All of the ACCs photos are posted and some track level shots from the playoff game. That will probably wrap things up for the season. I have some videos courtesy of the Bowlings that I will at least get transferred onto DVD and posted sometime next week.

Congratulations to the marching band on an excellent season. This was our 3rd high brass award, and I understand that we were a very close second in several captions including guard. I didn’t see the recap sheets, but they should be posted on www.tob-info.net or at least should be soon.
Photo work is in progress, I’m up to the show photos from ACCs and they are half done right now. I got a late start tonight due to an unexpected 12 hour day. I’m uploading what’s finished so I can add stuff to the site tomorrow. If things cooperate tomorrow I will be able to finish the show photos and get them uploaded and possibly posted.
I’m working with three different sources to get some additional photos and videos, and I will edit and post them as I get them. I should be ordering the ACCs DVDs this week, it usually takes a few weeks for me to get them, so be patient. I don’t order the instant ones at the show because I’ve had several come back with poor audio or video quality and I would rather have awards on there. That reminds me, I need to see about official videos from Ephrata and Chapters.
Finally, I saw many individuals and parents with cameras and camcorders at the shows and in the stands at the football games throughout the season. However, I haven’t had anyone want to give me anything to post on the site. The same goes for the musical, it’s pretty obvious when I am standing in the back of the house or the top of the stands. I encourage everyone to hunt through their collections and get in contact with me. If that doesn’t work, I might be nice enough to resort to bribery for a few months. One possibility is send me some photos, get entered into a drawing for one of a couple Best Buy gift cards, Visa/MC/Amex gift cards, ITunes gift cards, something like that. That’s money I really need to spend on getting bills paid and improving the sites, sponsoring other ST stuff, but we’ll see how good I’m feeling in a few weeks.

The Pocono show photos have been posted. Sorry for the delay, too many pics with a lot of retouching combined with overtime and crappy Comcast don’t go together well.
Because of the rain Friday I don’t have photos from senior recognition. Anyone who wants individual, section or class photos can get them after chapters if time allows. If you want something informal, just see me during one of the breaks on Saturday. Let’s make it #10 this weekend!

Photos from the Mechanicsburg game and Red Land show have been posted. I’m not coming up for homecoming this week, I need to save the $50-60 in gas and food money for another time. I’ll be up very early next Friday for a school business partner meeting and will be there for the game and Ephrata show.

I’ve been waiting for some results on this until I was finally told I could use Microsoft Visual Web Developer to fix the problem with all of the gallery data files. Sure enough in a short period of time, all the edits have been completed. I tested a few albums on my sites at random and things appear to be ok, but later tonight I will start the process of looking through every album on every site of mine just to make sure I didn’t mess anything up. I doubt I overwrote any click counts (though that would be interesting). There is a distinct possibility I blew away or corrupted some of the EXIF data stored in the data files, but I don’t really care since that I have EXIF display turned off. That’s all embedded in the actual files and I would only use that to prove my original work since EXIF data is all the information about the camera, the settings, date and time when the photo was taken.
If you have questions, comments or run into any problems before I get to check everything, let me know.

Photos from the Gettysburg game and Mechanicsburg show have been posted. I will have some further updates to my personal site from trips I made over the summer and 2 weeks ago, but I don’t have time to fix Gallery right now. I’ll spend more time on this after work.

In case you didn’t go looking, ST’s photos from the indoor guard chapter championships were posted some time ago. I did add 3 photos tonight from awards. Ron reminded me about Ephrata and I posted photos of their performance at Chapters on my personal site, you can view that gallery here: http://www.nrs2.org/gallery/view_album.php?set_albumName=album225.
Good luck to the class of 2006, if anyone is headed for PSU Berks, U of MD, UDel let me kno
