I did actually send the image in, just think I forgot to mention my boards.ie username. I just replied to your mail there at lunch time so you should have that there now.

faceman · 01-11-2012 3:51pm

Uh oh. I sent my image last night.

I'll drop Darren a message

Where did you send it to? It should have been sent to boardsbook@gmail.com and not to Darren

Yeah I sent it to that address. It was a 6mb file, could that be why it didn't go through?

feylya · 01-11-2012 4:11pm

Mine is on it's way now.

No sign of it, I checked spam etc. but don't see it anywhere. Can you try again? Is it possible to reduce the file size a little?

Morrisseeee · 01-11-2012 4:31pm

Mine's on the way, either tonight or first thing tomorrow, if that's OK ?!

Yeah no probs. Won't be able to do it though till later on after 8 but will get it across ASAP!

5unflower · 01-11-2012 5:45pm

Sent mine last night (again), after problems with it not being there as attachment? Let me know if there were still any problems with it

Teferi · 01-11-2012 6:02pm

Picture sent. Thanks for doing this

As soon as possible please - we are very tight for time!

mikka631 · 01-11-2012 8:49pm

Anything up to 10Mb should be fine by email though it will depend on your provider. If you send and don't get a bounce back with transmission problems or errors then your email must have gone somewhere so worth checking your email transaction logs.
Maybe for those having problems with emailing large sized image files you could set up an ftp account, upload only, with username and password sent in two seperate pm's with the account closing on Sunday.

Gmail allows emails of over 20mb AFAIK. So if your provider doesn't allow large emails just open a gmail account and send it!

okmqaz42 · 02-11-2012 10:16am

Really sorry folks, classic mail sitting in the outbox moment. You should have my shot now.
Sorry again.

Morrisseeee · 02-11-2012 10:53am

Sent mine there this morning

I've paid, I just couldn't get to my photo archive last night. Sending shortly.

dinneenp · 02-11-2012 4:01pm

I have a quesition and an idea...
questions- should there be a seperate thread for talk & ideas (like my ides below) for the Photobook or is this the thread to use?
My idea- The evening could be a good opportunity to give away/swap any photography related magazines, books etc. that you have at home and you've read.
I know I have a fair few magazines & the odd book or two (Bryan Peterson) that I've read and could pass on....

This thread is fine for any and all discussion of the launch night - no need for extra threads

Sounds like a good idea, see what people come up with perhaps? The only thing I would say is that many people will be on what I hope will be a photowalk that day, so won't want to be carrying anything with them.. plus we will be going to a pub for drinks later and I for one am bad at minding things once I have had a few! The book will be my main focus of things not to lose

Tiriel · 02-11-2012 6:32pm

Ok, at the moment we are still missing photos from the following:

CabanSail
City-Exile
Buzz_Lightyear
toe_knee
thelastdj
The_Snipe

If you have sent it and are in this list - please try to resend. Otherwise we need to find another alternative!

They had a deadline with plenty of notice. The book needs to be uploaded to the publisher asap so please get them in this weekend

Buzz Lightyear · 04-11-2012 2:56pm

I have to apologise, I only got to pop mine over on Saturday. If there are any difficulties please let me know.

GristlyEnd · 05-11-2012 12:11am

A few of you would have received an email from me today about your photo submission. Can you please get back to me urgently on this.

Thanks
Darren

Thanks Darren - yes, that was the wrong photo. And thanks for the chance to send on the correct one.

I like the sound of that idea too, I have quite a few magazines and a few books which I don't use anymore (having looked at my shots, maybe I should get back to reading again:P), which I would be delighted to swap/pass on to someone who is grateful for them!!! I would have to stay overnight anyhow so would have the car with me, and have no problem minding stuff for people if we end up in the same area afterwards....

Is there a particular place where ye usually stay overnight? Or do ye all go your own ways after the event is finished? (This question is aimed at those traveling further afield btw)!!!

If a photowalk is being arranged, I presume it's on the same day as the launch? How early would ye start? (Never been on one:o)

Just trying to sort out whether to arrange accommodation for one or two nights, with or without my kids etc etc:D

Go without the kids! (I have kids too) You'll have the full day/evening to yourself and be able to photograph all day & fully enjoy the evening...

For photowalk the afternoon would suit me best. I'll be driving over from Galway that morning.
I'm sure a route will be planned. I havne't been on too many but I love photowalks- casual photographing while chatting to people & afterwards see two different takes/photos on the same stuff & see things that you missed.

Cheers for the offer to mind mags/books. I'll bring some along so.

Going on what I arranged last year. We started at 12 or 1 and I made people aware of the vague route before the day, then gave out a map at the start (it's a long walk) and gave my number so they could contact me when they got to town. I aim to do the same this time around. I included stops in 'areas' for lunch and a rest.
Your are free to come and go, with or without the kids, as you wish.

BTW: It ends at 6 the latest giving me time to get dinner/a rest before helping set up the Launch Location.

@SinisterDexter: are you happy to create the route for this year?

mumof2 · 06-11-2012 9:22pm

Sounds great, and so far it looks like I won't have de kids that weekend so should make it up in time for de photo walk.

Tips on where ye might usually overnight would be welcome (from those that normally do), as staying near the Red Cow area might not be convenient if the photo walk is in Dublin Zoo!

Cheers:-)

Tiriel · 06-11-2012 10:00pm

I would recommend staying as central as possible, the walk will most likely be city centre and the launch is on Camden Street, with drinks afterwards in that area.

GristlyEnd · 07-11-2012 2:51pm

So we're looking at having a raffle again this year. Anybody feel like donating a prize for it? As usual, all profits will go to charity.

BTW The book has gone to the printers
