Follow-up survey on line:

If you enjoyed yourself at DLV this year, please let us know.

If something was wrong, we need to know about it, let us know so
we can do something about it.

The follow-up survey is now on line and we're asking all who
attended to please take a few minutes and fill this out.

It's on line at:

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/2007survey.html

We cannot over-emphasize how helpful this is in summarizing this
year's event and planning events to come. Yes, your opinion
matters and we appreciate the response to this survey.

This will remain on line for the rest of the month of May.

Final headcount:

Unless we have any long-belated "you forgot me" responses, our final
official headcount for DLV 2007 is 134. This is a new record, which
surpasses the 2005 total of 126.

Again, thanks to all who made DLV 2007 the success it was!

Call For Photos continues:

Everybody who attended should have now received the URL of the
temporary staging area in which the submitted photos are placed
for check-out and approval. If you attended and did not get
this URL, please let us know.

There are already several hundred on line now, with more on
the way.

Don't get left out! :) Please send in yours today.

How do you submit these, you ask? Here's how ...

1. E-mail, file attach using any sane method. The file attach
functions of Hotmail/Yahoo/Gmail all work fine. You may send
directly to either dlv@geekbabe.com or annie@annie.net

You may attach one image per e-mail, or many images per e-mail,
whatever works best for you. There are no "mailbox size limits"
on these accounts, so send away.

2. FTP. Please write in for the server/login/password information.

3. CD/DVD or floppy via snailmail (postal mail).

We had problems with this last year. Two of the submitted CDs
would not mount on any machine I had access to, both at home
and at work, and one did not have the images, but only links
(shortcuts) to them on the user's machine.

If you can't use 1 or 2 above, and need to send a CD/DVD, please
write in for the postal mail address. The CDs or floppies will
be returned if you want

4. Hardcopy prints via snailmail. Again, write in for the
postal mail address. Prints will be scanned and then returned.
Standard 4" x 6" mini-lab prints work very well for this and
reproduce very well on the web.

5. Links to a NORMAL (repeat NORMAL) web site with the images.
By "normal" we mean something other than most "Photo Sharing"
sites. These are intentionally designed to make it difficult
to get clean quality copies of multiple images. Flickr is a
pain to use for this, and the Yahoo Groups photos are no
longer available in full resolution.

If you want to ask what's easiest for us, 1 and 2 (e-mail or)
FTP are about as easy and are preferred over the others.

3 and 4 (CD/DVD, floppy, or prints) via postal mail are next
in terms of effort required to process. Prints always work,
and it's really no problem to scan them, since I have access
to a large scanner which will do several of them in each
scan.

Downloading from the web is not preferred, but will work
assuming the site does not use any strange methods to display
the full-resolution images. Most of the photo sharing sites
are intentionally landmined to prevent mass downloading
using scripts.

Any questions or concerns, please let us know.
