    AU Post and their latest price increase! They have removed the 0-250g range so all parcels under 500g now cost the same.

    Thought about using photobucket because of this. You have to register though right? You have to now with imageshack because this pop-up window prevents you from getting your link once you've uploaded an image - easy way around it is to go right-click 'select all' and copy / paste to notepad
    Photobucket is worth it, though the site is a bit laggy as it has quite a few ads it gets its job done.

    What the hell, the quality of their service is mediocre at best and they're expecting us to pay more now? Damn them.

    I hear ya buddy. Just keep going until she gives up

    Almost same boat, but she has accepted it now.

    Really, our hobby is no different from say, guys who mess about with cars and stuff. Only we probably have more fun, and spend less money!

    Damn malware, and damn anti-virus software not catching it in time. I think it's finally cleared, after many reboots and a fresh download of anti-malware on another computer. The constant "this application needs permission to run" messages haven't come back since my last reboot. I'm usually so careful, but it just takes one bad webpage...

    Lol. You don't know how right you are. I used to be into cars. I did supersprinting, skid pans, dirt days etc, 1-2 a month. And each of those days cost between $200-$500. Plus one year I worked out i dropped 1/2 of the money I earned that year into modding the engine and suspension of one said car (about 30K all up). The GF was the only reason that wasnt 4/5 of my income.

    And to top it all off, you're never happy with it. You always want that little bit more power.

    So yeah, collecting TFs is definately better than being into cars.
