    Yeah, I noticed the hosting change. Dunno if that did it, but that was the only thing I could come up with as well.

    Many thanks in advance.

    /had to reasort to the archives this week. 1) Black sand beach, Hawaii 2) East altar, Notre Dame, Paris, France 3) Plaza de Espa?a, Seville, spain

    2 of them were too big so I resized and hosted on my flickr.

    Thanks alot. And sorry about the sizing issue. I’ve been getting that alot recently as I keep forgetting to lower the .jpg quality setting in photoshop.

    wow. what the hell kind of machine?

    it is very similar to this one. http://www.davesweblife.com/images/stuff%20for%20friends/finger2.jpg see the red arrow. there was a two hole punch/die in the machine at the time. the good new is that the die length kept the machine open some. the bad news is i got two small holes to go with the broken bone.

    This is our home-built rig (the cats have apparently been on the table again…)

    I’ts pretty simple but it seems to work well.

    does that knock down or is it fixed/glued together? darned good idea with the diffusers.

    No problem. Wasn’t a big issue. I am only recently starting to make sure my shots are the correct size. Most weeks I would be scrambling to resize at the last minute when I couldn’t upload em

    What about the “Fork porn”?

    I thought that stuff was only available in Europe!

    That’s hardcore

    Ok, well yeah, fork porn too. My first bugporn was in July 2006 ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/lady_elsinore/182120013/in/set-72157594319276650/ ) and my first version of fork porn was in Oct 2006 for the Forks theme, followed by Barbie porn in Dec 2006 for the Barbie and Ken theme. It’s really Farktography’s fault, though, see? 😉

    /huzzah for external locus of control!

    I also suspect something to be up with the voting. Either my pictures suck this week, the votes aren’t counting right, or something else went wrong. I really thought I had better than a 2/1/1 vote set this week. I mean, I’ve submitted much worse looking pics that got at least 5 votes.

    Two quick comments on this week’s voting, both pure speculation based on very little data. Welcome to the Internet, eh? 🙂

    1. The number of votes seems pretty low overall. The leading entry only has 24 votes for instance. I think the fact that it’s the week before Christmas has many people’s work and personal schedules in disarray.

    2. Usually there’s a couple of “break away” images in terms of vote count which are the clear favorites and then a group of popular, but not leading entries clumped together with less votes. This week, at least so far, there’s no breakaway group.

    So maybe a running/cycling competition analogy will help? There’s no smaller group of leaders that have broken away from the main pack. That leads me to believe that this race isn’t normal in some way, probably because less people are voting.

    or to sum up, it’s not x, it’s Farktography.

    Instead of looking at how many votes I got, I just call my Mom or Aunt and tell them to shower me with praise.
