there is no need to drop the f-bomb. I am on about 20 of these groups and a quiet time is a godsend if you ask me. the other pota group is posting but its barely worth reading what they say so at least here in the dg there is quality posting and what I think of as a COMFORTABLE silence.

i think you compete too much with the pota group and you think they are "winning" when there are more posts over there but thats not the case because the most of the discussion there is rubbish, its LordT telling Jessica how cool and rebellious he is or Rory telling everyone how to think and what to believe and just technical silly talk that no fan cares about. the dg is outstandingly better because when people post here it is interesting and worth reading and you have to say all the biggest ape stories break on the dg first.

Relax Mike its just a group.

I think each group is different James but points well made.

As for the group being quiet ..I just think it naturally waxes and wanes.

Looking at the message history to see the number of posts

2007 was 4479 for the year

2008  was 2971

2009  is 6571 so far

...and if we have a quick look at the last three months (Oct, Nov, Dec)

2007 was 618

2008 was 1064
2009 is 740 so far with a couple of weeks to go.

So certainly there's been more posts this year than the previous two (Of-course that doesn't mean more discussion necessarily )

The group just seems to be "breathing in again" I'm sure it'll "breath out again" soon.

Best,Graham.

I think a lot of things play into why people post or not.

The virus thing wouldn't have helped... the number of posts did dry up then looking at the history.

I'm sure most people rationally know you have to open the attachment to get a virus... but Chris' E-mail had been nicked so people may be just a little more cautious, quite naturally.

I always read the messages off the home page and don't get them as E-mails so it's a bit different for me.

...but this also means some times a discussion can have been going on for awhile and of-course being in the UK means I seem to be about 8 or 9 hours behind every one else so often I don't have any thing really substantive to say or add.

The Manga thread was a case in point beyond saying how "great it was" and "don't destroy the mags" didn't have any thing unique to add to the discussion.

As I posted, a lit bit ago, it does seem that the DG is pretty much in the same area as the last 3 years when it comes to the number of posts.

I always think it works as a group when it "moves naturally" (Prodded from time to time but not poked)

Best,Graham.

HI Neil,

It was my understanding  that Chris' E-mail address had been nicked and hence the message with the virus  coming to the group but the group hadn't been targeted as such ...but I could be wrong ...any one know how this all works?

Best,Graham.

Everyone is also busy with Holiday crap. I've been really excited by some of the new finds, the new fanzine in the works, etc etc but other than saying "Gee, I'm really excited", I haven't had anything wothwhile to add.

I didn't even notice any slowdown really. But if there was I think part
of it may be the Xmas craziness setting in and partly the ebb and tide,
up and down effect Hilly mentioned.

I have not even had time to check out Rich's find on Hunter's site. I'd
rather have it a bit quiet now and then, than having tons of OT posts
that go on and on, like what's going on in the other group. I don't mind
the occasional off topic post, but when the OT traffic buries those that
are the intent of the group, that just turns me off. Right now they're
just slamming Kevin Smith. (OK, I LIKE Kevin Smith. Maybe that's why I'm
turned off).

Have you resolved the Word to PDF conversion problems? Have you tried it
on a few computers, or just one? I you need someone to try converting it
for you to see if it resolves the problem, let me know and I can give it
a shot.

Get well Jessica!

Dario

I know the other group works a certain way & they have their own personality & that's great. I try to be respectful & leave them to do what makes them happy.

But that's why I'm usually here. I'm just not into arguing over Kevin Smith,or fan created poster,or being facinated that Fox MOVIE STUDIO filmed multiple MOVIES on its OWN lot. The lot they have to FILM MOVIES ON!

So when things die down a little here, just be thankful we're not just filling up posts for the sake of filling up post.

It's all good Dario!

Neil's useless ( J ) but I have worked out the intricacies of Microsoft Publisher which converts perfectly.

I actually surpised Neil (and myself) with how quickly I adapted (mainly because I have seen Neil champion through PaintShop Pro and it's similar).

I've forwarded to Moxy his story on the WIKI - now entitled WIKI, WIKI, WIKI, WIKI, ZABOING (Gni!) – but Moxy does not have PUBLISHER so I'm going to just print and scan.

