Dave - that is most certainly *not* our intention. We only have one active
subscriber list and that is for our newsletter. The Photo Fix Challenge is not connected to that. If you have unsubscribed from the newsletter or from an older list and you don't think it worked, email and I'll see to it personally that the problem is sorted out. We have never sold subscriber information to a third party and only very occasionally passed such information on to third parties when we have made it very clear that we might do this and *always* with an option to opt out.

Look, I bend over backwards to protect the interests of DPNow.com readers.
I'm a professional journalist of 22 years reputation. I set up DPNow five years ago as a serious resource for people interested in digital photography. It's a labour of love. I abhor spammers and spamming and if you wish to associate DPNow with this activity I must protest. If you think that DPNow is guilty of spamming and stealing innocent people's details for such an activity a) show me the evidence and b) if you can't, will you apologise? I urge you to save your energies for fighting those that really deserve it. To answer your question, if we get a sponsor for a competion that asks for the details of entrants, we make it clear to them that they can only expect the details of entrants if these entrants individually grant permission. We will never run a competition like this without this stipulation and the vast majority of competitions the sponsor does not ask for entrants details anyway. And we would never run a competition on these terms with a sponsor who is not reputable. This month's competition is to win a Casio digital camera and is sponsored by Casio, but they have not asked for entrants details and even if they asked now, we would not provide them. It's been many months since we ran a competition where the sponsor requested entrants details. Assuming you're not just a troll out to wind up someone like me who takes these accusations seriously, you're shooting at your own side and unfairly tarnishing what I believe is good reputation. If you are a troll, well, touché. Ian Digital Photography Now http://dpnow.com "Kinon O'Cann" wrote in message ... "Digital Photography Now" wrote in message ...

And anyone with a brain knows that opt-out plans are simply a scam to verify a working e-mail address. Nice try, but please spam some other NG.

That's a very good site and we certainly aspire to emulate and develop our
own take on what they have achieved. Variety is the spice of life, after all! By the way, DPNow doesn't charge readers or visitors anything. The subscription newsletter we run is completely free too.

I am not saying your a spammer or not. However, there are major trust issues
and the fact that you share our information makes that trust issue even more of an issue. Like the one guy asked how do you know what those third parties do with the information once you pass it along. Frankly, you shouldn't be passing it along. It is our information and we DO NOT expressly give you or anyone else rights to give it away, sell it or otherwise. You have a lot of nerve. If you really want to be a good business and web site you would do more to consider things like this. The last thing I need is you helping spammers send me more spam for dick pills and prescription medications. R "Digital Photography Now" wrote in message ...

If you have unsubscribed from the newsletter or from an older list and you don't think it worked, email and I'll see to it personally that the problem is sorted out. Yes, it's the newsletter I was referring to. I may have done you a disservice by calling it spamming for which I apologise but I have unsubscribed at least twice, possibly three times each time a new newsletter has turned up. I can say that I've never received email from any other source on that email address as I create new and unique addresses for all subscriptions so I can easily identify "rogue" companies who pass on details without my permission. You are not one of them. I've emailed you the details of the address -- Dave Our business in life is not to succeed, but to continue to fail in good spirits. Robert Louis Stevenson |

Already done at Worth1000.com.
Now if you want to gain interest, how-a-bout an erotic version of worth1000.com? Now that would be interesting. "Digital Photography Now" wrote in message ...
