3204) What if I don't know the name of the popstar but want to donate?
Please try your best to find out the name of the popstar(s) in the picture.
If possible, please check out the English name and correct spelling of
Chinese name from magazines as well. This will certainly reduce our
workload and your picture will be processed very efficiently before it
is available to the public.
If you really can't work out, just mail the uuencoded picture to Thomas.
<twong@civil.ubc.ca>. Fran will then run a "guessing game" to determine the
popstar name for the description. Please read GUESSING.GAME file in
/pub/multimedia/pictures/asia/hongkong/hkpa/popstars of sunsite.unc.edu
for details of the guessing game.
If you aren't sure whether the name spelling is correct or if you don't
know the English name, try you best to work out the words which sound
like the name. Mail Thomas the description with the picture. Then Fran
will ask the public to check the name for you. However, like the guessing
game, it is a slow process.
The pictures to be solved will be put into /pub/hongkong/hkpa/popstars/guess
for the period from 1 week to a month. Depends on the situation.
Please note that if no one suggest us a name during a guessing game (usually
last for a month), the picture will be discarded.
