 Topic: World Wet Plate Day 2013Posted: 30 April 2013 at 13:12 |
|
Yeah, I was just going to start making announcements, but have been holding off wondering were the best posting spot would be. But yes, World Wetplate Day is about everyone world wide shooting that day. It was started by Quinn, and several of us old timers to honor Archer, the inventor. Back then, there were only 51 people that shot the first year.
Wetplate has grown so much since 2009 that "getting awareness" is no longer a big goal. But comradeship is!

Hi, I wasn't being critical. Just that I kept getting referred to that site and there was not even an announcement of Wet Plate Day 2013. I would never criticize the volunteer efforts that go into something like that. If someone capable is generous and updates the site this year, great. If not we will post here as was suggested. No worries either way. Good luck to all that are shooting that day!

"Look at that site, it looks totally stagnant since last year."
I don't understand, why do you see that as a bad thing? People get together once a year to make plates and show off what they made. Seems perfectly reasonable use of the site to me. I would help and thought about offering, but I'm still very new to wordpress and fear I'd mess things up. So if someone is up for some hand holding ... ? |

Gert-Jan was gracious enough to build the site and upload the images. Shortly after last year he asked if someone else would take over. I suppose he didn't get any takers.
At any rate we can still participate and post in a thread here on the forum (or on the new forum). |

Look at that site, it looks totally stagnant since last year. I have a big wet plate party going on that day. It would have been nice to share the enthusiasm.

My understanding is wet plate day has always been the official site, though Garette's comment is confusing to me ... I need to lurk more!

Is there any official Wet Plate Day site? Seems 2012 is all I find?

Gert-Jan, did you ever get someone to turn over the website too?
