Agreed. And another guest gallary too....with a possible new collaboration to boot. It seems as though that is the only time I shoot something new. C'mon. Say, would be groovy had the FW members were to log in and add to the Grabs section as well. I am officially pushing my weight around. My gallary is so old that I can't stand looking at it...haha. Hmm, wish we had that option to update that material with new.

Well... as far as Grabs go, I have some shit but need to find the time to remember how to create the appropriate galleries with the engine thingy... One of the other fw used to do this for us, but I suspect he does not love us anymore.

I will see what I can do. Another Collab was in the works, someone had an idea about the postcards, but again some I suspect are too busy with life.

As for users adding to Grabs, we only have limited space, yada, yada, yada, and all that. We have however had an idea about other galleries, but did I mention a lack of time?

My fw efforts this last week or so have been on this: http://filmwasters.com/forum/index.php?topic=2201.0 . So please forgive me. Skj.

Grabs.....well, its just a snapshot of what each of the FW has been up to, photographically speaking,  each month. So could be anything - no theme, no trends,  just something to keep kicking us up the behind.  I used to find it very useful for that.  I need to start thinking that way again.

I hold my hand up here - I used to create the galleries each month then let everyone know it was ready to go,  I have been very slack of late...very slack. ..and maybe not even of late, maybe longer......i just wish i had a proper excuse.

Rest assured brother Skorj,  i still still have the same mixture of love and lust for all the filmwasters.

Never a doubt!

As for the root of the term, 'grabs', are like 'rushes'. At the end of the day, a quick review of the work...
