Anyone need a testimony? →[More:]On flickr, I mean. Are you envious of those people who have tons of testimonials on their profile pages? Would you like to have one too? For the low low low price of free, I (or anyone else who wants to) will write a sincere and heartfelt tribute to your skills as a photographer and an all-around great human being, for as long as it amuses and entertains me (us) to do so. Speak up! Link to your flickr profile. You get to approve of the testimony before it goes on your page, so if you don't like what I (we) write, you can reject it. They're going like pancakes, so get 'em while the gettin's good!

Are you now or have you ever been...

I only have 1 testimonial
posted by matteo 21 September | 11:52
Ooohh me me me! I'd love one!

I've never had a testimonial! Please please testify here!

I would love one, thanks!

Cool beans. I already knows and loves some of the photos of some of the peoples in this thread.

(Don't worry, I won't write testimonies that sound like that...:)

It might take a day or so to do them all but I will do them!

This is like a gospel tent revival! Testify, iconomy, testify!
posted by jrossi4r 21 September | 12:29
Since everyone else is getting one, I want one too!

I'll return the favor one day soon, when I have less real work to do.
posted by mudpuppie 21 September | 12:31
Can I have one? I don't have any :-(
posted by cmonkey 21 September | 12:35
I have to you as a contact if you aren't already. About a month ago flickr flickred out on me and I lost some contacts and some photos, so don't be surprised if you thought you were a contact already and you get added.

Can I have one too? I'll return the favor...
posted by gaspode 21 September | 13:00
I'll return the testimony to anyone who gives me one. But it might have to be after this weekend, when I have a brain again.
posted by shane 21 September | 13:14
Please and thank you! I may also get around to returning the favor some day
posted by safetyfork 21 September | 13:20
Oh man this is fun. I also just discovered that I can't write testimonies for anyone who hasn't added me as a contact, so if you want the person who writes the testimonial to be me, you have to add me. You can always kick my ass to the curb after I write your testimony - I honestly don't care.

And don't feel the need to return the favor to me specifically - write a testimonial for a fav photographer.
posted by iconomy 21 September | 13:23
On that note, Shane I was going to write you a testi-monial, but you have to approve my contacts request first.
posted by safetyfork 21 September | 13:41
matteo, what's your exact flickr name? I see about 10 matteos - which one is you?
posted by iconomy 21 September | 13:54
Me me me!
posted by interrobang 21 September | 14:27
I'm having a terrible day and thanks for the testimonies so far, but I'll have to reciprocate when I'm in a better mood or everyone's testimonial would be something like "The world sucks and sciurus sure isn't helping much."
posted by mike9322 21 September | 14:43
which one is you?

no, I have a different username on flickr -- I post all my, ahem, PRIVATE images there. wink, nudge, etc

;)
posted by matteo 21 September | 14:52
What do I have to lose?
posted by box 21 September | 14:53
I'd love one. I would even return the favour.
posted by sveskemus 21 September | 14:55
I don't use a Sony, though - I use a Canon Powershot S50. The Sony was probably one I borrowed.
posted by matildaben 21 September | 15:49
Oh, the photos I looked at (up close) said Sony. I'll edit your testimonial - you have to approve it again.
posted by iconomy 21 September | 16:01
feeling so very needy all of a sudden

I also think that this should apply to people not currently in, or en route to, Las Vegas. Needy and petty.
posted by danf 21 September | 16:18
My testomonies that I do for others generally refer to their body odor and/or incontinence.
posted by Doohickie 21 September | 19:26
Yeah, I'm not too proud to admit that nobody loves me. Testify me, baby.
posted by dg 21 September | 20:42
I'd be happy to but if you want me to do it you have to make me a contact. Then I can say

thanks for the add!

like they do on Myspace.
posted by iconomy 21 September | 20:55
Oops, I thought I did that ages ago. Done now.
posted by dg 21 September | 21:08
Thanks for the add!!!
posted by iconomy 21 September | 21:11
Argh, dg...you only have 9 photographs in your photostream, and some of them aren't even photographs! This is going to take some thinking...
posted by iconomy 21 September | 21:18
Yep, underachiever and proud of it ;-)
posted by dg 22 September | 05:25
Aww, your testimonial made my day! Thanks!
posted by cmonkey 22 September | 06:41
How have I not seen this thread yet? Could I have one please?
(i've added you too, and thanks!)
