Some amazing images of early thrones- apparently all you needed was a stone and then you could build a throne around it.

Hello Doug good to see the talking heads on the left side of the screen except for the ifa one. I see that you are still fighting the tyranny of the square powerpoint slide. I got a few minutes in with the ifa before giving up because I am never going to listen to anybody from the ifa anyway because I don't need a licence to dig but also there was no coverage of the slide. They mentioned logos and pointed towards stuff on a screen. One rule for the plebs and another for public servant report writers? Would it make them look less important or didn't they have any current slides of them doing any field work?

There were no slides per se. There was a holding slide of the new CIfA logo up on the screen- it is the logo in the video intro. I took a little artistic license and decided to not include that in the general talk because I thought it would be too boring to have the same logo there the whole time. They reference it but other than that the speakers had no slides.
As for personal taste- yep, I realise the subject of all of these videos are pretty diverse and not everyone is going to be interested and/or agree and/or like presentation style, etc. etc. of each video. Just hoping that at least one of the videos is of interest to everyone here.
Cheers for the feedback a while back about the slides on the left :face-approve:. With the internet I can see people watching them but almost no one ever comments to let me know about ways to improve them or if they like them.
