Thanks for WikiSalon pix

Thanks very much for uploading your pix from the WikiSalon! Funcrunch (talk) 06:15, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

I'll second that -- great to see some more good photos! I used a couple of your photos (and a couple of Funcrunch's) on the main event page. I took some liberties with this file: File:Pax & Kris.jpg It was showing up pretty low contrast, especially hard to see when in a smaller size (at least on my monitor). So I increased the brightness and contrast. Oddly enough, it seems to have become black & white when I uploaded it -- which was not my intention! I can try again, maybe using different software...but I thought I'd check with you first. (I also cropped the photo of Herb, but I uploaded that as a separate file so the full size version is still easy to find.) -Pete F (talk) 18:05, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
