aw cmon guys u cant tell me the thought didnt occurr to anyone to dress someone up in toiletpaper? or.... like make a tutu on a doggy or something? even paper-mache flowers from toiletpaper? :-) string it along a landsape? idk.... wet it and hang it in the sunlight and photograph thru it? :-) -something- abstract even? like a macro of the fibers in a 2ply? :-)

aside from the classic 50's style sitting on the toilet shot with the roll in hand i mean- how about some shots like- toiletpaper on an ocean wave rolling in- or... like 10rolls filling up the frame in black and white at an obscure angle...or... idk put it under some interesting gel lights- and see what happens! :-)

someone has to have a butler with a tray kinda statue that they can put a stack of toiletpaper on or heck- even just one tiny piece hanging off the otherwise empty roll in an grafitti wall-covered stall or...hmm - wallpaper? :-D toiletpaper rolls hanging down the wall- after being plastered up in diff colors?(water makes toiletpaper cling to just about anything most of the time after all) what about a waterdroplet reflecting the toiletpaper package namebrand/ ? (for waterdroplet people! I so expect to see some kickbutt pix in this challenge... *sits back waits..*

oh and as for 'nudes' toilet paper wet- clinging to the skin... looks like a translucent bit of material if its 1ply (tears very easy too so u might wanna use 2 ply ;) ...i know some of u out there have some amazing models that could show off the subject in a wow factor!)

oh and if this can be done inside a roll that is -empty- i'm sure it can be done inside of a full roll with paper...

distracting myself- i had a really really bad day today so i figure i should just ramble on about toiletpaper since my day equated to what toiletpaper is used generally to wipe away- which is a steeming pile of... yea... i'm sure we'll see some pix of that at some point int his challenge too... toiletpaper wiping away the days worst parts-and what happens.. heh

ooo and toiletpaper can be used to wipe and dab at a child's tears too....

a dot of toiletpaper on a shaving booboo (dab of blood whiskers around the rest and just one singular dot of toiletpaper as the main macro subject? hmmm)

That last photo you posted is impressively creative.

that person has more images along those lines including cutouts of someone fishing/ someone hanging laundry on a line inside a roll etc...

we are only held hostage by our imaginations when we clip its wings after all - gotta let the ideas swirrl fly- soar and take flight to whatever they can potentially become! imagine how lovely several reams of toiletpaper could look with a model standing in the middle and the rolls twirrled around them from a circle in the ceiling or a clip like a may-pole- and the person nude with their siholuette showing thru the translucent paper perhaps colored or not colored.... or cutting out skylines with toiletpaper/etc- anything is possible after all.... :-)

Between the dresses and the diaramas, I think there are a few folks (albeit talented) that have WAY too much time on their hands. :)

I do my best thinking in the presence of TP, so this challenge should be pretty easy :-)

If it weren't for people with way too much time on their hands we wouldn't have:

Sketching
Utensils
Anything ...

etc.

These are the people who create trends, fashion, fads and other interesting things you may or may not find interesting.

True.

Of course, I think cameras, literature and music are as essential as breathing. :)

I agree but not necessarily in that order. ;)

Again, true. I ordered them backwards (for me, at least).
