04 Jul 01 - 04:03 AM (#498073) Subject: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Pene Azul Hello Mudcatters, I just changed the name of "Mudcat Resources" to "Member Photos & Info." "Mudcat Resources" was a good name when bbc ran it as an external site. I changed the name so it would be more descriptive for our collection of members' photos, email addresses, birthdays and profiles. Many thanks to bbc for starting this section and for the many hours of work she contributed. Thanks also to all who have contributed photos and info. You can access Member Photos & Info (http://www.mudcat.org/photos/index.cfm) through the Quick Links drop-down menu. I hope to add it to the banner soon. I have added a few features and made a few changes to the design. I plan to make several more improvements soon. To submit photos (in .jpg format) or info please e-mail me at jeff@mudcat.org or send me a personal message. If you have your photos online, you can send me the URL. Let's have more submissions, folks.
Thanks, |

04 Jul 01 - 04:24 AM (#498084) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Banjer Thanks Pene, for the reminder. Sometimes us 'regulars' just seem to have time to check in, glance at the trhread titles and run. It was fun to take a few minutes and peruse through the members pictures and profiles! Without your reminder that it was there I probably wouldn't have taken teh time. Thanks again for BBC's (and her son David) efforts, and you for continuing the Mudcat tradition! |

04 Jul 01 - 04:28 AM (#498085) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Pene Azul Thank you for the reminder, Banjer. I certainly should have thanked David, a fine and intelligent young man. Jeff |

04 Jul 01 - 04:31 AM (#498086) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Naemanson Looks good Pene! Thanks. Fellow mudcatters, as you peruse the photos please notice how few come from this year! We are falling down on the job guys! Let's get those shutters clicking and get the pictures in to Pene. Bill, Sam, and Ian's trip would be a good place to start. I know they were taking pictures. Where are they guys? |

04 Jul 01 - 07:42 AM (#498154) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Jon Freeman Looking good Jeff! Kendall, I just use a 35mm camera and use a scanner for sending pictures. Jon |

04 Jul 01 - 07:53 AM (#498162) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: bbc Thanks, Jeff, for carrying on the work; it does take time. One request for our members--please check your email addresses every now & then. If your current address isn't on the list, folks won't be able to reach you. Also, I think some of the members have changed their user names & not updated on the member photos & info. sections. Thanks again for helping us keep in touch! best to all, bbc |

Looks like he will make some money w/ this in the future! I'm a proud mom. bbc |

04 Jul 01 - 07:58 AM (#498166) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Noreen Yes, Jon, I scanned a couple of ordinary photos in, and have just got round to sending jpegs to Pene as above. So now you can see me in Mudcat Resources for the first time. Must be lots of new (and old) members who aren't there. It's good to be able to see what people really look like- it's usually very different from my mental image created from reading text messages. I'll send the details of my Mudcat Gathering photos too. Still more to come- Coble, I'd like to see those you took of us playing on the high seas on the way to the Germany Gathering.... ah, go on! Great work, Jeff. Noreen |
|
04 Jul 01 - 08:03 AM (#498168) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: mooman Dear Noreen, I just sent Jeff copies of the German Gathering photos I took! Perhaps you could add the "High Seas" ones and anything important I missed that you have to them? Very best regards Richard |

04 Jul 01 - 08:07 AM (#498170) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Geoff the Duck The new layout makes some sense. The Mudcatters' Profiles could certainly come in handy some time. Just one query Jeff, what has happened to the Events pages? I cannot seem to find them. Have they disappeared completely, or do you intend to resurrect them as part of the revamped new section? Please do not think I am trying to criticise, I know how much time and effort it can take to organise things. I am just curious to know! Keep up the good work! Geoff the Duck

04 Jul 01 - 08:36 AM (#498187) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Noreen Geoff, go to Photos first, then you'll find Events as part of it. |
|
04 Jul 01 - 08:39 AM (#498191) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Noreen Ah, Richard... Jeff's now got two copies of most of the Germany pics then! I'd forgotten they were originally yours. Should have put a copyright symbol on them- my fault. Noreen |
|
04 Jul 01 - 09:21 AM (#498209) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: mooman Dear Noreen, My email to Jeff has got stuck and won't go for some reason so thanks for letting me know! I'll therefore delete it from the outbox so he won't then get two lots of the Germany photos. Anyway, your's have much better captions! P.S. No "ownership" problems as far as I'm concerned, they were always meant for sharing!! Take care Richard |

04 Jul 01 - 10:02 AM (#498249) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Noreen Thanks, Richard. Hope Jeff comes back to read this thread because I fear I have totally confused him now... *grin* Noreen |