Jessica's article is complete and looks great.

Hilly's article looks so good we decided to do a full colour publication, and that's when we decided to include BEGINS and the back story.

Ty's contributions are looking great (there's a lot of the stuff that WOULD have been in the GN like alternative covers and the progression of covers from original sketch to final – and some absolutely knockout stuff from Richard Pace who was the first choice before Salgood Sam and he's a brilliant artist).

Neil's "BEGINS" is….well, I'm biased but I reckon it's worthy of professional publication (Ty agrees and he'd know!). Also a selection of pin-ups by Neil.

Drew Gaska has now contributed a sketch of the cover for CONSPIRACY (WOW!) and a pencil & then finished colour picture of an unseen until now illustration by a new artist that nearly knocked me off my chair when I saw it…

Drew is also interviewed and there's the comprtition for a CONSPIRACY set of the two posters (autographed & framed) and the trading cards/dogtags.

It's 40 pages (maybe now 44 – YIKES!) and will cost $1,000 (or $1,100) to print 50.

This means to cut even we need to sell each issue at $20US. So in other words we won't cut even because when you add postage, we lose. But we are offering issues for $20 including postage. I know this isn't cheap but when you think about the content and the fact that I'll lose about $10-$20 on each issue (depending on postage costs) it's value for money.

Here's hoping I get 50 sold.

Looks like they will be shipping around mid January 2010.

Yeah I know – I wasn’t talking about mocking Ploog’s style I was talking a FOSTER style TERROR!  AND you have the original script!

Well, I’m excited!  J

because Whitty mentioned it.....but we should have known better. After all, he's just a writer. :)

I was thinking it would you be continuing Ploog's work on Apes. Didn't put together that he wasn't doing Apes when these scripts would have been used.

HI Neil,

It was my understanding  that Chris' E-mail address had been nicked and hence the message with the virus  coming to the group but the group hadn't been targeted as such ...but I could be wrong ...any one know how this all works?

Yeah, but that's because they'd left the "viking apes" behind...but I suppose they still had the "Gorilloids"

I did, but sadly, the only stories he recalls anymore are those in the scripts.

> Hey - way to go Rich! Any way you could ask Doug if/how he intended to wrap up TERROR?

Yeah, I forwarded the scans of FZP to Doug and asked if they sparked any memory, but they didn't. I also discussed the scans with the children of artist Sonny Trinidad since his name was on the boards on which the artwork was mounted, but they both said he had no memory of having illustrated it. So we have a Marvel story written in Moench's style that he doesn't recall writing...and drawn in Trinidad's style that he doesn't recall drawing. Quite a mystery. Hopefully, one of these days, the page with the writer/artist credits will pop up, and we can finally have a definitive answer.

Each year I try to give an X-mas donation to the Gorilla Foundation to aid in the care of Koko, the gorilla who comunicates through sign language, whom I've been facinated with since I was a kid.

This year as part of a thank you, they sent me a dvd of the Nature special from a while back. It documents Koko's life & in it was a section from when Koko was young. Penny is trying to get Koko to pick up her mess, much like a child.... all Koko wants to do is play with her Planet of the Apes Mego figures! Which Penny takes away till Koko does as she was asked. Its only a few seconds but it was really cool to think that Koko was playing with the same toys as I was when we were "kids."

I'm going to try & send her a few of the retro figures. I wonder if she can experience "nostalgia?" She has surprised everyone with other emotions she has expressed.

.html <.html

I've sent them an email asking if it would be okay to send Koko a set of the Retro Planet of the Apes figures & asked if she's ever shown any signs of "nostalgia". We've donated books & stuff before, so I'm sure it will be okay. I'll keep you posted once I get a reply.

I would love to but I can't seem to find a way to do so on my girlfriends laptop & my computer has been out of commission for months now. Luckily I was able to just plug my external hardrive to her laptop like nothing ever happened. I've even tried to export the video file to Divx but none of the programs will let me capture or remove that segment to post to youtube. Any suggestions?
