Default HAHA Printed!
We had a huge lightning storm here night before last and I sent one of my pics into our small town newspaper, and they printed it front page! Here is a link to the paper website.

Did you get paid for it? If not, it's too bad, you could have been paid and you just worked for free.

No I just had my named printed under the photo and a mention in the article. I didn't see it as work since I was doing it for fun. Next time I'll send a bill.

Shows that you can buy print. Are they giving you money?

ETA: posted at the same time.

I saw that but when you click it the image does not show on the other site. I'm certainly not getting any money that I know of and don't see why anyone would purchase a copy of that. I sent it in on a whim and am just glad they used it and mentioned me. I'll take that at this point! lol Not gonna nit pick about that. Thanks for looking.
