I've got a digital camera that I bring to events and (most weeks) to 
Populace in the Park so I can grab pics for the "It Cometh". It's not 
a professional model, but it takes pretty good snapshots. And it's got 
an LCD screen, so you can evaluate each shot as you take it and re-take 
it if necessary. I'm happy to photograph (or allow someone with more 
skill to use my camera to photograph) anyone who'd like to be included 
in the on- or off-line "Who's Who". I'm using a removable memory card 
that will hold about 1100 photos.

Personally, I'd rather be wearing clothing characteristic of my home 
culture and century (you're welcome, Eule) when any photo for S.C.A. 
use is taken. If that's a general sentiment--or reflects a preference 
on the part of the individual(s) compiling the info--we'll need to plan 
ahead for "photo sessions". We could start next Tuesday (at least with 
officers, for the website), since everybody will be dressed for the 
tiny tourney, anyway.
