What Is Scrope?

Scrope is the name of my website. It was also the name of one of my cars. Before thatit was the name of my girlfriend's car. It all started in college when we wereplaying Kingmaker. One of the minor noble characters was Scrope which had a blue and gold coat of arms. My girlfriend thought her new car, which was blue, reminded her of Scrope so that's what she named it. Eventually she gave me the car. My next car was also a blue car so it became Scrope Mark II. When I needed a name for my website I remembered the name, which I thought sounded cool but didn't "mean" anything like Yahoo or Google, so that's what I picked.

You took a picture of me at a convention or an event. Can I use it?

Yes, with one small condition. You are free to use any of my photographs for personal and non-commerical use. Feel free to link to the photo or copy the photo onto your own site. However, all I ask is that you give me photographer credit.

If you are planning to use any of my photos in a commercial undertaking, drop me an e-mail and we'll talk.

If you want a higher resolution picture than those I post here, let me know. I've sized these pictures to be large enough to see on most monitors without scrolling but still small enough to they don't take forever to download. If you want to print out one of these photos (they make great gifts for boyfriends/girfriends) you might want better quality.

Are these all the pictures you took?

Nope. Uh-uh. Not even close. The problem is that I'm lazy. Well, not so much lazy as I have too many hobbies. I've been taking pictures for quite some time and have many galleries that I have yet to upload to the web. And before you ask the next question, it's because I have to examine each photo, correct the orientation, remove red-eye, adjust color and brightness, remove bad photos, build each gallery and then upload them to the web. Since I can easily take 1,200+ photos at a convention, you can imagine the time needed.

I'm revising how I post photo galleries which will make at least the gallery creation easier in that each gallery is generated automatically at runtime. Give me some time and eventually I'll get them all uploaded.
