I'll put something on the blog now! I totally didn't recall this -
since I've been reporting the bugs on the IGDA site, it obviously
slipped my mind, so thank you for the reminder!<br>
<br>
Linky!

Hey guys,<br>
Sorry it’s taken so long to reply. <br>
<br>
Devin: Unfortunately, I think it’s too late to add any information on
Punchatz. <br>
<br>
Andrew: That’d be great if you could post something about it on the
blog! Also, we have some images, and hope to put a few up soon,
followed by a more comprehensive gallery of exhibit images so that
those who don’t travel through Austin will have a chance to see what it
looks like.<br>
<br>
I’ll definitely let the list know when those images will be available
online.<br>

style="font-size: 12px;">Cool stuff :) I'll write something for our
new site blog once I actually<br>
have my account sorted, admin access added and various other basic<br>
things so I can write up a monthly report and new posts ;)<br>
<br>
Make sure to grab some photos of the event if you can :) and we should<br>
start the record of exhibitions going:<br>

- yes, I should do a basic page at some point. Problem is I've only been<br>
to one in the last year so others will have to write things up and take<br>
photos :)<br>
