[Deptheads] Re: Photos on Strategicon.net, please, and hopefully sent to me

[Tanya]

Teri's photos are up on the web site. They have been since this weekend. I will try to get ours up next (were buried in Keith photos). Then I'll see about giving them meaningful names.

In my copious free time, I will see about adding a bulk upload feature, or just figuring out how to use a more robust album app.

As for any other photos, I haven't received them. Facebook photos might as well be in no mans land as far as me getting them to the website, unless someone gives me *explicit* instructions on how to get them off en mass. [note, I will not add any apps or whatever they call the extras to my facebook account.]

You all may be into facebook and twitter, but Eric and I aren't. I only made accounts because it was advised for job searching. I have gotten little or no personal use out of either that I couldn't have gotten by lurking anonymously or creating on my own website. Unfortunately for you all that means anything you want on the website you have to tell me how to do it, or send the data separately.

Due to actions by some of the previous Strategicon people Catalyst was very hesitant to get involved in our convention again and he and his team have done a lot to turn that around. Historican, Origins and many of the other east coast conventions host Battletech events by the dozens and there is no reason why we can't get that big, The active groups back east regularly host tournaments with $50 entrance fees and something like that would be a great additon to our line up.

I have asked Christopher to be quiet and just run his games and he has told me he will do so in the future. If any of you have any problems with him in the future, please contact me immediately.
