Needed : Photo Friday Themes [More:]
I had to reformat my PC this week, and although I backed up everything in the My Documents folder, I had the Photo Friday themes people had suggested in a Notepad file on my desktop, and I forgot to drag it into my external HD.

So, let's have some suggestions for Photo Friday, and I promise I'll put them somewhere safe this time.
We should revisit some old themes, like MySpaceface and Impersonate a MetaChatter. We need to see more of our lovely newcomers! (and not-so-newcomers)

There was a time when we kept ideas on the Wiki.

What do you see when you hear this song?

Poles. (the stick in the ground kind, not the Warsaw kind)

Headgear. (hats, caps, helmets, chapeaus)

Color themes. (one week red, another blue, etc.)

People, places, things that fill you with joy.

I know, TPS, but I don't know how to update a Wiki. Perhaps when I have a list of themes somebody could do this for me, or show me how to do it.

Luckily, you know the Wiki Master.

(Of course, I only just remembered I'm the mecha wiki master last week... I suppose I should get to work)

I am lazy as hell and busy with it, so the chances I'm going to get around to doing those assigned ones are really slim. Therefore I love the ones where it's something you can dig back through your pictures and find something. So, I suggest:
Water
Pets - always a favorite
Landscape
Contrasts
Textures
Motion
Cities

Once in awhile, not all the time, because it is harder, but non-visual linked words? Less literal than photos of blank? Such as, but just brainstorming, not attached to any of these -


Mystic
Madness
Cold
Strength
Sounds of Silence
Justice


Assignment - photojournalism? With a story attached if you want?

Some sort of technical photo requirements - flash/no flash, soft focus, Foreground/Background, that sort of thing?

Thanks Jan, I love the Wednesday announcement. I may not have time to do a new one, but I might!

Wow, thanks everyone. Enough there for several months.

I second everything MGL said. I like warbaby's "chiaroscuro". And I like many of the other more abstract ideas, too.

Also: Silhouettes.
