Hi all!

All is well - and got a new camera to boot

... it's not the DSLR I want to work my way up to--- but it's certainly better than the 2.1 I was trotting around with.... (I'm so psyched!!!)

Hope you all had a great holiday!

BTW - see lots of new faces here - welcome everyone - sorry I missed ya.

I'm a graphic designer, working on my own since 1994.
besides gd I do retouch and some photography, this
year I'll try to get more into photography (I'm in
the process of building a website for it) 8)

I'm an economist. I take pictures of stuff in my spare time (which I don't have nearly enough of

)

RadialPrincess · Jan 4, 2005

I am in advertising. I do some website design and sports journalism on the side, and the photography interest besides being an intriguing hobby has helped that.

You work IN a tv? Do you mean you were on television? Could you explain this a little more? (damn the language barrier!)

No Corry. You she, she is very small. Each night she was cloned and ran around to people houses as fast as her little legs could carry her. Then she'd jump inside the box and wait for you to turn her on (...I'll leave that there...). Most people who work in TV don't last long. All that running about and cloning wears their little stumps down and eventually they become so short you hardly notice they're there.
That's when they become Borrowers.

I was just thinkin the same thing!

Ferny...this place would be a lot more boring without you here!

ferny · Jan 4, 2005

You wouldn't like it. The weevils and badgers make you do horrible things.

mad_malteaser · Jan 4, 2005

I bet that's the least of your worries.

mentos_007 · Jan 4, 2005

ok ok .. enough

I'll explain it to ya

first of all: my dad is a programme director and that's why I appeared in tv building very often. Once a woman saw me (actually when I was 10) and she offered me to ... be a star (kidding). There was a programme for youngsters, something like "What's on this week". Me and my friend were talking about happenings that would take place in that week. So for example, we were talking about Woodstock Stop that is yearly organised in Poland. It was during holidays.
Then I "was a star" of a programme for kids. But there were a group of kids and one adult and we were all having a chat with a guest that we invited before... a talk show, something like that.
hmm then I was my dad's assistant, and then the camera man's assistant. And finally I ... picked up the phone during the special events where for example, an auction was discussed and I was to shout update prices suggested by tv viewers and soooo on...
but Ferny was close
