What format does a movie need to be in to upload ? I've tried .mov and .avi but neither seems to work...Any help gratefully appreciated !

My house is full of weird things...If an anthropologist were to visit she/he might make up all sorts of things about me from the evidence of my belongings... How quirky is yours ? want to post some images ?

 

Ma maison est pleines de choses étranges, et la votre ? vous voulez poster

there's a plastic gun in my ga…

An artists' society in Cornwall (;-)) (Only two members so far...)

The Rules :

The Cheap Lino club

1) From unpretentious beginnings art may arrive, or not...

2) It doesn’t matter

3) 85% pure lino
15% mixed media, or not...

4) Size :

Approx no more than

6 5/8” x 4 3/8”

If mounted then maximun size of mount is

8 11/16” x 11 13/16” (approx)

5) Entry fee of 68 p guarantees a prize which is to be held by an independent arbiter (Dot) in a very interesting tin. The arbiter to choose the winners and select the prizes. The arbiter shall not neccessarily find it useful to use a ruler whilst measuring approximate sizes unless she feels it to be an absolute requirement.


6) The cheap lino club is designed to help the artists to break out of apathetic inertia and resurrect the long-lost craft of lino printmaking. Whilst also providing hours of cheap entertainment, harmless fun and challenging exhortations in order to promote creativity.

7) The winner is to wear a T-shirt bearing the club rules even if only written in biro.

8) Anything goes !!! (Within 6 5/8” x 4 3/8”)

Nigel  posted the official club photos so I will now post them here for your delight...?!!! see below...

I have decided to use only black and white until September. My camera is set to bw, no conversion from colour. I'm already finding it a challenge, but I love bw so much it's time to give it a decent try. It's much more of a surprise when I see the image...

J'ai décidée de ne prendre que des photos en noir et blanc jusqu'ant Septembre.Mon appareil est set en nb, je ne veux pas convertir dans le mac. C'est déjà difficile, mais j'adore le noir et blanc et c'est le moment de vraiment essayer...Et l'image me surprend beaucoup plus...

Ok a little fun thing, limited to the first ten people who want to play (This time). Make 10 postcards how ever you like and send them, by snail mail to the other people in the group. They must all be the same and please share postal addresses privately through the messages. Post an image of the postcard in the group. Remember they can be as conventional or unconventional as you like, as long as they are postcards capable of being posted ! Postcards to be sent by the end of August !
