Hey Tyler, thanks for listing this. It's definitely shaping up to be quite the festival.

If I have to choose between defending my Ph.D. around that time and the Microstock Expo, I am afraid it will be my Ph.D.

Oh that's a shame - I'll probably be there (living round the corner from the hotel) and I would have liked to meet you.

Mellimage · « **Reply #5 on:** July 15, 2011, 09:10 »

Well, since I am not living too far away from Berlin, meeting could be possible at another time. But yes, I'd like to be there too, just if I have to choose... .

LSD72 · « **Reply #6 on:** July 15, 2011, 13:38 »

I wish I could go. I was Stationed in Berlin when the wall came down. I would love to see how the city looks now. Hit the Ku'* and go hang in the Old Irish Pub in Europa Center.

My old work site is pretty tore up now. Teufelsberg, the old US Army Intel Site. I even think they turned the Barracks I was in into a motel or something. Would be cool to get my old room back...lol.

Since I've been banned with no reason at all from the Fotolia forum, I don't feel that welcome at their "Stammtisch" or at any of their workshops in Berlin - that would have been the most likely occasion to meet up. Maybe things will fall into place so you can fit "both under one hat", as the Germans say.

Pheby · « **Reply #8 on:** July 15, 2011, 14:24 »

Hey, I've been to that pub, LSD72!

But I'm not sure it's there anymore. Most of the trendy people hang out in the Eastern part these days.

no shank no conference, forget guys

Sebastian Kaulitzki · « **Reply #10 on:** July 15, 2011, 15:30 »

Since I am living in Berlin I will join of course

I do not think you miss much in terms of Fotolia Stammtische, because as far as I know they are not taking place anymore. At least no official ones. If you want, send me a PM with an e-mail addy of yours and I'll let you know when I am making it to Berlin the next time (and have some time for a meet-up).

Announced the Microstock Expo through my blog too to spread the news.

I would have loved to come to this. I'm in Netherlands and Germany for three weeks late October and leaving to come home just as this begins. looks like it will be really good.

Nice! Someone float a dime ...or a Phennig (spelling) on the head of a fresh Guinness for me when they go there.
