Looking for a auto-thumbnail generating photo album? Check out http://marginalhacks.com/Hacks/album/
It works great, is skinnable, and best of all - it's free.

BTW, do you guys like hot salsa? I Make a batch every year with home grown peppers, and would love to bring a quart or 2 for you guys if your up for it!

I can make 1 quart "Extra super duper oh my God I'm dying hot" salsa and a milder one if youd like to. Please say yes! I love making salsa, but I always overdue it and end up with like a gallon hehe.

Sweet! July is a good time to have it then, if I start planting the seeds now, they should be ready to go by then.

(Or, I may get lazy and just go to the farmer's market and pick up a bunch)


If I'm feeling particularly mean I'll pick up a bottle of "Smack My Ass & Call Me Sally - Chet's Gone Mad", at 1.5million on the scoville scale it's 700 times stronger then Tabasco. They use about 30 pounds of habanero's to produce about 2 ounces of it.

It comes in a child proof container with a dropper and a Material Data Safety Sheet. Check it out
yourselves.. But, at 38$, I don't know if I really want to punish you guys, as I can't even handle it, and I eat habenero's raw hehe

There is one on the website. You just need to download it and fill it out and bring it...granted, the one on the site is from Last year...waiting for the new one to be uploaded. :)

If you're still looking for a good program to generate Thumbs and more, check out Gallery Maker Pro (GMP) at downloads.com

That's the program I mention occasionally as good for many things, but not to register it! I registered one of the authors other programs and had to find his phone number on the net and call him in CA to get my key! He never responds to any emails about anything! ANd NO support! But the program is a good easy simple program that gets great results fast, and easy to learn fast too.

My old copy of it works for 30 days, fully working! I think it's still the same version to download.

You can generate the thumbs with it and use just those, or make a full website with it including text under the thumbs, multieple pages, open large pics in same window or new window, with or without a shell, and add text to the larger images too. You can even make up some banners and insert those on the pages (gallery, and large image shell) using headers or footers. And you can randomly insert them all at once. No ugly shareware logos or garbage, no limits except the 30 days and it locks.

Maybe install it now on one sytem and try it, then install on a different system for the party a few days early and make sure its working.

Maybe make up some funny banners to insert. You could make some up that say buy more tickets :)
Or maybe banners to say "Clean up your mess" or "keep your area clean" as reminders?

Anyway, Gallery Maker Pro is a great program for making fast easy websites, FREE for thirty days, then throw it away! So you should be able to make your thumbs with it, and you can vary the sizes of the thumbs too. You could probably make a whole website of the party fast with it too right after the party.
Very easy way to post the pics and add captions.

It sounds bad to say don't register it. So I would like to say that I DO register software if I like it, just not his!

Arrrggg.. If I wasn't over 900 miles away, I would probably come. In other words, if I was still living in the Twin Cities, I'd probably go. I need to find some LAN Parties around here.. :D

Have fun guys. It sounds like you'll all be having one hell of a blast!
