A few months back I did a web search on some technique... I think it was some sort of black and white tutorial and I stumbled upon the Texas Photo Forum. There was so much amazing work and helpful advice on there that I felt compelled to register and chat it up. Months later, I get the email about the california version.

I had taken a trip to Texas (Austin) for a training class for work. I was searching the web looking for photo opportunities in the area and stumbled onto the Texas Photo Forum web site. I joined up and got a ton of great information.
Then the other day I got an e-mail from Abel letting me know about this site, so I jumped on the opportunity to join a local forum.

Yeah, I know. My story was just about as thrilling as Snarfys story. Right?
And I have to work on an avatar. Just not sure where I want to go with it yet.

but there is such a thing a good spam right??? he he... i prefer the term "recruiter" ;)

I can say that I am a very selective "recruiter" and I make sure the people i send out the emails to are indeed from CA and are photographers..

Im sure we'll get a lot more people on board via my email announcements... :D
