The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

This year, I'd like to try to get a group photo of everyone on the gothic cruise.

Perhaps meet somewhere onboard the ship to have the photo(s) taken. I will be hijacking a member of the crew to take the pictures for us. So If you have a camera, you can bring it.

Once Onboard, I am going to ask the ships photographer if he will take it for us, and make it available for purchase right onboard the ship.


Any comments?

Probably a given... but make sure the Bands are in the pic:)

That sounds like a great idea!!!

Wonderful Idea!!!

that would be totally rad if the bands were in it too.. i'd totally get a picture of all of the awesome gothers along with combichrist :D

Fantastic idea!!

Thoughts on setting??? ...... inside (like on a staircase or a stage) or outside (with ocean and fabulous sky!!!)

Brilliant idea!!!

If we are not able to set it up outside on the boat, we could maybe arrange to do it in the Amber palace before one of the concerts.

Just a thought.

Just for total contrast we should all be 'decked out' on a beach with our eyeliner running and hair falling. Gothic Cruise to the Bahamas 2008 I can see it now

Ha ya don't need it... you'll be so hung over you'll have black rings around your eyes and generally look like crap

Sounds sweet to me! We should take the picture right when we get on with the bands too so we can have the pic to sign for the autogragh session....that would be awesome!

I normally don't get autographs but in that case it would be the perfect memento

I think a group photo would be great.
MAybe even put it right on our agenda.

I'm absolutely up for doing a group photo. Dunno about going a group one when we get on though.. cuz I am dressing light. Tennis shoes, shorts, and a t-shirt. Maybe I'll wear a hat so I can staple "Special Needs" to it again. Mwahahahaha

where do i sign up?

sounds a good idea to me : )

If you don't mind me asking Z,
what is our head count for the 08 cruise?

It'll be tough to get it in a way that we don't all look like ants in the picture, won't it?

I love the idea

head count is almost 200.

Can do picture without everyone looking like ants.

Sweet! 200 more Feinds to meet =-=

Huh... are we going to try to do it on the Formal Night, so that everyone is all dressed up and spiff-i-fied? Or right before the Masq. Ball?? Just some thoughts. What do ya'll think about it????

O.o

o.O

Huh huh huh??

But vampires don't show in photographs.

they do when they are covered in blood, fleshy bits, and liquor.

Z

OMG!!!!

that is the BEST answer ever.... *picks self up off the floor*

Woot..... Z is the master comeback ninja (read a tidbit about your ninja skills!!)

I'm telling.. Zaida like Kung Fu Kablooey, Wang Chung, and Bruce Lee rolled into one!!! Just you wait and see...

Before the Ball would be sweet too

I might even recind my "no photographs" policy for that one!

oh a yeah a group photo would be sweet...
and some of the previous suggestions are great, like adding it to the itineraray so we all know where/when. and before the formal dinner or masquerade would be keen (and if the bands can make it all the more betterer)

We should try to take several, before various events!

did i read "no photos"
Laughs hysterically.....I will be the ninja photographer and take lots of pics of you "no photo ppl"
YES, I mean you zaida :)

How about making the picture into a poster where you can have 200 people without them looking too small? You could charge for it, with the proceeds going to cover the costs and anything over that donate to charity?

I like that idea, even a small poster would be good

Will you be posting a new event schedule that reflects this? Otherwise, I'll forget...

Im going to repost it, and I will also make an announcement during the autograph session and the late night party.

Z

i have no idea what times they serve dinner on these things, but i assume this photo is either right before or after the formal dinner? which?

dinner for our group in the main dining room is at 8:15pm.

So the photo will be before.

Z

Agreed! The Grand Lobby Staircase is the best place to cram 200 freaks into a photo . . . . With Kale playing the lounge piano nearby.

photo and then dinner... good. before i've had a chance to spill whatever sauce all over me. get crumbs in my hair. all that junk. coz that's what i do. turn into a giant typhoon of mess when i eat.

As a possabile second group photo, how about from or on the stage after one of the three concerts?

You cant go up on the stage after the concerts. The bands have a time crunch to get their stuff off the stage for Carnival's next shows.

Z

BOO!

my friend says it sounds good too ^_^

dammit! i forgot to pick up a copy of the group shot on the ship :(

I have one im trying to scan and upload.. but my scanner is almost shot. still working on it.

Z

So this one time at Goth Camp when we went to buy the group photo and it was $20 which is a lot for a picture so if anyone has one, we will pay for a copy as long as it is fair not $20 LOL

Hey.. that group photo should have been only $15 for one thing.


I do have a photo, and I am trying as hard as I can to get my stupid scanner (all in one) to work! my goal, is to get this up today!

Zaida

We bought both versions of the group pict (we're suckers!), so I'll put scanned copies up this weekend with the rest of my pics on Flickr

I've got my copy scanned and up on my Myspace:

(add me if you haven't already!)

My copy is the silly version.

~Barbie~

my scanner is dead. I was trying to scan it at 300 dpi so everyone could print if they wanted, and have it framed.. but damn if it aint all screwed. People are coming out with double heads, two sets of eyes.. and extra arms.

Z

Thank you lisa for sending me that scan.

Here is a link to the scan.. it is 300 dpi so it will print nicely!

Anyone have a 300 dpi or higher scanned copy of the other two group pictures?
