Special Photo Contest: Win a Pentax 21mm Lens!

Under a forum member's name and membership type, there are a row of medals. Some are filled in and some are not. Sometimes there is a star. Sometimes there is a trophy.

What do these all mean?

Cheers!

True, but Mel Brooks borrowed that line from a much older film

Treasure of the Sierra Madre is a classic, iconic Western, worth checkiing out. Maybe not quite as iconic as Blazing Saddles,,,
