nah no install pics.. i barely even know how i did it lol!
i instant messenged u while i was there.. but seemed like u where away.. i hope at waterfest i can catch a connection.. it'd be sweet to show the judges the waterfest site while i'm waterfest.. or even better host some live photos of waterfest.. anyways i'll get some more pics hopefully soon.. i took these on my camera phone so they came out like shiat.. but i'll get some better ones.. i might be getting a new digital camera soon so hopefully b4 waterfest but i dunno..