04 Jul 01 - 10:26 AM (#498265) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: GeorgeH What makes anyone think I want to know what they look like? (OK, I could make exceptions to this rule, but then I'd risk being accused of either sexism or being a dirty old man . . .) More particularly, what makes you think I'd want any of you to see what I actually look like (or, worse still, what my desk looks like . . .) Just a passing thought . . G. |

04 Jul 01 - 10:54 AM (#498283) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Geoff the Duck Okay....... slap my wrists! For some reason I didn't notice that a second line of options had appeared below the first ones. I have now found what I had previously misssed. Quack! |

04 Jul 01 - 11:58 AM (#498325) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: wysiwyg Jeff, that is great! I especially appreciate the birthdays by chrono list-- knowing who is in which generation. Thanks for updating my name change and getting my e-mail in there. Since I am called "Praise" in so many of the old posts, do you think it would be helpful to list my name in there as "WYSIWYG (aka Praise)"? If not, I guess the caption on the "Praise Meets AMos & Barky" photo ought to be changed too. Would it be helpful to you if I test e-mail all the addresses and let you know of any dead ones, and/or PM the owners to request an update? ~Susan |

If you don't want anyone to see yours, don't post it! Again, so simple! (I certainly would not put up a picture of MY office!) Dave Oesterreich |

04 Jul 01 - 01:04 PM (#498360) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: GeorgeH DaveO: Not everything I say is to be taken too seriously! However, you're right - I should have balanced my "silly" remarks with an acknowledgment of the fact that this is a great feature, which a lot of people have worked hard on . . sorry if I actually offended! Cheers! G. |

04 Jul 01 - 02:32 PM (#498426) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: wysiwyg Well, just so newer members know-- the idea of the Photos is to make it easier to find other Mudcatters at festivals. ~S~ |

04 Jul 01 - 02:55 PM (#498440) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: katlaughing Oh, sure, Jeffdarlin', put everybody else's b-day in there but mine! Perfectly fine with me as I am age-less anyway! **BG** Pity, though, I did enjoy sharing the day with Shambs. You have done a WONDERFUL job of carrying on what bbc and David did so well. Thank you so much! It just looks grand. And, it is SO NICE to see you around here, again! luvyakat |

04 Jul 01 - 03:42 PM (#498473) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: gnu Far out, man ! Seeing the faces of the thoughts, dreams, arguements and personalities I have known for this past half year was quite an experience. Soon as I get me a new PC, hopefully in a month or two, if the summer "provides", I'm gettin a scanner with and sendin in a couple o snaps o me. |
|
04 Jul 01 - 04:00 PM (#498478) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: McGrath of Harlow I think the photos are mainly good for putting a face on the people with whom we are in touch through the Mudcat. Given the fact we're scattered round the globe, I think the chances of ever getting to meet most people directly is pretty remote. But faces and pictures make people real, and that probably helpd to keep us more civil than we might sometimes become in times of disagreement.
So I really wish there were lots more people putting pictures into the rogues gallery. If they are shy, and want to stay anonymous, they could always wear disguises or false beards or even masks. Or cartoons. |

04 Jul 01 - 04:20 PM (#498483) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Banjer Gnu, if you want to get your pics on before you get equipped just PM or e-mail me. I will send you my address and you can send me the pics. I will scan them and upload them to Jeff. This offer good for anyone else that would like to get pics on that haven't a scanner. More than happy to do it! e-mail addy is reanes1@gte.net |

04 Jul 01 - 05:39 PM (#498511) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Naemanson I work cheap, transportation and food. (I need to control the urge to hit the submit button.) |

04 Jul 01 - 05:52 PM (#498519) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Peter T. No, you have to be one of Rick's more deluded students to carry his luggage, in the vain hope that one day he will say, "He was a student of mine, I can't even carry X's instrument case now". He hasn't carried anyone else's case in my memory, so maybe this is his way of flattering his ex-students and making the ever-receding goal recede even further for his current ones. The deluded students fight to carry his luggage, it is pathetic. He has to fight them off when he goes to the airport, etc. I have seen fistfights break out over Rick's carryon luggage. Those of us who are undeluded, and are not worthy even to carry his flatpicks, enjoy this macabre spectacle. yours, Peter T. |

04 Jul 01 - 06:40 PM (#498536) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: Naemanson Does it help that I can play one of the songs on his CD, Lifeline? Of course my use of the word "play" is open to question and interpretation.... |
|
04 Jul 01 - 06:46 PM (#498541) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: CarolC I think I'd follow him around just to see the spectacle of the fistfights over his luggage. In fact I might even pay to see that. |

05 Jul 01 - 08:27 PM (#499391) Subject: RE: Resources now Member Photos & Info From: catspaw49 Hey Rick.....Mick's right. You need an opening act and someone to warm the joint up. I could do a few simple ass ditties and a little schtick, Mick could do a few of his, Swan could join in for a little slapstick schtick..........Think about it. Spaw |
