Re: [Wlug] REMINDER: Meeting Thursday 7:00 PM

by Dick Goodman

Andy, I had talked about possibly hosting the picnic --- perhaps next year. My son is getting married on July 26th, and we'll already have out of town guests in by the 23rd Was looking forward to the meeting, except it conflicts with dancing lessons (so I don't look like a fool at the wedding) Dick >-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >Hash: SHA1 > >Hi everybody, > > >In addition, we need to finalize our plans for the annual WLUG BBQ which >is currently scheduled for Thursday, July 23rd.

Re: Where to hold meetings..

by Kevin Harrington

I would like to also suggest Technocopia! http://technocopia.org/ We would love to have the WLUG, and the only reason i haven't attended in a while is because Thursday at 7 is our open house night. I would take responsibility for "booking" the space, as a member I am allowed to host club event's in the space with non-menbers so long as I am there to let everyone in and close up on the way out. I still may not be able to attend every meeting, as I give tours of Technocopia, I do look forward to finally being able to at least pop in and out between tours!

Re: Next WLUG meeting proposal

by THE HAMMER

Hey John, It's tough to go by me as I have not attended in too long a while. I can say for me personally May 8th is booked. The 15th looks ok. If I'm not able to attend either will do my best to view on line Ron ________________________________ From: John Stoffel via WLUG <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> Sent: Thursday, May 2, 2024 3:51 PM To: Worcester Linux Users' Group General Discussion <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> Cc: John Stoffel <john(a)stoffel.org> Subject: [WLUG] Next WLUG meeting proposal Guys, Tim & I both have conflicts on alot of Thursdays in May for the regular WLUG meeting. We'd like to see how people feel about moving it to either May 8th or May 15th instead this month. We're still checking with Technocopia to make sure we will have access on either of those days, but we wanted to reach out and make sure the rest of you are ok with this change.

REMINDER: Meeting Thurs, Aug 21st, 7:00 PM

by Andy Stewart

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Everybody, At this WLUG meeting, our guest speaker will be Liz Johnson, friend of long time WLUG member Greg Avedissian. The topic for this meeting will be an introduction to GIMP, the GNU Image Manipulation Program. Here are some words about the talk from Liz: ===== A paint and image editing program, GIMP is Linux's software alternative to Adobe Photoshop. Learn basic methods of working on images such as jpeg, bitmap, tiff. GIMP can import PDF documents and the Raw image formats used by many digital cameras. Restore old photos, color-corrrect, resize, crop, correct exposure, redeye, flash. Use special effects such as emboss, sharpen, smooth. color enhance, transparency, sparkle, or softglow. Create your own desktop images, icons, and logos. GIMP can help you lose 15 pounds overnight, or make you look like everyone's favorite movie star. It's open source, 100% natural, non-toxic, and free. ===== The website will be updated shortly. See ya there!
