This week's Photo Friday theme? Did we decide?→[More:]

I thought I saw a discussion about it, but I'm having trouble finding it.

There was discussion of posting photos of exes, but many were squeemish about that. For good reason.

Maybe this week I will post my contribution before Sunday night.

Taz had some ideas in this thread. I think Eideteker mentioned modes of transportation a while ago. I was trying to think of some too... Inspired by interrobang's art thread, maybe favorite piece of art that you own? Also, it's supposedly spring now (although it snowed here today), so maybe favorite place to go enjoy the weather?

Tolkien porn.

Oh, BTW. I need one of the Mecha ladies to put on some elf ears, as well as a long blonde wig if needed, shave all other body hair and maybe roll around in some glitter. Let me know when you are ready.

Or, a photo from a vacation you enjoyed?

weretable, how did you know what I'm wearing?

posted by amro 05 April | 12:07

Maybe we could post pictures of imaginary exes. This is mine:

Photoshopped pictures of yourself with Miami Vice cast members.

posted by weretable and the undead chairs 05 April | 12:27

weretable, you and seanyboy ought to set up "pornchat".

I don't really have any ideas to add to the pot, as I tend to take absolutely meaningless pictures and am currently obsessed with clouds.

posted by Frisbee Girl 05 April | 12:28

I actually wouldn't have to photoshop anything, were. Really.

Fris, I whuffle you!

Great hominy pancakes, no more dickering!

The Photo Friday theme for April 7th is MODES OF TRANSPORT.

*whuffles the Specklet*

Thank you, eamon!

[I hope my pornchat comment didn't come across as snarky, there just seems to be quite the collection of horny bunnies about lately and it suddenly seemed that a place for bunnies to full on get their porn on with each other would be funny. Apologies if it came off otherwise.]

I've also created a page on the Wiki where people can post future themes. Like it or lump it.

posted by eamondaly 05 April | 12:50

Eamon, you're great! I was just about to ask if we could do something like that.

posted by Frisbee Girl 05 April | 12:52

I like the wiki page. I'm a little afraid to post, though, 'cause they already have dates assigned. What if my idea is nooo good? I was thinking:

What I had for Lunch
Your Coolest Shoes
Bookshelves

Another thing for the wiki might be to link all the past PF threads there, too. Maybe I'll do that if I can figure out how.

Yeah, problem with me is I am fuax-horny. Porn for me is looking at plant catalogs. Er..

posted by weretable and the undead chairs 05 April | 14:30

Ha! I forget sometimes that the sass and smartassness doesn't always translate in pixel-ese. It was meant in good fun, weretable. I wanted to make sure you knew that.

Miko, don't knock yourself, you've got greeeat ideas!

I WAS JUST GOING TO STEAL THIS THEME AND MAKE IT "STRANGE AND INTERESTING PHOTOS."

Should I not?

Okay.

NEXT WEEK'S (APRIL 14) PHOTO THEME IS "STRANGE AND INTERESTING PHOTOS."

'Cuz I retain the right to be Stalin once in a while and I told you so ;-)

posted by shane 05 April | 14:52

Wait, I just looked at the Wiki... Eamon, when did you become Stalin?

Okay. It's all yours from here on in.

posted by shane 05 April | 14:54

sly fox
you planned that

posted by ethylene 05 April | 15:00

Aw, wait a sec, shane, no one's trying to steal your Stalin.

posted by Frisbee Girl 05 April | 15:00

Friz, "absolutely meaningless pictures" is great. You should post it to the Wiki (and quick, before it's booked up until 2008. taz already has two weeks in a row!)

posted by shane 05 April | 15:05

oh no fair
i haven't even gotten to do one yet
i like shtalin

"Everyone imposes his own system as far as his army can reach."

Anyway, I love the Photo Friday concept, but the topic confusion every week seemed to be a growing issue. I just grabbed the first couple suggestions from this thread as a start: people can feel free to grab a future week, a la Mecha Radio.

Miko: great idea, re: linking to previous weeks. We'll definitely do that.

posted by eamondaly 05 April | 15:15

if i can't be stalin, i reserve the right to put.
*pouts*

just kidding. i'm just glad this caught on and everyone is enjoying it. cool!

posted by shane 05 April | 15:15

shane: done

2006-05-12: "absolutely meaningless pictures" inspired by Frisbee Girl, encouraged by Stalin

posted by Frisbee Girl 05 April | 15:16

Actually, my ideas were really just off the top of my head to help get things rolling for suggestions; so anybody feel free to move those around or delete or whatever. I don't think they are necessarily that good or interesting, especially the "cheers" one.
