No problem....

I worked through the night to get this page together on the new site. So at least now all the pics dating back to 2004 can be found in one area.

Thanks to Lucididee, she compiled them all and put them to music which no doubt can bring a tear to your eye.

Here is the new page:

http://sharkey-images.com/shore_dreams.html

Links to the organization's website are on there as well.

I will get an album together for you soon.

Here is a sample, this is only a sample so you can get a idea on how they will look. There will be a top page and a bottom page both will be 8 1/2x 11

John, Thanks for sharing the sample of the calendar! It looks awesome! I am very impressed!!! It is very professionally done, so well done I would like to order quite a few. I think that I will hand them out to my clients! What a great way to help out the kids.. after all its the very least that we can do to help families thru those difficult times! My heart goes out to those kids and their families! I bet if you took a sample down to the Miami boat show next month you would be able to drum up a lot of sales. I know quite a few groups of people who will be down there that I bet would love to order some quantities as well. What a win/win... money to help the kids and we get to look at awesome boating pictures all year around!!! Thanks John for putting this all together I am sure it is quite the job!! Come on OSO let's order these calendars up and show the Make a Wish Families how supportive our OSO Family can be! John, I will also be calling you about an ad for the calendar! Count me in!

Looks great John.

I have about 65 boat images loading now. All hi resolution so it will take a while. They are from various events with the NJPPC, NPBA, & the Lake George Poker Runs. Oh and a fly-by shot of the Skater called Jet Set.

The 1st two pics in the album are of record holder Darren Luhrs. He made his record on the same day as Shore Dreams For Kids and is an inspiration for all of them.

I just checked the status of the upload. 200mbs uploaded with another 59mbs to go.

I will start getting the kids pictures together on Friday nite.

Soon as the link is available I will PM it to you with the "Confidential" password.

I will generate a separate album with the same images for everyone else to view. The "Original File Download " feature will be turned off and that album will be accessible without a password and open to everyone.

Photos I have submitted so far for use in the Make -A- Wish Fundraiser Calendar can now be viewed here:

http://sharkeyimages.zenfolio.com/p678077389/

The SLIDESHOW tab is up on the top right.
It is a real nice interface for viewing.

Enjoy !

P.S.

Please note some of the photos where jackets may not have been worn may have been taken during a photo shoot which was done at a controlled cruise speed. Jackets were at the discretion of the boat operators.

Check with the guys from Sunsation. They do a rally every year that profits Make-a-Wish. They have some pictures with the kids on their boats during the rally.

If you want a callender or can sponsor a page or even part of a page please post here as well as contacting JB, he said he is getting a lot of PM's and calls but without people posting he is afraid the thread will loose momentum, so lets help John get this rolling

BTW this is an extremely nice gesture on John's part he is already extremely busy with the fundraising efforts and planning that goes into Boyne Thunder' charity run for the kids at Camp Quality. Thanks John for caring like you do.
