Overview
The idea is a simple one: each Friday, post photos on a given theme. It's tons of fun, but the pay's for crap. Shane suggested the idea in February of 2006.
Use this page to keep track of upcoming themes and look back on past threads. Add your theme to the upcoming list and make sure to include your name.
Upcoming Photo Friday Themes
- 1 September '06 FURRY FRIDAY! ...once again and always popular, suggested by cmonkey. Post pics of your animal companions or other people's animal companions or... hell, you know... animals. Not even necessarilly furry ones. Bugs are fine, jon. Post pics of those "other furries" if you want, too.
- 8 September '06 "What's Wrong With This Picture," suggested by WolfDaddy, no PhotoShopping allowed: "...pictures that at first glance look 'ordinary' but something's subtly--or not--wrong..."
- 15 September '06 "Alice In Wonderland," suggested by lonefrontranger: "...this could be interpreted so many ways... i.e. white rabbits, top hats, weretable's Most Excellent Caterpillars [photos], macros of chess pieces, and general trippy weirdness... these are all good things, right?"
- 22 September "Pictures that Evoke an Extreme Emotional Reaction," suggested by Zack_Replica: "Everything from wonder and fascination to awe and horror. There doesn't have to be a specific reason behind the emotion (as it's all subjective anyway), just the picture triggering something in your grey matter that goes 'Yow!' "
- 29 September [tentatively] "Found Art," suggested by shane: "I like that. Stuff you just, um, found. Tripped over. Whatever. And it's, like, 'art.' "
