This is the current Honours List. Thanks to all of you for getting involved.
I've thought of a few more categories;
Services to New York Tourism, Maxwell1295 in honour of those marvellous series Alan creates and posts.
Services to P&S Photography, LaRee is always very active with her P&S
Most Energetic Thread, Séamuis innocently started a thread before the election that turned into a marathon debate.
Services to Competitons, Bruce (Bramela) is always active in the games and competitions, he even promotes the P&S competition in his Sig.
I have also Confirmed Hinman and Jamesk8752 for their respective categories. Hin is extremely active with his addiction, he could probably have his own 'Store Front' in the Marketplace Forum. Jamesk8752 appears to be in remission and is now stockpiling.

I agree that Matt has done wonders for my understanding on flash use.
I would also like to nominate Benjikan (I hope I spelled that right, my memory isn't what it used to be, LOL) for sharing his wealth of knowledge in post processing. Thanks to him I can make a photo "POP" right off the page.
