single low-res pic of winners would not take up much room at all. 150 venues * 200KB photo = 3 meg a week. thats not much at all

So anyways, are you going to come down and play on Tuesday's or what?

There are some awesome venues going around on a Tuesday, but give McQueens a go for something different, you will be as pleasantly surprised as I was!! 8-)

fair enough, photos would turn into the thousands very quickly if everyone was given a camera.

maybe venue leaders or a group photo of the top 5 after each season? lol a NPL "yearbook" for each season could me made up with a TD or regular player providing a rundown on the movers and shakers in that region/venue?

Although I dont want to stray from the topic but

150 * 200kb = 30 Mb

as well as other images added these photos would add roughly 2-3GB a year, which would increase the bandwith substantialy also.

Come down to McQueens guys!

well it turns out that i cant multiply any more! well turns out that 5 years of uni for an engineering degree was a waste of time LOL.

you could get decent looking small photos for much less than 200K as well - probably more like 50kb.

also, what bandwidth are you talking about? just outgoing data from the server? i suppose all of these things would need to be taken into account.

McQueens is the place its at apparently, just to get it back on topic!

how much space- no of photo can be put to public viewed site such as available ie at photobucket. com or perhaps pisca/ googles site?

I have projected to obtain the top three players from each of the Barossa/Gawler venues and post maybe a visual leaderboard for entertainment and reference.

I like the idea of a reporter summarizing the weeks /months venues currently the thread for Studio 89 and Swish and to a lesser degree grant peppers - blue gums reports make for interesting reading when posted to.

How about a thread where each venue is given a topic/page
and all interested parties can post there ie Shannon does this already summarizing Williaston/ old spot venues --- matty norwood at the Kingsford.-- McQeens could be developed / -food/ stamps details /a photo of venue . There hav been several piecemeal posts scattered on the forum already.

KEEP THE PHOTO GALLERY IDEAS COMING GUYS.

What was once one mans idea has now been put to task by a number of people and that gives up a major melting pot of ideas.

I'm sure you guys will come up with a solution and who know, it might even get off the ground.

Tims taken some more pice of tonites tourney and also the winner. I think we had 91 runners tonite.

Sou only went ALLIN 7 times tonite. Six of them were b4 the first break, and got busted on the 7th one, LOL.
Remember, It takes 8 muscles to smile :D and 40 to frown :(
