Update (6th of May 2008) for your information, the following are the rules to participate in KUNA's competition and exhibition:
- Everyone can participated with 9 photos, 3 photos in each category (Written in the competition's Ad.)
- All photos should be printed in 45*30 CM (fees paid by the participant); also they want a CD of the photos in original size (Written in the competition's Ad.)
- Participants shouldn't write their name or place any kind of water marks on their photos (Written in the competition's Ad.)
- Participants can not claim their photos or CD later (Written in the competition's Ad.)
- All photos should be taken in Kuwait (Phone call with them before the event)
- KUNA will have the write to re-publish the photos where ever they want without the photographer's permission and without crediting him/her (Phone call with them before the event)
Because of the last rule, I decided to participate with two photos only since I already printed them, I initially thought I can participate with 3 photos (1 in each category) but after visiting them to deliver the photos I found out that I can participate with more.
After what KUNA did to me yesterday...The exhibition took place, the press came to cover the event and the minister attended the opening ceremony; I decided to do nothing because I knew it will be pointless since this kind of exhibitions are usually crowded in the first day only, on the second day you will find no visitors at all...
But some people at work insisted and kept telling me that I should do something about KUNA's chaos and to insure that they doesn't do that again to others in the future...At least to remove my photo from the exhibition...
So I decided to call KUNA and one of them was passing me to the other like a ball until I reached Mr. Adnan Al Ashoor...
I said: My photo is credited in the exhibition with someone else's name!
He replied: "There was a mess with the tagging" (DUH!)
I asked him: How many persons did you miss placed their names?
He replied: "Only one" (In case you didn't get who was he...It was me...Isn't that sarcastic?)
I said: Now what?
He replied: "We fixed the names"
I went back home and I found the reply of Mr. Hani Al Mawwash (one of the judges) on my flickr's post saying that he thinks it's my right to get mad but he doesn't agree with people's replied on my post.
The organizers didn't want to reveal the winners names before the event, so they placed numbers on each photos and they didn't write the names on the photos until the event's day, they had to fix some names just a little bit before the opening ceremony and it was hard to fix them during the event but after the ceremony they were fixed easily...The mess was in few names only.
Thanks for participating and sorry for the late reply...Etc
Thanks for your reply...
The replied of the people whom you found on my post were of people who are not related to the mess...How do you think I felt that day?
The response of Mr. Anwar Al Hasawi made me feel that my photo is just a piece of a colored paper...To me it was dragging my self out of bed in the dawn time, driving my car to that location to shoot that photo and coming back home to spend at least 5 minutes to cutout the blue line in the photo, then going to the press to print the photo and deliver it to KUNA, then I didn't sleep well on the exhibition's day to make sure that I attend the ceremony...To eventually wish that I didn't participate in the first place!
I felt so oppressed to the point that I almost "uprooted" the wall with my photo on it and leave the exhibition!
But if I did that, I will be the bad guy...
Anyway longtime ago I taught my self the madness won't get me anywhere, specifically with people who have anger control problems such as me...When I get mad I don't care if the other part was a kid, a man or an old blind grandmother crossing the street using a stick...I just lose it.
KUNA should organize such events better than that, and make sure that all people get their rights...Especially since KUNA suppose to be a formal/official place which is known in
If they already knew about the mess before the ceremony, they've should make someone from KUNA responsible to fix the names at the time...They shouldn't tell the participants to "Scratch people's names and write their own names on their own photos, after all we are outsiders not a part of KUNA nor the organizers...What will the visitors and press think if they watched an outsider scratching someone's name and writing their's instead?
They probably will think that I am jealous because I didn't win whatever the prize is, while I am not this kind of people at all.
Anyway when Mr. Adnan Al Ashoor said that the name was fixed, I knew no one will visit the exhibition anymore as I said earlier but my curiously was forcing me to go and find out what they have done to fix it exactly?
Well...They removed the guy's name off my photo and now there is a white space instead as you can see in the photo below...

Thank you KUNA anyway, it's true I was oppressed and that wasn't fair to me at all but I never done anything in my life and waited for a reward...I don't need the piece of paper which is stating my name as a participant in the competition and exhibition, they better scratch my name of it and throw it in the trash...I don't even care if they scratched my whole life of existence either...After all they already accomplished a big part of that, just a "tiny" part is left.
This is a must see movie, I think it's better than Superman and Spider man...I really do!
I also think it's the best movie ever by Robert Downey Jr.
I just uploaded it to show my support to them, you go guys :)
One of them is Mohammed (known as kila ma6goog) who I usually check his blog although I rarley comment but he know how he makes me laugh while the other blogger (known as Al Tariq) I never seen his blog yet but I'll make sure to check it :)
You can watch the video of the show "Ommah 2008" hosted by Mohammed Al Woshaihi on RAI TV.

I bought that printer months ago since it's a great photo printer, I didn't use it that much...Mostly for the exhibition the other day.
Anyway, a month or so I decided to print on a DVD, I spent more than an hour forcing the tray in the printer but it didn't work. Recently I went to the showroom and I asked them how to place the tray (that was after googling it and looking about it in youtube too) in but they had no idea...I figured it out my self and I taught them :D
The photo above is my second printed DVD...I love it :D
You can view better quality of the photo I used on the DVD here.
I wasn't really excited about the movie, since I watched 23 by Jim Carrey (I like him by the way) I hated all movie titled with numbers, friends insisted and I watched it in theatre yesterday.
The movie "21" has a new idea and I loved it despite the speeches which were censored for unknown reasons.
Here is the trailer
