Say, do you prefer the pages that just feature a single room, the pages that feature a dozen or so, the animated slideshows, thimbnails, .... In other words, in what way do you prefer to view the show report? I know Steve G. likes to see the report, if possible, as one gigantic tallll page with everything. Also realize that if there are thumbnails, people tend to just click on the thumbnails they think will be cool and miss a lot of what happened at the show. Manufacturers have an easier time linking to our reports if they can just link to one page that has the room, and only the room, they were exhbitted in. Anyway, lots of options and lots of people with different tastes... I never really decide how I am going to put it together until after the show - but right now I am going to model the CES 2007 news montage dailies on CEDIA 2006 and the show report proper on the HE 2006 8-part report - but putting more pictures in the report and perhaps omitting the separate room-by-room pages and slideshows all together. Enjoy! -Mike Hey, thanks guys!

Here's a possible test - see what happens if you don't update your website for a few days or even a week after the Next Big Show. Will you get emails like "Did you miss the show?" or "Are you snowed in?" or "I want hirez photos NOW!!!" I must admit, that last one would probably be me ;) You are providing a nice, free way to get an online glimpse of high-end audio. It's not the "real thing" - i.e. attending in person - nor can it be... But the old saying holds true - a picture is worth a thousand words. - Steve O. Mike & Neli,

What makes your photos unique is the quality and clarity of the photography. Many sites have very small pictures that are focused on point and shoot quickies versus a real photograph that has been composed and properly rendered. I like the commentary but the pictures really capture my imagination. I can go through one of your show reports and really feel like I attended. I get a real sense of the location, the rooms, the personalities, and finally the equipment. I have to come down on the side of the fence that the photos are the best part and any commentary is just icing. Keep up the great work and let us know if you change any of your equipment in the future. 15,000 photos is a tremendous amount of pictures but I believe I speak for many of us when I say it is really appreciated.
