It makes no difference to me either way in all honesty whether one posts their stuff or not. I think if you want the exif data you can get it or ask for it. I also think that it's not the equipment that makes the image in alot of cases...more knowing what settings to use and how to vision the image before you shoot it. I've seen many excellent shots taken with a P&S camera and I've seen many not-so-great shots taken with a high end DSLR and lens. I would hate someone new to photography think that (and I think it's easy to send that kind of message) they have to go out and buy high end equipment to get a nice image when that in many times is simply not the case. They should first learn how to use the settings to their advantage and I think that is way more important than equipment.
