Hey Miles,

I'm having a problem that maybe you can help me with! It seems that whenever I click on the items on the left of my screen such as Bulletin Board, Sell/Trade, Member Access, I'm able to read the posts,view the pics,look at what's for sale, but when I click on the Fun Stuff link and then click on the Factory Tour 2003 - Guest Access logo - Nothing happens!!! I'm unable to view the pics and such.
Is there a problem with my computer???
.............

Any and all help is appreciated!!
.............

Mike :D

Geez, when I click on that, beautiful pictures fill my screen, especially when I take 5 or 6 pain pills before hand.

Actually... I'm gonna pass the buck here a little, or at least share it... sorta.. Al has been very busy lately, and the next step in the process is his. He was feeling ill (he be ill'n) for a little while and now has to catch up, but they will be finished soon. I know people have been waiting, and would like to see all the pictures and people and could care less if they had captions and such. Unfortunatly, I don't work that way. They are done right, or not at all. I'm not fuss'n just splain'n. For those that want to see the stuff, and weren't at the tour......youshouldabeenthar!!!!

How about deleting this whole thread? It's starting too many "less than nice" comments from everybody.

Oh ... I thought the "pictures coming soon" was the lead in to Cliff posting a picture a week. I figured it was a long slow tease to get people excited for next year. I keep forgetting we are in the age of instant gratification. :D

In between Cliff's pictures I've been humoring myself by going to the press announcement on the Ovation site and doing my own little Sgt. Pepper's picture legend.

Mike, can you send me the vibrator plug-in? And can you program it to light up when I see an Adamas on eBay?

Just pick up your favorite Ovation, pick a good strumming song, and enjoy the vibrations as you strum along merrily as the guitar vibrates against your body. Maybe pick a good Beach Boys song, like "Good, Good, Good Vibrations.

Speaking of Ovation's "Sgt. Pepper" pic:

Al;
Can you forward me the email address of the lovely lady that snapped that pic? I'd like to get a good quality file and map it out with names, etc.

I would love to but I lost it all in my hard drive crash which now MILES is alledgedly trying to recover so why don't you contact MILES and ask him if my hard drive is recovered and if not to send it to MICHAEL who probably would have had it finished and recovered by now.

Two words fer ya' Al:

"Decaf"

. . . . . . and "BACKUP".


(If you listen REALLY carefully, you all could probably hear the "two words" that Al has for me) ;)

I'll repeart my earlier comment,

Can we just delete this whole thread? It's kinda pointless to point fingers, and while I too would like to see the pics and stuff from the tour, I know how tough it is to find to to put stuff like that together when the real world keeps knocking at your door.

Can we delete this thread before people get bent out of shape?

This could really put a damper on next years convention. I agree with the friendly PI from CA!

The solution is to attend next years convention and take your own pics and video. That's what I'm gonna do!

Well put P.I.,
As the recipient of the foder here... I have not been offended yet. I (and Al) do this as a hobby, a fun one. Most of the barbs are in fun, and just letting me know "hey... we wanna see stuff." which is fine. Those that are taking this more seriously, well I really don't have an answer for you.
Al and I are working on it at this time, we have about half the pictures captioned in less than two days, so if this keeps up, we should be done by the end of the week.
If there is a graphics person in the house, I need a few buttons that will work on a black background. They are: Arrival, Ovation, Hamer, Presentations, Jam Session, Video, and Misc. Also needed are two smaller buttons for "Previous" and "Next".
The buttons should be small using a 9pt-ish (maybe 10, there is plenty of room) font. Just make the navigation ones smaller than the rest and email them to me. Whoever wants to do this, it would save me a lot of time. If you want to give them rollover states, that's fine too.

Thanks
Miles

Love you all, and my patience is infinite. I dont need to see no steenkin pictures, I'll wait till they show up on Larry King, and are accompnied by softball questions as to why Ovation doesn't rule the roost. Al and Miles on Larry King will entertain us all!!!

Just remember that this site is just a hobby, not their primary source of work. Well, maybe more like an obsession. Can anyone who owns an Ovation ever say, "it's only a hobby" with a straight face? I sent over a hundred photos and some video myself, so I know this has been no small task for them.

Just an update. We're almost there. The no-rain days have distracted us with some other tasks that needed to get done, so early next week is most reasonable. The offer for those buttons I need is still open as that will be the last task I finish before it's done, but I have a few other things in the mean time. I know buttons are not a "big deal" but I'm not a graphics person, and I'm also partially colorblind, so it's not as easy for me as it is for most folks.

Miles;

I AM a "graphics person", but I don't do much along the lines of webpage design/architecture.

However, I DO know of a place:

www.flashbuttons.com

where you get/create FREE web buttons/toolbars that actually look pretty neat.

The only stipulation (that I've seen) is that their url shows up (discreetly) at the bottom of the toolbar.

Hope it helps.
