Just want to bring any ‘old-school’ friend’s attention to William & Myself’s little archive of photos from our last day of school, ever. Its on Flickr, so if you have any photos from that day, you can either sign up (for free) and upload them yourself, or give them to William… who really wants Daniel / Fiona / Rebecca’s photos to add to the archives. Here’s two batches of photos from that day, from Me & Will:

If you have a digital camera and access to the interweb, you really need to get your ass on Flickr. Its like MySpace – but less shit. Or you can just check out everyone else’s ‘FlickrSteam’(s) via Callum’s Contacts.
I’ve updated my photo page again, I know its not ‘all there’ yet. In all honesty Flickr seems to work very well for me, but I know some of my friends prefer the safety and privacy of metacomment.com’s shores. So I’m using this funky PostcardViewer script, its flash- and I hate flash.
I’ve got other issues with it; restricted editing (unless you pay up), no user-downloading, you have to re-write a gallery from scratch if you add one image, its all driven by a really awful iPhoto / Photoshop script (its very manual), the quality isn’t that great and every time you visit the page your forced to download 3mb+ of images, every single image on the page… every time. I’ve only been messing with it for an hour or so, its mighty pretty- that’s no excuse.
Hey did you know my Photoblog is useless until iBlog 2 comes out? That’s beacuse I have screwed my iBlog settings into oblivion and when I think photo uploading these days I think Flickr. Maybe I’ll do it with Wordpress one day (or, as I said, iBlog 2).
So, there we go- I’ve fixed up a Photos Page. Just wanted to leave a note to self: I’m planning to upload last years ‘best of’ in a few areas- “general” “people” “places” “parties” – all the top notch photoshopped stuff that I never Flickr-ed. I also have to upload some real quality old-school tapes as we (Q, Bill and Fuzz) discovered there are a few forgotton moments on 20 or so 1hr DV tapes I re-discovered over the weekend. Watch out for that on:

From our short trek in the highlands of Scotland. More on Flickr.
