Well, today's the day...Feb. 24th for my turn at POTD for the board and the blog!!!!! I'm so psyched! :)

If anyone in the city is going to be there today, could you please take a picture of the board for me??? My first "major award", lol! :P

It's up on the website already. Kat's POTD

Anyone know what key strokes to use to capture a screen shot on a Mac??

YOu mean the Kodak picture of the day on the board in Times Square? Not to burst your bubble, but I remember the last time I went to look for someone's entry, the big billboard wasn't working anymore. But maybe that was just temporary.

Kat, to get a screen grab on a mac, there are a number of different ways to do it, you can a) use the grab utility or b) use command, shift and the 4 key (not on the number pad, but on the keyboard) and then drag the cursor over the part you want to highlight. It will then create a PNG file saved directly to the desktop. Very quick and easy actually.

Oh and congrats on the POTD by the way.

I hope it does work, but please don't make this a special trip. That wasn't the intent at all, but it would be very cool! :) I'm just really, really tickled with all of this. I know tons of people here have had that honor, but still. It's little ol' me!

Yay! Congrats! And it may be just lil ol' you, but it's a huge deal!

Cool! Will it be on display in Times Square? Maybe you can get one of our members in NYC to get a shot of it on the big screen for you.

Supposed to be on display in Times Square and also on the 1000 word photo blog. At the moment, the LIVE feed is down, so I can't even see my shot! Grrr. Hoping it's back up sometime today. It worked for awhile yesterday as I went out to check, then went down late in the afternoon. ;( That's typical of my luck! Oh well...if anyone can see it...tell me how it looks. :)
