This is why I asked some time ago if it could be extended to three
months...

Well, Bill has done a good job over the years, (voluntarily), and like
all things computer-wise, it's probably boring in the end...
(The man hasn't had time for Poving himself).

Now that's a good idea - at least us Povers would get their images
included. If you haven't noticed this round, I didn't get my three images
included, and a few others didn't too because of some glitch. I really
wanted to vote and comment on this round, but now I can't do that.

I don't know. I haven't a clue. I guess there's some batch processing
going on somewhere, (the thumbnail images?), but if it came to scripts and
stuff, well, I could handle that as long as I was shown how to do it.
Let's just see what happens...
