Ok, ever since I showed up here two months ago, I've been wanting to have this changed, but never got around to it...who is it please that can get this spelling mistake taken care of?
(on the portfolio upload pages)
Enter comma-seperated keywords for photo/print searching.

teh korrect speling is: separated

and is there a way to add a link to the (Others) favorite photgraphs?
I'd like to be able to see in a click what images people like and who has chosen them without having to scour my entire profile.

Ok...I've had my soapbox and tangent. Next ! ;-)

I can assure you that this was a typo since Drew and I are both grammar nazis!

And as far as the favorites listing, we've got that on our todo list.

I hate to point out another typo, but favorites should be spelled favourites...

Not in this neck of the woods. And there's no "u" in Behavior or Color either (just in case that comes up).

From the Oxford University Press's website, an article entitled "How we research our Canadian Dictionaries":

By examining our extensive Canadian databases, our lexicographers have been able to determine which, in fact, is the more common spelling: colour, theatre and program. Favoured Canadian pronunciations have also been determined by surveying a nationwide group of respondents.

In area, of course.
(With nearly 90 percent of Canadians living within 300 kilometers (about 240 miles) of the southern border Canada shares with the U.S.)

Do you blame us? It's damn cold if you go any further than that! :0)

Yeah, as far as population we're not even close to the 'biggest'! 35th, I think?

By the way, my bragging about Canada says nothing bad about you guys in the USA! We really do love you!

And we love y'all, too! I found another citation that says that 90% of Canadians live within 100 miles--you're getting closer all the time! (I also think I read that 27 US states have land north of Canada's southern-most point.) We're all 'mericans together, no?

Yeah, parts of California are further north than the southernmost point of Ontario...
