And everyone can mark it as their favorite and make you (and them) look weird ...


which could, and will probably happen, cuz, while we all cringe while driving past some of these houses, honestly, who doesn't love the Griswalds? :)


Tacky by association - I'm already there! :D

Thanks for your help.

I now have a very clear idea on what this challenge is about (and when to use the words ;) ). Unfortunately that also makes it a lot harder to find a good subject. :)

Viewing all the entries will be fun. :)

Think Kid Rock singing "O Holy Night" in a white stained tank top and that goofy hat of his while Pam Anderson is decked out in a skimpy Santa outfit hanging neon tinsel from a Christmas tree that has a bottle of Jack Daniels on the top as the star...

Eeewweeee! That's tacky just thinking about it, LOL.

I'm very clear what "tacky" is...
As a site newbie, I'm trying to figger out whether to rate "tacky-ness"(?) or photo quality/composition/lighting, et cetera...

Opinions?

I like to imagine a postcard which humourously advertises tackiness. Therefore picture quality (focus, composition and clarity) has to be very good but subject extremely tacky and funny!

Steve, this is my problem with the current challenge, too. Photographing something tacky doesn't mean that the performance should be tacky, rather the subject. But as I don't like tacky stuff, I voted for the in-my-opinion-bests there and I left it alone. I like simple things, tacky stuff is not my challenge. :-) I leave it to those who like it.

Have a look at motivational posters. As a user, you can't vote for them, but they are wonderful just to have a look at them, too! :-)

You see zeus some of us have no pride. As you will see after the challenge ends if you go to my site. Maybe I do need a Dunce cap?:)
