Big ups to Dane Koba for putting together a 420 Day Celebration. Check out this neat-o pic i took of the party venue. Yeppers, a giant bud. niiiiice.
And while I'm on the subject of pictures I'd like to introduce you to my newest venture into the world wide web... Koinup!! I've been using Flickr for a long time now but a lot of people seem to enjoy Koinup so I thought I'd give it a go. I'm finally dipping my toes in the Koinup waters and so far I'm liking it. I'm all of 3 pictures in, but I don't wanna get overwhelmed.
I like to take snapshots in-world and send them via postcard to flickr. Turns out that can be done with Koinup (and linked from within Koinup to send to flickr too!) AND Talia Tokugawa wrote a quick and easy tutorial to auto-populate the koinup e-mail address so I don't have to type in the e-mail address each time.
I'm not sure yet the pros and cons of flickr v. koinup. If anyone out there would like to add their two cents I'd appreciate hearing from you. In the meantime I'll keep forging on and try my best to send in progress reports.

*grins* hey cheers for the mention :)
Personally I like koinup more. Besides the fact it's specifically for Secondlife and other games of the type, any suggestions and requests are dealt with quickly. The Admin aren't some unknown people and are very friendly.
For example.. I had an issue with a payment to flickr.. their form for updating credit card details didn't have a field for expiry date so I couldn't renew my credit card details to pay for a subscription renewel and spent a week or so trying to do so. Numerous emails to them practically begging to be able to pay them.
Same deal with Koinup... On a whim I ask Piers (Koinup Burt) if they could make storyboard embeddable. Within a day or two, Storyboards are embeddable.
Analogy I kinda like is that Flickr is the alpha dog in the pack. Big and old but not very mobile. Koinup is a young pup. Very agile ^.^
Oh another way that Koinup Pwns flickr.. http://www.koinup.com/support/faq/#UploadByEmail ... check that out.. you can send all sorts of info for Koinup and save yourself the hassle of logging in ;) I think that kinda makes up for Flickr having batch editing :)
Anyways once again.. cheers for the mention :)
