    Day 6: Another Day, Another Rule And More Photos

    Posted: November 21st, 2009, 1:39pm CET by Alan McLeod

    I forgot a rule. What is the point of having rules if you forget them? It's not a bad rule. And it is sensible. Make sure your photos are not gia-nor-mous. See, I have a 2003 coal fired computer on the desk top. A Pentium 5 or something like that. If you send 5 pictures that are 2000 MB each, then it takes me 12 minutes per photo to resize. If 35 entrants do that each day, well, I have lost an evening. You see where I am going, right? So, keep them under around 350 KB they are much more manageable.

    More photos! Dave Selden of Portland, Oregon forwarded these five entries:

    And Max Bahnson of the Czech Republic send these ones:


    Excellent stuff. And Dave had contributed three prizes, too - three copies of his very handy beer tasting notebook called 33 Bottles of Beer. Thanks Dave.

    Day 5: Photos And A Big Prize Announcement

    Posted: November 21st, 2009, 12:39am CET by Alan McLeod

    Sipping a moderately good San Marino amber ale, I am all a giggle on a Friday evening. The first entries are coming in and we have a big prize announcement. Once lucky winner in the world will receive an autographed copy of Pete Brown's excellent 2009 release Hops and Glory. I have no idea if he will personalize the message for the deserving recipient. Maybe he will note the most recent Barnsley score. And here are the first ten photos.

    Aaron Chamberlain of Austin, Texas provides these five entries:

    And Patrick Hirlehey of Waterdown, Ontario sent in these five pictures:


    Good work and a great start. Send them in.
