If I had the skilz I'd do it because I think it's a nifty idea. I'd really like it because I could have easy access to the PESOs and GESOs and could filter out PDML emails with those in the subject lines to cut down mail volume (I subscribe to a text-based mail list more for text-based discussion than photo sharing). -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

I would be a lot more likely to follow up and comment, since following up a PESO link is rather inconvenient, particularly since I don't read my email on the web. But, even when I do, following peso links means opening up multiple web windows. I mostly just thought that it would be cool to have a gallery of the PESOs. Which I suppose is a bit more work than just a page of links, because you'd have to follow the link and find the url of the actual image. > > If you wish to organize, it is easy to create a filter (in Gmail) and > put all emails with PESO or GESO in the subject line in a different > folder that you could check on occasion, if you are just trying to > separate them out from your other Inbox emails. Yeah, I could write a procmail recipe to pull them out into a separate folder. > > On Tue, Jul 30, 2013 at 12:35 PM, Larry Colen wrote: > > There is something that I think would be really nifty, and would > > probably be about 20 lines of perl code, for someone who knows perl. > > > > Some sort of a bot that would monitor PDML for [PG]ESO posts, > > and update a webpage with links to the 20 or so most recent. > > Ideally with the title and author (from the Subject: and From: > > lines in the header). > > > > A bunch of awesome photos get posted to the list, and I think > > it would be really cool to be able to point my browser at a > > page and just see the recent ones on one page. > > > > > > -- > > Larry Colen l...@red4est.com http://red4est.com/lrc > > > > > > -- > > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > > PDML@pdml.net > > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and > > follow the directions. > > > > -- > "Photography is a Bastard left by Science on the Doorstep of Art" - > Peter Galassi > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > PDML@pdml.net > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com http://red4est.com/lrc -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: Anybody with mad web skilz?
Actually I think that somebody did that a while ago, but I don't remember who, though the web page produced had links to all PESO, PAW and GESOs posted. That was unfortunate as when those images were moved or removed from the web there were a lot of broken links.

Gawd you are SO lazy Larry. ;) Seriously, even if such a thing were fairly trivial, I think it goes against the spirit of the list, since it is unlikely that you would expend the energy to go back and find the original PESO thread in which to place any comments you might have.

Anybody with mad web skilz?
There is something that I think would be really nifty, and would probably be about 20 lines of perl code, for someone who knows perl. Some sort of a bot that would monitor PDML for [PG]ESO posts, and update a webpage with links to the 20 or so most recent. Ideally with the title and author (from the Subject: and From: lines in the header). A bunch of awesome photos get posted to the list, and I think it would be really cool to be able to point my browser at a page and just see the recent ones on one page. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com http://red4est.com/lrc -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
