Ok Red if you want me over here I'm gonna have to start my own topic because the stuff you guys talk about is way beyond me. Maybe that's a sign I shouldn't be here....nah. I'm staying. I think I'm gonna have to stay in here though under this topic. I'm not as computer wise as you other "Tekkers".
By the way Red what's going on with our little dare over at the AF...?? I don't see any pink poodles yet....

It looks cold but it actually was a beautiful day. I know it's hard to tell from the picture but it was an awesome day to be out shooting.
Are you into photo??

nope i dont put my stuff online. that is the fastest way i know to make it become public property and lose all your copyrights to them.

the one that took the first place in the first contest and then took 2nd in the over all contest for several schools in different states. was a christmas tree one.

it really

the dean of the college because it was not the school tree.

but since it got the school its first couple awards ever. he was

because of it.

when he found out it was not even a real tree he was upset again but when he found out it was a fake, fake tree he was fit to be hogtied by his nose.

i was told to go off campus for some other shots so he could not find me, while he had time to cool down. he was

the tree that was a fake , fake tree was nothing but lights on wires around a lampost that if you looked at it did not really look like a tree but since i monkeyed with the photo by short exposer then burning it in and used filters to get all the lights proper it looked like a real tree,

man them college deans have no sense of humor when you fool them like that.

Tak where did you go...? I asked you a question a few posts back?
Anyway there is this singing songwriting chick you gotta hear. Her name is Jill Barber. If you're interested let me know and I'll try to get some of her stuff to you. You can't download any off the internet as far as I know. But I bought a cd.

Hey, welcome YControl

I like taking pics too but my old camera is so outdated, it doesn't work well with XP. I'll look up my best pic for you though.

It was supposedly published in a picture book, I'll never know since the book was $80.00!

Welcome aboard YControl!

I'm not much of a photography whiz either. Just never really had the opportunity I suppose. I do like messing around with photoshop though

Hey welcome aboard! glad you made it here. Don't worry about the tech stuff, the OT section can be just as fun, if more and less serious.

I forgot about the dare thread I'll have to go check it out.

Nice place you got here Red. I really like it. I think I'll stick around if you don't mind. I think maybe I won't wander to far from my Yeah Yeah Yeah topic though if that's alright with you. Although I will look to see if there's anything I can add in the other topics.
Meanwhile ~ Yes you must get on that dare, we can't wait forever. You will be labeled a chicken. Or even worse...a Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Well tonight it's actually more active then usual but lately it's been dead. but it's also been dead at a/f. Some people come from other forums, some people just joined out of no where. Google helps somewhat and so does our UD team since it brought us a few members. Everything comes from their own corner.

Yup, same one. Honestly one of the main reasons I joined AF at the time was because I was having trouble getting into this forum, and wanted to ask Red about it

But I saw a few familiar faces over there and decided to stick around
