    Ankle weights on Tank Valve

    try moving your tank higher (put your BC a little bit lower on the tank)... this should lower your head but we can't give you much advice without a picture of you diving...

    What is the appropriate call on Marine VHF in these situations?

    USCG is not the only coast guard on the planet... If you travel abroad always check for local regulations... btw. little off topic but still nice for those who haven't seen it (German coast guard): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrYRY6kx550 have fun

    What is the appropriate call on Marine VHF in these situations?

    don't forget that in some countries channel 16 is not official anymore (but we still listen to it too). All new VHF devices should have a digital distress button (part of GMDSS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Maritime_Distress_Safety_System) and you should use that! but if someone is in...

    Image theft... what do you think?

    I'll repeat: Web IS public space! Maybe it's not the law but that's how it works... Web is so public that if I put a black picture on it most US citizens will call FBI and say that it might be a bomb :-) (since it's there and they don't know what it is - they just have to pass by and see it)

    Image ownership & credit

    if I copy a picture on your card from .jpg to .dat, will it be the same content and who will be the author? visual representation will be different enough (esp. on windows) to say it's something complletly different... if you ask windows who is the author of the file you'll see my name... I...

    Image ownership & credit

    Some more questions... If the fish is in the frame then she should have a right to say something! You may be the artist but there wouldn't be any art if the fish swims away... Why does the "artist" have any more rights than the unknowing model? If I own a memory card, do I own bits and...

    Image theft... what do you think?

    Yeah, I know it's not the law but you can use it as a pointer to make sure people reallise there is something very wrong with todays concept of "intellectual property"... btw. you shoud make a difference between selling picture on the web (and theft of such) and just plain putting them on the...

    Image theft... what do you think?

    If somone steals your car you'll have to walk, if somone copies your picture from the web you won't loose anything. If I want people to pay for my work I'll put them on a password protected page and sell a username/password combination. When they pay they can do whatever they want with MY work...

    Image theft... what do you think?

    I don't want to say my opinion on this topic because somone might steal it... Come on people, if you don't want it stolen be careful where you store it. If you put it on the web be sure to put at least a watermark on it...

    bad drop: ya pay yer money and take your chances?

    ok, you didn't know about the buoy but how DID you plan to surface? Or you didn't plan? Boat captain was probably wrong but I don't think he's the only one to blame...

    What's ScubaBoard worth to you?

    I've put 8... Diving info deserves a clear 10, but European diving community is pretty weak so it lacks a lot of details in that part - hence 8... On the other side, weak community is not a SB problem, it's more a European thing... (not just on SB)

    Some Manifold Questions!!! Please!!!

    No they don't and (just to make sure all people get it) they EXPLICITLY shouldn't be used as such... If you carry your twins by a manifold you put their o-rings to a lot of pressure which they are not supposed to bear... Never carry your doubles by manifold!!!!
