  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

A Call Out To All The REDHEADS

Just sent in my little bit. Thanks for starting this thread, Sam. It feels good knowing that we can support the LART session even if we can't be there in person to help. Can't wait to see how everything turns out!
 
Wow, I feel bad for dropping the ball on this initially. I meant to contribute earlier and then got caught up in my selfish world. :)

I think it's a great thing Sam has done and of course a great thing that the LART is doing. How could I not chip in?

One universal truth of filmmaking: "You can overwork us and underpay us, but don't underfeed us"

I hope that the LART eats well and futhermore it would be nice to see some of their costs covered as well. This is something that will, without doubt, bring huge benefits to this community.

I would hope that if people could put down a couple thousand on the camera that they would be willing to put in a bit for this great team.

Like a lot of people, I am a bit broke right now (damn real estate market), but I will dedicate to put in some more money if the numbes don't keep climbing.

Thanks to you all,

Jason
 
Totally support what you guys are doing.. so early on, helping so many future users. It's really appreciated. Really wish I could be there.

c'mon people.. this kind of early insight into what the cameras can do is going to cost you a lot more that $20 to do yourself.

Have fun!!... ;)

Hey, friends have you ever had the feeling "Everyone in the room Knows something you don't?".

I hate that feeling... & sadly I know it to well. LOL.

Gibby, tried to send me a few hints early in the thread, but I didn't catch on until I read his post today...

Gibby said:
And thanks again from the LART team for everyone's thoughtful consideration on this...and especially to Sam and Donatello for originally suggesting the concept of a fund drive for this...much appreciated by the LART team!

And with a quick search, I discovered the Talented, Hard Working, Truly Nice Guy, Red Fellow and Reduser, "Donatello" was thinking about a fund raiser a few days before I started this thread.

Hmmm, "Great Minds Think Alike". ( I kid )

The details of how I missed that are to boring to list here, but I want to say that it was an honest oversight on my part.

And I've already sent Don a PM with a apology.

But, I wanted to make a post here and say that Donatello is a Rock Star! And the fact he never mentioned anything about it to me, says it all!

Thanks Don for putting that good energy out there.

Now in the spirit of the thread...

I say "Onwards and Upwards!"
 
Glenn, Jamie, Jason & Flameop!

Right on!

Every little bit does help and I don't want anyone feeling bad.... I understand everyones busy, so thanks for taking the time.

Your support is much appreciated.

Steve, thanks for the follow through....

And like the "The Little Engine That Could".....

"I think we can, I think we can..."

There have been contributions made by some preferring to stay anonymous. So.....

Thanks To Everyone Who Has Chipped In.

For anyone who might be on the fence.....

How do we put a value on all the great info we'll be getting from the LART?

Two thousand Reds have been reserved.

A basic Red package is still going to be $20K

For perspective... 1/10 of 1% of Twenty Thousand Dollars = $20 bucks.

Hmmm, just 1/10th of 1%.

If it's really tough, make it $10 or $5...

"Do the right thing". It's better than a sleeping pill.
 
"And I've already sent Don a PM with a apology."

Sam, no apology needed ... i never thought of fundraising ... i was thinking about how to get a free lunch to the LART team but no how to do it ...you came up with the idea of a fundraiser !! = team effort = free lunch for our LART team !!!
we all tip our hats to you for this thread ...
 
For everyone who's still on the fence - remember, a happy crew is a thorough crew! :)

Maybe you could sponsor a sandwich, with your pet camera test attached as a garnish...
 
if we were smart, we would do like the nascar guys and sell ad space on the
LART cameras to cover the costs....then again if someone like Eynzite whats
to put a sticker on....

Unfortunately, adds are not a good idea for the LART. They, the LART will be free of any obligation to anyone or any product by doing it themselves.

That's why I started this thread...

So we as redusers could support them the "LART", that support us... "redusers".

I still think the idea of everyone pitching in is the right one...

And on that note, for people just coming on to thread, here's how you can make a donation (without having to search the thread).

Nice work REDUSER community - thanks,

Update #4

Update #4

Redusers,

$2300 is the goal per the caterer's quote attached in an earlier post for the 2 days of lunch, dinner and craft service for the 25 LART volunteers. Thanks to the generous contributors over the weekend here's the current update only $758 to go...Very cool!

Amount forwarded:

$1,191

New contribs (less paypal fees) as of Monday:

$50.00 USD -$1.75 USD
$50.00 USD -$2.25 USD
$10.00 USD -$0.69 USD
$50.00 USD -$2.25 USD
$50.00 USD -$1.75 USD
$50.00 USD -$1.75 USD
$10.00 USD -$0.59 USD
$35.00 USD -$1.32 USD
$50.00 USD -$1.75 USD

Total $1,542.15 (adjusted balance reflects Paypal fees) only $758 to go.

Again, a big thanks from the LART crew.

Very nice indeed, paypal's such a bloody rip off, you should've used GoogleCheckout - free till Jan '08 would've saved about $70 so far, nevermind though - It's all good :)
 
Or you could send some flowers through Fleurop. I´m sure the guys would enjoy that.

I´d much prefer to send a case of Bavaria´s finest brews, but that may be contraproductive.

So, ok, its boring Paypal (takes a few days).

All the best,
Jochen
