I need pics

Post by Anthony Flis » Wed Jan 21, 2004 3:32 am

Hey if you guys have any picks of you or friends riding anything at all send them to me to put them on my site cuz i already started an outlaw slide show with a pick from david riordon and one from anthony smallwood so send them in...also i found out when i was looking at the referrers to my website on the stats dily and my site is now listed on yahoo and google and if you type in dc outlaw slalom my site comes up as like 7th or something like that on the list, i just thought that was cool

Anthony Flis,

Thanks for posting up photos of the DC Outlaw Crew.



Everybody Else,

Grab a photo or two and send them to these guys. It is great to see today's youth getting interested in longboarding, slalom skateboarding, and downhill skateboarding.



Aaron,

Get some photos of yourself slaloming over to NoVa Bombers.

You already have all my pics. I don't like any of them so when I get a chance I'll get a disposable camera and go out with my friend. The wind will probably have to slow down a bit until I got out.

I got more pics from people before i posted this...so please i am begging you guys to send me pics or maybe a small video clip even...my site has lost so much traffic in the past week its crazy, the graphs that show me page views and visitors have just gone to hell and to the point where its like only me going to the site and the bar doesnt even show up....so if you can spread the word of my site and send in pics if no pics then spread the word of my site because it is pretty good if i might say so...heh

AnthonyF, I don’t really have any pics of myself that I like :D If I get some, I’ll forward them to you.

I do have some advice for the site: Some of the pics there are like 700-800k and therefore take a really long time to load for people that are on dial-up internet connections. I would suggest compressing the pics to a much smaller size (under 100k if possible). If you are on a Mac, there is a shareware app called Graphics Converter that can do this. If you are on Windows, search for some graphics implimentation shareware.

Yeah, I never really noticed much since I have cable and never thought of those poor people with dial up.

Spreading the word on THE NoVa BOMBERS

Post by David Riordon » Sun Feb 01, 2004 6:34 am

I'm spreading the word for you guys on other web sites (no names provided here because I can't get involved in skateboard politics if you know what I mean).

By the way here is an idea/request; push the "LBK Has a Posse" jpeg up on your page & stick small version of it in a corner and link it to some random cool web page like the DC Chapter of Surfrider Foundation http://www.surfrider.org/capitol/ or Snowrider Project http://www.surfrider.org/snowrider/. Just an idea that you can dump if you don't like it.

Laters,

The slide show is fixed. The pics are smaller and now don't take so long to load. And if you want just post a message on the corkboard. It doesn't have to do with anything. We just feel so lonely on it.
