New leadership, new rules for UWOL...

Hmm...okay, I get what you have in mind. What I'm not understanding, yet, is how to make it happen. I'll study Josh's posts and do some research, then if things still don't click I'll get a sharper mind involved. Your wish is my wish, CH. :)

Holy Canoli! Josh's site is just the type I want to create, with extra pages etc. but I had no idea VimeoPro was the key.

Hi Lorinda, thanks for that - I will direct people to that link for the time being (looks cool). It will be interesting to see what you and Chris come up with for the final site; I'm sure it will be grand once all the inevitable teething problems of setting up the new format are sorted out. Thanks for all your hard work, it is much appreciated!

Wow, it was amazing to find I hadn't visited the site since August 2nd, and then to find so much has changed with UWOL. Mostly for the better, I think. I am really impressed with the UWOL portfolio on VimeoPro. I haven't had time to watch the entries yet (didn't have time to finish my own entry, either - I still need two more clips and some editing time) but I know I've got something good to look forward too - the visual quality is so much better than the UWOL archive now that compression isn't such a problem.

Congratulation to those who did get an entry in, and thanks Lorinda for emailing me about the extended deadline - unfortunately circumstances were against me this time.

If you've noticed that nothing has been done on the Vimeo page yet it's because there was more to it than meets the eye. As soon as Chris gets time to do some admin stuff I'll get busy trying to revamp the look. Thanks for your patience.

In the meantime, for those of you who have been wanting to shoot something again, get ready for the charity challenge! We're running it a lot earlier this year (Nov. 10 through Dec. 10). Stay tuned for details. I'll post the sign up in the charity challenge forum very soon and then run a notice here on UWOL.
