Pixalo Member of the Month - August 07

Pixalo Member of the Month - August 07

The first winner of this award is a member who has been at Pixalo a long time. During Pixalo's ups & downs, he has risen above all the politics and constantly been an asset, always welcoming new members, taking time to answer questions and to comment on photos (both in the gallery and on the forums). Kindly providing reviews of the equipment he has knowledge of.

All of his photography is excellent but some of his work has been inspirational to other members, with his use (and introduction) of the LucusArt photo filter spawned a mini ‘craze’. He is also a past winner of our ‘Pixalo Theme Fortnight Competition’ and on more than one occasion has been in the top 3 of our “Monthly Competition” .

A gentleman who gets involved with all parts of the site, offers ideas and suggestions, is always polite, takes the ribbing we and the other regulars give him with good humour and is basically an all round nice guy. So without further a do, the Pixalo Crew are pleased to congratulate P-E as the first (and very worthy) Member of the Month.

Very well done, thoroughly deserved!!

So the big question to P-E himself is, are you going to break your no avatar habit and accept our funky new MotM one for this month?

Very much deserved and worthy winner of the first title! Congratulations P-E!

P-E · 02-08-2007, 19:11

What a nice surprise.

Not sure what to say really

apart from thanks Pixalo Crew

and everyone's kind comments.

Just like to say having only been into photography for approx 3 years and finding it quite by accident, I've learnt an awful lot (still lots to learn) in the time I've been here thanks to the helpful knowledge of both Crew and Members who not only post excellent tips/advice but have answered my PM's promptly & politely

Thanks for letting me be a part of a wonderful forum

P.S As you have made the effort to produce an avatar I will be pleased to use it for the month.......even though it looks nothing like me (Charlotte)

......wrong colour as I've been working outside this week and nicely bronzed

Thanks again Ian.
