Looks like a nice montage, Ed!

A minor nitpick, but I'm not crazy about the font you used. It feels too "newspaper-y" to me. I recommend future vids to use a font that looks a little older, though obviously not something too hard to read (like the Old English font, which is pretty, but hard on the eyes).

Yeah, I thought of that. I was worried about how easily it could be read in a small youtube embed.

EDIT: The font actually looks quite large even in the embedded video, so I'm going to re-render it and re-upload it, and see how it turns out.

If anyone has any photos that would be good for this sort of thing that you'd like to pass my way, let me know. And also ideas for themes or general content. I'd love to have some attention grabbers like this on youtube, since I suspect there may be a lot of people out there who would have an interest in these things, but aren't aware of how to get started or who else they can share it with.

Here`s a little bit of fun, something that my partners cousin did for us at a pub near an event we attend. Be ready with the pause button for the written introductions.  ::)

Well, not so much "self" indulgence as "forum" indulgence. :) The photos I had at my disposal were mostly off my own camera, or were posted here in some cases. A few of those photos go back 10 years. :)

We could try and get a few additional ones this Sunday.  :)

Also I have a few of Sir John and Jeff from last weekend.

We can try to get some new pictures down at CRF, probably. Strange how the day went by so fast yesterday!
