Title: OPR in the news
Post by: Dave on July 10, 2006, 01:36:29 PM
OPR got some good press courtesy of Jim Colburn on The Digital Journalist website. You can check it out here: http://digitaljournalist.org/issue0607/one-really-great-idea-and-one-really-stupid-idea.html (http://digitaljournalist.org/issue0607/one-really-great-idea-and-one-really-stupid-idea.html)

We should also be seeing a new round of press soon as I have been contacted recently by a couple of reporters about doing stories.

Greetings Dave

How fantastic that others appreciate what OPR is doing.  You and Becky deserve the positive press and then some!

Great work that altruistic endeavours are to be recognised! I believe in Karma - and that when you give it's better than receiving...well done. :up:

Dave,

Is there any type of press release that OPR has that we could submit to our local papers?  This would certainly help trigger more volunteers and donations to the cause.  Just a thought....

By the way, I am really enjoying my time on the restorations.  Although summertime in Montana is the time to be outdoors, I am always anxious to get back to my computer and continue working on my pictures.

Congrats Dave, Becky, Mike, and all!  I tried writing an email to Oprah and Extreme MakeOver, but haven't had any response back.  They both featured photo restoration for disaster victims, and I wanted them to know that you guys (we) were the first!
