Hi all,
While I was at the Frankfurt Prolight & Sound show, I met a user who showed me an Excel file he had accumulated. There were around 350 shows listed!! Those shows include the ones that we distribute along with LD2000, but still the number is impressive. Of the shows he had listed, the other 250 of them were shows that he got from friends. Basically, he was able to trade shows with other friends who had made the shows for their own enjoyment.
He gave me the idea of starting a "Network of users for trading shows". Again, the idea is that people get together (preferably on this forum, so that the greatest number of users will benefit) and share the shows they created. Of course, if you created shows that you want to charge money for, that's possible too. And of course, this would not extend to publicly distributing the works of others without their permission.
Please post to this forum if you would like to participate and share some of the work that you have done with others, for their enjoyment, and in return get shows that they want to share with you. This is in the spirit of what Rupert Morris started long ago. And even though Rupert seems unavailable, and thus is unable to share his shows, there's nothing to stop other people from sharing their own shows if they want to.
Normally I would not put a post like this on this forum, and moreover, normally this kind of thing would never occur to me. But when I saw this was suggested by someone who had already amassed over 350 laser shows just by contacting other users and trading with them, it seems like a good idea to start a topic to see who is interested.
Best regards,
William Benner
