When I put a picture on Flickr, should I put a link here or something?

yup!

Hey Runi,

you can link the picture directly using HTML (so it displays on the forums) or just put the link to the flickr page - both are good!

oh yes, sorry for not replying to your email earlier in the week - we're all working flat out!

Cheers

Plain Sight...for kids!

My entry for the Plain Sight competition:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/32344312@N02/
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0ButyRdBhU

The video is a bit dodgy, but it was great so I might try to get the original copy and upload it again at another time.

Story:
Basically I wanted to get as many students to see it as possible, so I showed it off in one assembly, and then all the other years saw the poster when they had an assembly.
Help from two other guys (and two teachers).
Had a lot of fun organising it all and trying to think how I could relate it to school, in the end I didn't and I think the kids actually liked it more because of that.
Also handed out about 50 copies to random people in school so hopefully some more people found out about it.

Please get Plain Sight out faster, I actually can't wait much longer having got a taste of it at EuroGamer

Thanks

EDIT:
http://dark-matter-comics.com/index.htm (look down right hand side)

this is a plain sight comic drawn by a friend of mine. check out the rest of the website as his comics are brilliant, and leave comments and wotnot.

thanks again

small delay

we've had a few people asking us to delay the competition deadline for a week (so they can do what they need to do). As we want to see more awesome stuff, we've agreed. New deadline is next Friday (the 28th)
