Okay, first what's up with all the signatures? Good Lord! Get a clue, if your signature is larger than your post, maybe it's time to change.

Also, what's up with everybody being on a team? In one thread I see (signature line of course):
Team 20D
Team 30D
Team Suck
Team 50mm
DOF Llamas

And some teams have these baseball type cards next to the team (of course in their signature). And worst of them all is when they have their stock photo link. Like I'm going to pay $0.01 for your crappy image.

I mean is it that each team get's together and plans photo shoots like it's a team effort. "Look at me! I'm part of a team! I'm someone!"

I think I'll create a team called "Lone Wolf Shooter" or "Free Range Photographer."

God damn that felt good! I should rant more often.

I wonder who got those crazy card things started. Someone should hang that person.

Adblock takes care of all those lame team cards and 99% of the other annoying crap.

I'd turn signatures off completely, but occasionally someone will use a link to something interesting that I don't want miss.

what signatures???
12/20/2006 07:13:51 PM · #12
I just turned them back on for a moment to remind myself why I keep them turned off.
Now I remember....
Thank you, D&L, for that "Hide" button!

I'll have to continue taking that chance :-(
At least threads like this remind people that not everybody can bear to keep them turned ON, so if they have something worthwhile to share, they can do it in a different way.

What I want to know is what happened to team suck. I look in at that thread from time to time and have yet to see the answer. They been lost a while now.

We'll let you know as soon as we figure it out!

(everytime I see that thread, I get the Van Morrison tune stuck in my head:

Whatever happened to Tuesdays and so slow
going down the hollow with a transistor radio
and you, my brown-eyed girl...


or something like that.)

We only tell the truth about signatures after a user has entered 10 challenges, sorry.

To answer your more-or-less-implied question, there's a side competition going on, finishing its third "season", called WPL (World Photography League) where teams of 7 photographers play head-to-head "matches" with other teams based on team scoring averages in the 3 regular, weekly challenges. We're in the playoffs phase of WPL3 now, and WPL4 will be forming up in early January.

I think the team cards are much less lame than threads complaining about signatures.
