Only 11 days to go then the next official iStockalypse – HQ Calgary- 2009 starts in early August. Yesterday I added a new ‘fax-scanner-printer-pdf-making-wifi-network-bluetooth-cf/sd card reading-whatever-you-can think-of’ machine to my homeoffice. To check the automated scanning functions I thought I do something ‘useful’ by going through the different istockalypse – minilypse badges – scanning and archiving them, as i collect those badges :-) So here is a collection  of ‘lypse I attended from 2006-until Mid 2009. The Badges are really just the Icons of the beautiful and amazing people, cities and countries I met in the last 3 years. So here is the ‘Mlenny Lypse List’ ordered by time.

Unfortunatly I didn`t find yet the original badges from Ljubljana 2006, London 2006 & 2007 and RedRockalypse II. Don`t remember if in 2006 we already got those membername badges…hmmm…if someone might help me out in remebering or maybe having a scan of a badge i would really appreciate to have a complete collection.

I’m also aware of the fact that I missed the very first lypse in Prag 2005… shit, but as an excuse I wasn’t a contributor at that time. My first images went online at iStockphoto in September 2005…too late to have the possibility to attend the Prag ‘Lypse 2005.

Three cool iStockphoto Meet-Ups are missing in the event list above, as they where neither official iStockalypses nor Minilypse – but very cool Meet-Ups and Group Shootings of iStockers.

- ‘Swisslypse’ April 2009 organized by Michael J. in Aarburg, Switzerland
- ‘Frankfurt Coa’ June 2009 organized by Thomas P. in Frankfurt, Germany
- ‘I love New York in June’ July 2009 organized by Nuno S., Bent N. and Ethan M. in New York, USA

So next stop of the iStockalypse Travels is Canada. I can`t wait to finally put my feet into the HQ. Update coming afterwards….
