I will christen it with a risotto in a couple of days. Wondering if anyone has any recipe suggestions for the saucier. (That name always makes me think of Apocalypse Now!)

For context, our club's website is hosted by GoDaddy. I was recently asked to help out with some of the webmaster responsibilities because the guy in that role doesn't have the bandwidth to give enough time to it. That's fine for page creation etc. but the problem is that he is the account holder - pays the fees and claims back the cost from the club and gets all communication about the domain. The problem is that he's becoming pretty unreliable because he can't dedicate enough of his time when needed and I can't contact GoDaddy because his personal email is in the owner account. The risk is that he drops off the radar altogether and we're stuck. I can see that GoDaddy allows account delegates but it seems that the account owner still has to approve any delegate actions. What we really need is role-based ownership. Does anyone know if that's possible?

I'm building a tabletop photography platform. It will have a deep drawer at the bottom and a couple of open shelves for storing stands, The top has an opening to allow me inlay frosted or translucent white acrylic panels and I want to add a light source for uplit shots. I may also use it as a traditional light box for sorting slides. I've got a couple of things to work out.

  1. What kind of lighting would work best for this? My main light sources are speed lights combined with soft boxes, umbrellas etc. Can I use this approach for uplighting?
  2. If I need a continuous light source, what type of source?
  3. If it's continuous, roughly what distance do I need between the light and the acrylic panel? I need that info to determine where to place the stop shelf so that the light source is not too far away given the loss lights through the acrylic.

Grateful for any advice.
