i prefer 800x600 and crunched the jpg compression quality as far as a i felt was ok. nothijng worse than lowres crap pics...

i might redo to 640/480. most of them are between 40-80 kbs but i might crush a bit further for kicks.

i prefer candid shots for my subject matter to capture the essence of true crapulence....

Mate, I had high hopes of capturing everyone's swings (on the first tee) on video with my new digital camera. (Sony DCS-W1). After pressing the wrong button a few times, I gave up and ended up only getting AndyP's long drive swing. It's in WMV format, and I have compressed it down to about 100kb. Any idea how to post it up on the forum?

I think you have to host it on another site, then provide a link to it.
It's only my fugly swing, so I wouldn't worry about it. :wink:

Phew. Opening that lot of photos on page one has convinced me I need broadband.

Looks like a great course.

Regarding the scores, why were the afternoon scores higher ? Was it a different course you played or was it just fatigue ?

That sounds like the green light for excuses. :roll:

Mike, the course was different.

It had a lot of short doglegs, where local knowledge would have been real handy for the distance to the turns.

Greens were a different grass, and were a lot nastier (tiers, bowls, etc) than the first 18.

I also believe they may have just had the club champs, because the pins were in some pretty horrid positions (and I saw a club champs scoreboard in the clubhouse).

Mental fatigue was definitely a factor. It was hard to stay motivated after having a shocker, and there would have been a bit of foot dragging going on.

I think a lot of people also thought they were out of the race early in the second 18. That wasn't actually the case though, because noone was travelling that well.
