i just wanted to say that i'm no longer going to be doing it. It started as something Aaron (the_reverend) and i did together. Of course he's been doing it for years and when we started dating he thought it would be a cool idea to do it together and something to do for the local scene...something other than his site..of course my site has other types of music and doesn't fit a specific genre like this one..and also, no matter how fast or slow i post my pics after he does, only a few bands if any, actually look at them...and for that reason i'm going to stop spending time and efforts doing it.
Having said that, if you WANT me to take photos, just ask and i will if i can.
Thank you to those of you (including Aaron) that say my pics are better heh

I really liked the pics you did of us seriously. You do a good job.
[Apr 26,2004 6:30pm - dread_104 ""]

i'd like to see

god damnit succubus, just ruin my day even more now, what will i ever do without cool pics to set my wall paper too, and to tell all my friends, "ya see this pic, i know the photograper." way to ruin my coolness
[Apr 26,2004 6:52pm - DeOdiumMortis ""]
I'm still going to ask you to shoot us whenever you're at our shows. Of course you don't have to every time I ask either, but when you feel like it we'll lay down some red carpet.

Carina, you make me sad...

I think she's just feeling dissed cause all her pictures get 1-2 views...
so, she's thinking why bother?
but I can't really speak for her.
[Apr 26,2004 8:54pm - Sinistas ""]
I dig the way your pics come out. *shrug*
[Apr 26,2004 8:58pm - succubus ""]
wow a lot of replies...i honestly didn't think people would care..it's like aaron posted above...i talked about it with him..so yeah..he CAN speak for me and he's right..i did feel dissed..thanks for the love
the only reason i posted this is for those who actually want me to take pics, so they'd know and if they want me to, just let me know.
My site is not focused like this one, i have a bit of everything on it...the message board is different too, i try mixing things up, and a lot of people are open minded...but some are not and i figured some of the bands on here didn't even want to be on it..and that's fine, i just figured i'd stop doing it.
[Apr 26,2004 9:46pm - Kalopsia ""]
your site is really good carina, it just needs touching up though. i know how busy you get sometimes and how tired you get, but one reason that i'm always on this site and not on defyunlearn as much is because aaron updates the site as soon as he gets home from a show. right on the front page are links to the pics of the bands he shot that night. it's very easy and conveniant. i'm sure you might think you wouldn't wanna do that because you'd just be copying aaron and u'd wanna do things your way i'm sure, but his methods have obviously worked. as far as your forum, i dont know what else you could do there. i mean i posted once on there how people hardly post in your forum but it didn't help in increasing traffic, so i'm out of ideas. i just hope u don't give up photography or the site because you're an excellent photographer and the site definately has lots of potential.
[Apr 26,2004 9:53pm - Joe/NotCommon ""]
I told Carina I think one of the reasons her site may not get as many hits as Aaron is because Aaron's site is much more niche then deyunlearn.com is
But when the bands don't even look at her pictures, well thats just silly.
Carina I hope you will still come to my shows and snap some photos, also I still want you to do some Disengaged band photos as well, next time your schedule and theirs coincide.
[Apr 26,2004 9:57pm - Joe/NotCommon ""]
And if you are definately not going to take photos at shows anymore, then I hope you still come to the shows because everyone enjoys your company for sure.
[Apr 27,2004 6:13am - succubus ""]
hey guys, i needed a computer break last night...i'm really not feeling good, so i got some IM's last night that I only saw today
thanks guys, i'm not totally giving up photography because i really enjoy doing it, i just didn't think people cared, and some don't, but to those of you that do, yes, i will come to your shows Joe and take the photos.
thanks again for the nice words

oh and kalopsia, aaron programmed my site...that's why i have something on my main age to enter updates, like he has..it's his idea. i do not know anyone else who posts photos as quick as he does and i really do not think that is it. i have links to newest pics on my site too, but my site is not a metal site. It's nothing about copying aaron
[Apr 27,2004 6:55am - George ""]
i like your pictures alot. i hope you keep on comming to whatever shows i play and take pics

i understand. i wasn't accusing you or anything of copying him, i only said that in case u did think it. and it doesn't matter that your site isn't metal, because the majority of photos on the site are metal photos.

Although you've only shot my band one time I thought the pictures you took were great! I hope you'll still be bringing your camera to the May 21st show at O'Briens, we'd like you to take pictures for us. I'm not sure if you do weddings either but I've got one of those this saturday, maybe you just need a change????
[Apr 27,2004 10:16am - WhyamIandasshole ""]
I really liked the pics you took as well.
[Apr 27,2004 10:49am - Anthony ""]
I looked at all the CW pics on defyunlearn, awesome stuff. Haha, I think I may have been one of the only people though.
Thanks for doing what you do Carina and Aaron!

You're breaking my heart women.
[Apr 27,2004 11:29am - succubus ""]
ok obviously some people give a shit and made their voices heard..if you want me to take pics, let me know and i will ok?
i love everyone who replied in here

I would like to point out to anyone who doesn't think Carina gets a lot of posts on her forum that there is currently a thread on there that has 1657 posts and 18656 views.

add to it dude!

I can't until I get my digital camera.
[Apr 27,2004 9:55pm - MyDeadDoll ""]
Well Carina, I'm sorry you feel like no one looks at your pictures. =( I try to browse when I get the chance. It's your decision, though. Just know we all love you no matter what. xoxoxoxo
[Apr 27,2004 11:58pm - dread_104 ""]
carina, you're the only person that i like.(don't tell them, tho)
[Apr 28,2004 12:02am - phantos ""]
bummer...
[Apr 28,2004 2:03am - JonahBloodbath ""]
Just to reiterate, you photography is really solid and weather or not you update your site constantly you should keep up the photos.
that said, I'd like it if you shot pictures at the hoss show on may 29th with my band, anodyne, and aganihms last set..
[Apr 28,2004 9:47am - succubus ""]
once again, thanks for the kind words, and like i said, i'm not quitting, i really enjoy doing it, i just didn't want to do it if no one was going to look. When i shoot big shows, people look, but for some of the local shows...getting 0 views after letting the bands know pics are up shows me they don't care and if they don't want to be on the stie or whatever, i won't bother. That's all i meant.
but again, thanks and i will still go to shows
<3

Carina if you don't keep taking pictures at shows, Brian Morse will break my legs

NOOOOO....
I could go for a sexy, sexy photo shoot. Me in some leather thigh highs. Oh yeah! ;)
...that was gay.

:bow:
thanks to those of you who replied
:bow:
gay or not Swplord, why not?:spineyes::shocked:

If you took the ones I *think* you took of us at Tom's party, then I can definitely say they were great. Keep the faith.
[Apr 28,2004 3:22pm - attendmyrequiem ""]
you should somehow team the two sites up alittle more. like carina should put her metal pictures up here or something. just a thought.
[Apr 28,2004 3:26pm - Abbath ""]
ya why not combine forces and make an unholy off spring of some sorts?
[Apr 28,2004 3:52pm - succubus ""]
thanks norwell bob yes, i took pics at the party =)
but about combining the sites...the closest to that is aaron being the "programmer" of my site and some of his pics are on it .. when one of his fave bands came to town and he had never seen them live i got us tix and passes ..but it's not metal
this is a metal site and myne is not..
it's fun that we each have our own thing..
plus he prides himself on doing everything by himself and i commend him for that!! =)
even though a pic or two i took are on here
HEH

Hate him back because he gives the finger like a girl. You got to do it with more POW and more fingers involved:middlefinger:somewhat like this.

You better still be at Metalfest because if not I will cry.
