Subject: Seeking volunteer for ICPS project 

Hey Folks,

I have hatched a new scheme for the ICPS, and I would like a volunteer who
could follow this up. My last scheme along these lines resulted in the CP
Web Ring---maybe this new one can be as successful.

I would like to have a photo gallery on the ICPS web site. This gallery
would show the work of CPers who love photographing their "pets" in
cultivation, in the field, etc. I imagine that every quarter, a new
"theme" would be announced, and photographs would be submitted for this.
As an example of what I am thinking, you could look at a photo gallery
that is run by a group of people dedicated to photography with Pentax
equipment. There is the gallery page, and the submission instructions
page:
http://pug.komkon.org/
http://pug.komkon.org/general/submit.html

In order to make this a reality, I would need someone who has the
following abilities/assets:

1)Knowledge of HTML, ability to write simple web pages. 2)Can
accept/send emails up to 200K in size. FTP a big bonus, too. 3)Good at
dealing with (occasionally) cranky people with grace (you'd be
  representing the ICPS).
4)Willing to work on a thankless task for no money. 5)Having a color
scanner would be a plus if some people wanted to submit
  hard copies.

Anyone interested? If not, I will probably take this on myself, but my
girlfriend will kill me for taking on another project!

Barry
