[AGA-Contest] update [51], photo releases, etc

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Like last year, I'm going to start listing the current "possible entries 
with photos" in the subject from here to the end.  Looks very good today, 
as I just finished typing in the entries for the two folks who've entered 
through the mail so far this year... again, remember that in 2003 & 
earlier, we only had 60-70 entries total.  Last year we had about 120.

One curious phenomenon.  As folks are starting to send their photo release 
forms, several have decided that scanning in a generic signature and 
"pasting" it into a word or jpeg file of the release form is OK.

Sigh.  I am not sure why anyone thinks this counts as signing a document.

I have attempted to make things easier by adding a special photo release 
only page, and linking to it in 15 places throughout the website.  Maybe 
people don't have access to a scanner & don't understand that they can 
take a digital picture of it in lieu of scanning or faxing (but how'd they 
scan their signature?).  Maybe one of the folks will send me an angry 
letter that they "don't do printers".  Stay tuned.
