Who are all these Facebook people? I've never come across any of them on the site. None of them seem to put anything on the Gallery either.....weird!

Do you mean the paintings on POL's Facebook page? If so, then an awful lot of the paintings are taken by POL off their Pinterest page and some other sources, rather than our gallery. Don't know why. I did ask a recently why so many of the paintings displayed on the POL Facebook page came from sources other than the gallery, but didn't get an answer. Perhaps POL think we have all seen what is on our gallery and are trying to show us something different? I personally would prefer to see the majority of the work displayed on POL's FB page coming from our gallery.

I sometimes think that we are in our own little corner and the rest of POL just walks on by.

The forum/facebook preference thing's a funny one - I organise a few car events and find that there are people who will only do one or the other. Don't know why, I use/enjoy both, especially when trying to get people to shows.

Haven't clue who they are as I don't do FB, so not worried.
