We're holding a maximeet on February 16, and the primary feature of the day will be, by popular request, a photoshop tutorial, to be given by Matt K.

Please indicate your interest in this thread.

We'll have lighting and other stuff to play with as well, so in your EOI, please indicate also that you want to join in Matt's workshop.

Thank you to Manda and Sheepie for providing the venue, and to Matt K for his time and knowledge.

I would be interested in Matt's workshop and the other activities. I'd be coming from out of town, so if it was possible to make it a full day Saturday, half day Sunday that would be great for my flight bookings.

I'm a "possible" at the moment

Penciled in and looking forward to it.
I'll also attend the workshop.

def in

Wow, maximeet sounds big. Count me firmly in. If I can assist with anything please let me know.

Cheers
Steffen.

You may not be impressed at Patrick's attendance? I thought you guys got on alright after your last fight




Oh - and I guess as it's at our place, I'd better be there as well

Leon, David will not be impressed at my absence from the cricket field, realising the loss, albeit for one day, to the game of cricket my absence would realise. Mind you, I am sure we play in different comps.

Yes - It's a tradgedy - both of us being away makes it even worse!

I play in the NSW City and Suburban Comp - you?

NSCA - Northern Suburbs Cricket Assoc. Park cricket for old farts who think they need to spend 6 hours in the sun on a Sat afternoon to justify going for a beer afterwards.

Well that bit is the same!

I'm very interested in this, especially the workshop. Unfortunately it's on the day after my girlfriends birthday, so could have some issues. Any idea what time the workshop will be? I can probably swing a half day...

Please put me +1 down for the day (incl. the workshop).

I have some of Poons lights and a laptop if Matt needs it. Thanks for organising this.

Count me in for the meet.

Incidently, I noticed the renaming of these style of events, trademark infringement on "mini"?

We're actually able to do more at Sheepie's due to the way the place is designed. So ...

Count me in, please.

Look forward to Matt's workshop ... please include me on the list

Joe, the workshop is on Photoshop, not woodworking

We're actually doing a couple of special workshops for Joe.

- How to increase you forum post-count without really trying

- Your D300 - it can be used to take photos, too!

And I thought that we were going to make a nice set of tables and chairs....
I guess I need another excuse to get away from Chryssine

She's your wife! You don't need another excuse.

It's for making chairs

Count me in

Don't worry Joe, by the time February 16 comes along, Chryssine will have forgotten about the D300 and you will be on speaking terms again and you'll be able to bring her along.

I may even try and make it for Matt's workshop.

I would like to tentatively be counted in too, subject to excessive work at the moment which should be rectified by then

In need of Matt's workshop! Please include me on the list. No excuses when I'm just around the corner.

Cheers, Mick

Count me in, I pencil this down on the calendar

I'll be there. Thanks to Gary, Matt, Sheepie and Manda for putting this together. Let me know how I can help/contribute.

OK folks - time to take stock of where we're at - looks like we've got a huge amount of interest for this!

Let's hold fire for a little bit while I work out some logistics, and how many we've got interested. We'll then get back once we've worked out how many we can take

Count me in. I have preliminary approval from the Minister for War and Finance, though I will be a tad hung-over.

Hi all,

It's been a while... I'd love to come if it's not too late and there's enough room for me. It'd be great to catch up with everyone again and meet new people.

I'll keep an eye open on this thread and private messages.

Geoff

I'm definitely interested, though with my current Photoshop skills, I worry I may slow other people down. Promise to try and keep up, though...I'm always keen to learn.

Count me in,
sounds like a great opportunity to learn something & meet the faces behind some of the great pics I admire.

John

I would like to be there also if there is room Sheepie.
Saw the light on, don't eat much.........

Regards Colin

Would be my first DSLRUsers meet if there is space of cause

Gk

If there are any more spots id also like to attend looks like this will be a big one

If there is anything i can help with please let me know... only too happy to help out.

Put this photographer Extraordinaire ........bullsht down on the list please.

any updated info on this?

For those who are interested in the Photoshop course....I will be demonstrating a workflow using Photoshop CS3. I will also cover the use of each tool and show how that tool can be used to enhance or alter an image. The workshop is not for those who regularly use Photoshop, it is for those who have just obtained the program or who are thinking about buying it. It will give you an overview of the power of raster based digital imaging using ADOBEs flagship software. For those who already use Photoshop I am planning an advanced course for a later date.So hold off! The course will have value for those using Photoshop ver 7 or better.
I run best on caffeine and positive feedback. Given just a little of each it will be an excellent Maxi-meet!
