I'm not sure if anyone else has made it over to the Paul C. Buff forums but I just joined and took a look around. It must be new because there are few members and not a lot of posts yet. It looks like it might be another good place to learn and explore as well as getting Alien Bees specific help or information. There's a Lighting Setup forum that has some pretty good lighting diagrams, although I don't agree with all of them ;)

The link to the foums is:

I can be found there under the same name: TMR Design

I've just joined up, while i don't have alien bees (just to expensive to get it over here in australia), i do like the information regarding flash lighting.

Great link.

Sure Lotto. I figure that if a lot of us get in on the ground floor we can establish a really great community of people over there and it looks like that is happening.

I don't want anyone to misunderstand or think that the motivation was to take people from here or deter members from POTN. Quite the opposite in fact. Knowledge and information is power and the more we can learn the better off we are. Since the community of people that own and use Alien Bees products is so rapidly growing I feel that Paul Buff and his worker Bees can offer insight and information about their products that we might not see here.
My plan is to be as active there as I am here, so please don't think I am jumping ship in any way.

This is my Home :)
