You guys still haven't found the change/addition I was talking about... and no hints either... when somebody finds it I will confirm. The change took place in the last week or so...

The photo on the "markings" technical information page was changed MONTHS ago... you guys just don't visit it very often. and the addition of the Witness Marks photo and information was made over a month ago as well.

As far as the front page change... Yes, it was from a post this week. I sanitized the numbers and any visible markings so it represents a typical P.08 just like the last one. I chose it because it is a rather good photo with little shadow to detract from the gun and because it has a great set of grips don't you think?

I intend to randomly change this front page photo from time to time just to see who is paying attention... Anyone who has a good photo of a Luger that they would like to submit for this purpose can send it to the official forum email address: lugerforum@yahoo.com

My preference is for crisp focus and as little shadow as possible... a white background makes the photo easier to use, but any color that displays the gun well is acceptable.

With enough encouragement and adequate submissions from the peanut gallery, I may re-institute the "Luger of the Month" photo essay feature that we had the first year...and when the month is over the photo(s) will be retired to the Member Gallery. lacking sufficient quality photos for a Luger of the Month, I will just rename the feature to be the "Featured Luger" and it will change as adequate replacement photos and descriptions are submitted.

Let's get them cameras clicking folks!
