I have to say I do miss Aggie and her contributions here. I mentioned in a thread once about lusting after a particular camera but could not afford a few grand for it. She PM'd and offered to post her one from the US to Ireland as a loan until I could afford one. I did actually decline but I'll never forget that generosity.
I don't actually know what the falling out was over and its probably not important to know. But I'm wondering if you guys could all kiss and make up?
one's generosity to some should not excuse one's bad behavior to others.
Your 'feeling' was right...I know ours was.I was going to get a subscription before the first issue but I had a bad feeling about it and even after I subscribed once the first issue came out something told me it was a bad move.
I seldom visit the forums these days but in the past few weeks have been here a couple of times. I noticed no Aggie or Emulsion magazine info that is current. What happened?
Anyone know what is going on and where she is these days on the forums?
SNIP
from what i remember, she was upset about photographs posted in the
gallery and left apug and pulled sponsorship.
i have no idea where she is now, i know she is at tuan's site once in a blue moon.
maybe people on the LF site have a better idea where she is, and what she is doing,
i think david parker is still in touch with her ...

Last I was in touch, she said Dave Parker wasn't involved in the magazine anymore, though his wife does press checks, which are infrequent, so they're not in contact often.
Aggie underwent gall bladder surgery a couple of weeks ago and she is currently recuperating. As I posted on the Large Format forum if you are missing any issues please send me an e mail and I will gladly pass the information along to Aggie.
The magazine is still being published, she is currently working on issues 5, 6 and 7 hoping to get issue 5 printed as soon as she has recuperated and get the following issues ready ahead of time so delays like those which have been happening in the present do not repeat.
After all of the fuss over Kodak not answering questions directed to them, I think that it is incumbent on Aggie to do the same in some fashion or another, even if she does not like APUG any more.
Why do we get no answer?
She would. I kind of miss her. And Jorge too.I'd delete that as a personal attack, FC, but I'll leave it, because Aggie would probably take it as a complement.
Curt- if you knew Aggie, you'd not ask that question. Feisty is an understatement when describing her. Aggie would go to hell and kick Satan himself out and start redecorating if given the chance. And she's not one to withhold commentary or opinion for anything. She's had aches, pains, and major surgery before, and been posting away at 10+ posts per day fresh out of the recovery room. The silence therefore is deafening.
Aggie is a singular person - no denying that.
I'd still like to get Issue 4 (I have 1 through 3) and I'm signed up for 2 years total.
There was nothing untruthful in what I said, even if it was stated a bit colorfully. She's a take-no-prisoners kind of woman. No personal attack intended there.
Knowing Aggie's nationality (same as mine) it is normal to express our opinions straight without much wrapping. Sometimes it can cause a few tensions though.She is certainly forthright with everyone in her opinions and I wish her well.

Wish her a speedy recovery.
