I'd suggest that for Patterns, you don't need an idea - just a camera. Go out and see what you can find, rather than "creating" something. There are patterns everywhere! Granted, those that "create" a lovely studio image will probably score better, but I'm betting they won't have as much fun. If I get a chance, I may shoot for this challenge. Patterns are one of my favorite subjects! (Then of course I'd have to find somewhere to get internet access where I can actually upload...)

I don't know where the appropriate thread is but I have a Yappie nomination... Can I just post stuff here?

My nomination is for

CNovack - originally I was impressed with the comment on this entry because she gave not only suggestions for improving but specific lighting suggestions to implement what she was talking about. And taking a look at other comments she has given I was even more impressed by the detailed and thoughtful remarks she consistantly gives.

(I'm gonna feel silly if she's already been nominated)

Ahhh yes, I know the feeling of frustration at seeing those lovely studio images which I cannot yet accommplish!

Well for now at least. Next time I lose it though and have to search for it I will look for yours at the same time.... silly sanity.. it often likes to run off......

And on that note.... seeing as how it suddenly became post-3:00 am (!!) I am off to bed, to dream about what I'll be doing for "Harsh Environments". :-)

Many happy returns to our founding novice. Come back to rescue the floundering others?
Hamble krid to the crew.
I put a straight ten on the skewsme swans. It may be out of the box by comparison with the other entries, but it seems pretty much bang on subject to me (sky n all).

We need more of the Suck League to pipe up and pick a line to record at the: DPC Christmas Poem. If a shy, quiet, self-effacing sucker like me can do this, so can you.

Don't have a microphone,

L2, has a phone number to call on Saturday. PM

L2 for details.

Wave those proud suckers high!

Belated Happy Birthday to

Liltritter. You deserve to feel like this

if your family didn't even acknowledge your special day. Shame on them. Pile on that guilt.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year to Team Suck. Love you all.

Even after the challenge closed

sherpet was so sure this was

Judi's entry that she didn't notice the true genius who created it.

I'm quite flattered by the mix-up.

And yes, I am a true genius according to my own definition! hahaha

I'm stuck on gender issues. I hate using the plural "they" but is it patronizing to give the men "he" shirts and the women "she" shirts? Or does everyone get the generic "he," a leftover from more sexist times?
