illustrious past it would be awesome IMHO to convert all the "OLD" contest images from before when PSC started hosting the images from their current offsite
hosting onto PSC servers....?
Good idea. Wayyyy back when I started saving some off for myself from the old contests (just the ones I really liked) - apologies to any "old" PSCers who feel that's violated their intellectual property rights or any of that guff, but frankly, without that a lot of these images would be lost anyway. (And it's not as though I've sold em or passed em off as my own! lol)
Only problem was, I stopped back in about contest 600-and-something which is a LONG way back itself, and the longer I wait to go back to it, the more daunting the task gets!
So I reckon making back-up copies of the best entries from past contests would be a great idea. The only problem would come if anyone wants to dispute over ownership of the images, but since most of PSC are reasonable people I don't think that would be a major issue.
