1) I just got email asking if I'd want to lecture or lead projects in CS for Governor's School this summer. Whoa. I wonder if I should think about that. The problem of course would be that then I'd definitely be in town all summer.

2) I'm trying to make a new LJ picture out of those kitten shots. I wish I knew how to get more LJ pictures allowed than just ten (yes I have a paid account):


I wonder if any of these would work well as an LJ pic:

Nice pictures.

Of these three, I think the middle's best. I like the closer crop in the last, but the 3/4 of a cat head is disturbing, and it looks more like you're hiding behind the cat than holding it. You could probably get a similar close effect by chopping 5-10 pixels from the left side of the middle picture (making it more rectangular).

A bit of either artificial brightening (easy) or reducing the brightness and contrast of the background a bit (harder) might be good, too.

If you're not sure which pictures to keep or drop to stay at <= 10, you could always ask Eli (or someone else whose opinion you trust) which to drop.
