TrekBBS Holiday Audio Greeting - Submissions

[Capn Flukie]

Ok, after a bit of encouragement, I've decided to put together a Holiday Audio Greeting for the TrekBBS for this holiday season.

Here's the one from 2005 to get an idea of what I'm talking about; 2005 TrekBBS Xmas Wish

If you would like to participate, send your audio greeting to me BY PM, I'd like to keep a bit of surprise in the finished product. This includes all the holidays of the season Christmas, Hanukkah, Ramadan, New Years, etc.

If you don't have sound recording software I suggest WavePad, others may suggest other software. Mp3 or Wav is acceptable.

Have fun and Happy Recording!

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

Oh i hope a lot of people do this!

 

[WillsBabe]

Just listened to the 2005 Christmas wish, that was lovely. What a great idea!

 

[RJDiogenes]

I'll whip something up. What's your deadline?

 

[Jadzia]

Sounds like a nice idea.

If you need any help with the final composition Flukie, I'm at your disposal

Just for completeness, Hanukkah this year is (I think) on 11th December, while unfortunately the month of Ramadan has already passed, this year occurring between the New Moons in August and September.

I think I might have a go at it too. My weapon of choice is Audacity, which works for me.

 

[AstroSmurf]

Oh my. I just listened to the 2005 recording and I must say... DAMN! J.Allen has a very sexy voice.

 

[Capn Flukie]

RJ, didn't think of a deadline, so let's go with December 15th. I know folks will be busy making black and white avatars right about now.

Participants so far;

AstroSmurf

Let's keep 'em coming!

 

[RJDiogenes]

That should be plenty of time. If I can't do it this weekend, there's a long weekend coming up so I'll do it then.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

Participants so far;

Perhaps you could keep the list of confirmed participants a secret... it'll be a nice surprise to see who is there or not.

 

[Jadzia]

^but he can tell us the number of participants.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

Hmm. This is sounding a lot like Holdfast's matchmaking thread again...

 

[RJDiogenes]

We can follow this up with an Audio Matchmaking Thread. J Allen isn't the only one with a sexy voice.

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

Damn right he's not.

 

[Jadzia]

I was just thinking... it might be nice if people here could make things for christmas, such as a video message, or a photoshop, a painting, an animation, a photograph, a short story, a poem, or whatever you like. Being creative, and making a little more effort than what we do for our normal posts. And one day we would agree upon to upload them, and it would be like christmas presents, with the exception that they're addressed to everybody instead of just one person.

 

[Capn Flukie]

That could be fun!

 

[AstroSmurf]

^ I love that! I have an idea already.

I remember your advent calendar last year. It was very nice indeed.

I don't have anything specific at present, but I like the idea of this.

Well, I'm always in the mood to do some Photoshopping! So I'll probably do that. And I might lend my manly, Yorkshire tones to Flukie's project. If I can find my microphone...

That didn't yeild anything now, did it?
