This post is a shameless attempt to leverage the power of the numbers of Eve pilots to my advantage. Well, to my wife's advantage more specifically...
My lovely wife, who plays Eve and flies a Hurricane in deep 0.0, is also an aspiring photographer. She has just enrolled in a bachellors degree program in photography after years of being a very talented amature.
Because we're not rich people, she has entered into a photo contest with a scholoship prize to help pay the (big) school bills. The contest is partly based on internet votes. Out of more than 50,000 submitted pictures, hers is ranked #306. She's moved from rank #550 in the last 3 days! The top 150 will be judged for the final winner.
The more people who click the "Vote" link for her picture, the better her chances are.
There's no registration or anything and you can vote a few times a day.
If anyone is willing to spare a couple clicks for the benefit of a pod pilot's RL goals, please visit and vote:

I would like it if you voted, Whitehound, but I'm not gonna beg. My husband is trying to help me and did something nice for me by starting this thread. Your comments were in no way helpful, useful, or nice. "...put up a picture of your wife" - I mean c'mon! Like I'm not gonna see that... (though, admittedly, if i weren't fighting a hangover I'd probably thought it funnier) ah well... it is what it is. I appreciate the votes I have gotten so far. Thanks again everybody! o/

He should buy her some jewellery. Asking for votes in OOPE is cheap. Doing something nice is when you empty the trash. -- "Smoke me a kipper. I'll be back for breakfast." - Ace Rimmer |

I can see how you would think so, but my passion is not jewelry. my passion is photography. i want to do it professionally and have started taking steps to make that happen. he has already bought me a nice camera and that was better than just about any piece of shiny metal or rocks. (aside from the wedding bands, of course) i dont think its cheap for him to ask people to support me in my dreams, but go ahead, by all means, make me out to be the stupid girly who is dazzled by diamonds and wowwed by glittery gold. i have made no assumptions or generalizations about you or your character, only to say that i didnt think your comments were very nice or helpful - a point which i still maintain to be true. (i do thank you for your vote however grudgingly it came) and besides, he has already admitted that we are not rich. if i need help paying for school where is he gonna get the cash for these supposed jewels he should instead be buying me? thanks though, even bad publicity is good publicity :)

This has to be a major hang-over.
Anyway, what you are doing has nothing to do with photography. You do take pictures, but you do not get an evaluation of your skills when you ask a lot of people to vote for you based on the fact that they share a completely different passion - EVE - with you. Instead, you act like a politician who uses everything he can to get a majority. You are neither doing yourself or the art of photography a favour here.
And if you ever dreamed of getting a little bit of jewellery from your husband than I think did you just blow it. -- "Smoke me a kipper. I'll be back for breakfast." - Ace Rimmer |
