Sparkles and Gem what cities did you guys do?

I'm slightly addicted to looking at all the photos on http://worldwidephotowalk.com/listin...l-photo-walks/

I did Boulder City, Nevada from 8am to 10am and then Laughlin, Nevada from 6pm to 8pm.

I really need to scrapbook my photos. I had a very bad experience at the first one and other than post the photos I wanted to enter I haven't really done anything with them.

I mean you guys know my personality...if I don't think something is right I say something. Well at the Boulder City walk the leader said we could only submit one photo and it had to be to his email by 7/20. I said the official website says you can submit two photo on the website up until midnight on 7/25. I was ignored.

Then when the leader refused to start a flickr group for photos from our walk so I made one.

I have since been told "If you are a registered participant of the Boulder City Photo Walk, you should be following the procedures as far as posting your photos, that of which you have not done yet. You should not be undermining what Scott Kelby has set up buy counter acting what he has created. This is what you have done, shame on you. I might also suggest that next time you run your own group, I don't think your personality would work well with most spiritually minded photographers. Your attempt to attack Garrett Winslow, President of a group of 300 well know photographer in Las Vegas, is what makes your acquaintance undesirable. You have no idea or knowledge of this group or the people in it. Your mistake in judgment is a disgrace to yourself and you as a member of a photographic community. Most Photographers that I know work together and prosper together, that is what LVPS is all about. You don’t belong here, I have a feeling you are from a slow region of Nevada that needs some spice. Practice in that town, and try to get involved where people do what you do best. Keep it out of Vegas. Allthough I find that I have lowered myself taking the time in responding to you this way, I do want you to know, that you are seriously not welcome without carefully thought out appologies for your misconceptions, and deceptive practices."

I don't think I'll be leaving the house to meet other photographers again. The ironic thing is even with the nasty things said I am really upset they won't give me a copy of the group photgraph of all 50 people, because I want to scrapbook the walk!
