This is a selection of
images collected at the CAPTION96 comics convention (in the
summer of 1996).
Attentive readers will have noticed that there is almost a
year-long gap between the con and the photo album. This is partly
explained by the amount a manual labour involved in scanning all
those 7×5 photos on my none-too-fast scanner and moving the
files from the Mac with the scanner to the Linux box with all my
web site stuff on.
Update:
With the creation of the CAPTION
web site, this album has moved home and in the process has been
redesigned with a less archaic look.
Update (23 April 2010):
I have created a new version of the CAPTION96 album on my
Ancient Photo Albums site.
I took almost 200 pictures of small-press-comics folk
at the convention
EuroCAPTION97. Here's
the finished album,
with many of the duff pictures discarded.

It is a tradition of Caption that the photos of the event take
months if not years to appear. This year is no exception—I am
still working on indexing the pictures nicely... but the first
cut of my Caption 2001
photo album is now on-line, and not before time. I’m even
trying to munge several of the photos together in to animations.
I have now converted the photo albums
(Aviemore, Roch
Castle, and Bologna) on my old site
(http://www.alleged.demon.co.uk/
)
to go on
the new site (http://www.alleged.org.uk/
). In the process I have ripped out the old
HTMLgen code that generated them and replaced it with the more
streamlined TclHTML equivalent (using the code I concocted
when building the photo albums on the
CAPTION site). As a result,
the last vestiges of the old Alleged look and feel
(with the tabbed-notebook style) is gone! I guess it must
be time for a redesign, then... :-)
