Just wondering (:oops who the brain child is for POTN?

I am an avid user of Exhibit Engine - have been for years. Pekka did a great job developing that gallery script.
And it was through this site that I decided to get a Canon versus a Nikon. I ended up getting a 20D, now it is quite old but replacing my Mamyia 645 with a digital camera was a dream.

Anyway, thanks to all!
To this day I send people to POTN to read about Canon and its reviews.

As Jon has said, Pekka is the genius behind this site!

All hail Pekka! (if he hadnt I would still be shooting snapshots!)
