*4/20/06: Hey folks. I rearranged a bit. I hope you don't mind. I bumped up Frisbee Girl's suggestion to get her turn in there sooner. I moved my "free-for-all" away from Frisbee Girl's theme, since they were similar. And I added 2006-05-12: "Something secret...", a fun idea from the suggestions below. IS THIS COOL?! We're a democracy, after all.

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.

Previous Photo Fridays

Future Photo Friday Suggestions

  • Emulate a MetaChatter. Make yourself up/dress yourself up/pose in what is quintessentially in a way that flatters or lightheartedly pokes fun at another member. For example, I might put on a rock t-shirt, a flannel, grab a beer bottle, and presto! I'm jonmc. (I could blur the photo for extra realism).
  • Something secret. Still have all your Babysitter's club books? Have a large Barry Manilow collection you're not entirely proud of?
  • Something that makes you smile (too close to this week? Can be very abstract, from a sunrise, to a person)
  • Something that makes you proud (a trophy, something you saved really hard to buy, a smile on your S.O.'s face)
  • Goofy clothes (take a pic of yourself in a goofy outfit, something you never wear anymore, a funny wig or hat)
  • Sanctuary (a favorite place, a park, a cafe, wherever you go to relax/feel safe)
  • Exquisite corpse - everyone takes a picture of their upper torso, middle torso and lower torso/legs. Then Photoshop mix and match fun.
  • Self portraits with as liberal an interpretation as you like or don't like.
