Hi,
I'm new to DPchallenge.
I've decided to post a first challenge entry even if I wasn't realy satisfied by the picture. Nevertheles I thought that by posting it I could get some constructive comments ad enter a better one next time.
So could somebody transnlate for me the significance of this - "IMO DNMC"
I'm sure it's a kind of a constructive critique but what???? ;-)

In DPC-speak that means: "In My Opinion, Does Not Meet Challenge". I didn't leave that comment by the way, its a common phrase around here :/

It means - in my opinion it does not meet the challenge.

Is it me or is there an echo in here??

Hahahahaha....judging by the quick responses it seems that we have all received that at one time or another...so in other words...welcome to DPC. And yes...there will be helpful comments along the way.

there should be a topic with all translations like this... ;-)

like:

WTG = way to go
OOF = out of focus
DOF = depth of field
POV = point of view

uhm... and many more :)

They are actually called a 'Quark' which stands for Quickly Understood Abbreviated Response Key.

FBWL -Frederick Biological Warfare Laboratory

PMD is an extension in Windows.

Somehow I don't think this is what you want...what context are they used in?

thank you :D

If that is for me and the response I emailed, you are most welcome. Now let me ask, are you sorry you asked or did you laugh?

EDIT: Oh...sorry, it appears it was for the translation in the thread (as I slap my forehead and remind myself to READ before responding)
