[singlepic id=3184 w=120 h=80 mode=web20 float=right] Finally. The main reason I have migrated the website over to the new design was for the sake of the gallery and now it’s here. I’ve worked through all the pictures that were on the old site and uploaded them into the new gallery. With a little work (well quite a lot actually) to sort everything out, it’s finally here and everything is now accessible through the gallery. This includes the section from 2011 so far that I have spent much of the past 24 hours uploading and sorting.

As an additional upgrade, from now on I am now going to be using bigger pictures. I’ll be uploading standard smaller versions to the facebook page as I work through, while keeping the higher resolution images for here. Hope you enjoy the site and watch out for the large Slamm Jamm photos coming soon.

Part two of Kyle’s series of mini edits. 40 seconds at Stoke Plaza this time.

Sometimes I like it when Kyle’s bored. He comes up with the best ideas. Awaiting the next installment…

It’s been a long time coming I know but things are finally moving forward. Having swapped over from e107 to WordPress for the website, I have also been migrating the gallery over. It’s taken far more effort and time than I had hoped, but here it is.

I’ve managed to upload everything up to the end of 2010 so far, and will work on the rest as soon as I get the opportunity. Then I can actually start on the backlog of images that I’ve been collecting since the summer…

OK, media is leaking out from the LocoSkate Beach Jam that was held last weekend down in Eastbourne. As part of the annual Eastbourne Extreme event we took overthe seafront skatepark from noon until 5. All was going well with the NewBlood (under 16) qualifiers and the open comps running all smoothly and to time. We managed to see 2 of the 3 qualifiers for the Pros before the threatened rain finally drown out the comp.

Considering the forcasts and the clouds we did very well to get this far. Nothing stopping the event though as there was a backup spot planned and, well, take a look for yourselves on the result in Jordan’s video above (from jordanmaders.co.uk) and in the pictures in the Gallery on here.

[singlepic id=3832 w=120 h=80 mode=web20 float=left]Final update to the 2011 NASS Gallery. Just a few shots from the Pro Inline session and a few extra treats from the end of the weekend. The question is, how would you handle being chased around a campsite by a naken man covered in his own faeces?

More updates to the Gallery. This time it’s the events of the final evening. It was Saturday night and things were getting rather nippley.

[singlepic id=386 w=120 h=80 mode=web20 float=right]After a few interruptions (see other news posts for details) I’ve managed finally to work through the photos from Saturday’s daytime activities. This includes the skating in the main park (Open and Ams) plus the events at the campsite throughout the afternoon (beer pong, nerf and chilling in the sun). Still loads to go through fron the evening and the remaining skating on the Sunday, but I’ll keep working on it.

Now, get over to the Gallery and check them out…

Just throwing a few things in the car and heading down to the LocoSkate Beach Jam. The weather doesn’t look the best but we’ll make it a party anyway. We’ll be there until Sunday at least so everyone get on down and join us for a little fun whether rolling or otherwise. Just check the attendees list on the Facebook event to see who’s down and the trouble you’ll miss if you don’t join us.

The reason I take these photos is for everyone to see them and use them. I love to see my photos being used around facebook but I would ask for 2 things

1) Use the “like” button. Spread the word. It’s over in the column to the left. This helps to get the site known and bring in more people. It also means you get updates whenever something is posted in the news.

2) If possible, use the images as they are without editing them. Mainly because having the sitename on is really a good way for me to get the site known, but also because I put a lot of time into the composition and look of each image.

Well, cheers and keep flooding facebook with photos and get tagging people on them…
