October Meeting

I'm sorry, this month has been really crazy for me, so I have not had a chance to keep you posted on the haps with our October meeting. I know that a few of you will not be able to make it, so I am proprosing an informal meeting on Sunday October 2nd, 2005 at 6pm, for anyone who feels like stopping by. I'll be here drinking some coffee or tequila(!) and hanging out, so let me know if you'll be coming on Sunday. Sorry about that!

I'd be happy posting any work you've been doing this past month on the site for everyone to view. If you have something you'd like uploaded to the site, please send me a digital file at max width 400 pixels @ 72 dpi and saved for the web.

And please please please email me any theme suggestions for November's meeting which will be on Sunday November 6th, 2005. Keep in touch until then!

November theme suggestions thus far (HELP! NEED MORE!):
- River Bottom Nightmare
- Stuck in the Middle

SCREAMO EMO: September CFTW

Woohoo! The second meeting has been had - with some great images to show for it...
Thank you Jody, Jason, Sean, and Matt for showing your images at the meeting! Great to have you guys...
Here are the images we looked at during the meeting (plus some additional ones), and we'll also have 'guest' appearances from some other artists that couldn't quite make it that day...
And, Sean's introspective, improv Screamo Emo song will be posted to the blog, once I figure out how!
