This is the first time i've logged in for ages andi really am gutted to read the sad news. Thoughts to friends and family at this time

800x600 , am i missing out on somthing by not setting this at a higher setting? my moniter is a 17" lcd thingy. It looks like i can set it higher but no lower.

Not sure, where do i look to find that out?

Thanks mad springer, i'll try that and see what happens!

I cant say i'm surprised with alot of the established members leaving in droves, i've thought about it too. The simple fact is the site is getting swamped under too much off topic jibberish. We had somthing good going here, that was a core of well informed experianced people who were willing to help newcomers and have some fun along the way, now most of those people have either left or just dont post anymore, the reason being there is very little sensible here to post on and if you do try to post somthing sensible it just degenerates into trivial nonsence over a period of 24hrs. Its the old saying "empty vessels makes the most noise", now when somone new comes on and posts a genuine question the replys are either daft, nonsensicle or just plain wrong. That sensible person then quite rightly goes elsewhere for advice and the only ones that are encouraged to join are the people who like to micky take and post nonsence, its an ever decreasing circle. That is what we have and why alot of respected guys are leaving. There was a time when my nephew came round i could quite happily leave him to his own devices on this site as i knew everything on here was suitable for a yongster who is mad keen on shooting, I would not do it at present. Teal and ern do a top job here, what used to be i would imagine a fairly simple and stress free task seems to have now turned into a nightmare full time job with people questioning every descision and every answer they give. At the end of the day its Teals site and what he says goes, if people dont like it they can vote with their feet (the problem is the wrong people have put on their walking boots). To all who have left, i totally understand why and hope things might improve enough to see you all back soon

I'm sorted, i started with the website and a chapter in one of my ferreting books, made quite a few mistakes and then seemed to crack it, i also get a good friend who is a fisherman to give me a bit of a crash course which helped alot (cant beat watching over someones sholder!) made about six and a half so far, and used them along with my existing stock last weekend and caught rabbits in them! very satisfing and as everyone has said very easy once you know how
