[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 3030526, member: 36230"]There's a difference between someone coming here to act like an idiot and someone genuinely new. If certain members cannot see the difference, to hell with them. Yes, this is a two-way street and most of us (aside from those wanting to play expert anyway) expect new folks to do their part and at least attempt to learn for themselves. It can be hard and much doesn't make a lot of sense to the uninitiated, but the effort is what counts. You seem sincere to me and for this reason alone I see no reason for anyone to be giving you smack. The same with your photography. There's a couple guys here who post complete crap yet act as if they're producing professional quality images, and all while belittling the results of others. If you need help with imaging, simply ask, but be sure to explain exactly what you want to achieve and what you have to work with. Some folks haven't a problem going out and dropping a few hundred or even a couple grand on a dedicated macro and/or setup, but this isn't for everyone. Perfectly acceptable coin images can be produced with even the most basic and/or inexpensive equipment; the key is knowing how to use it.
