Weekly Photo Contest: May 1st - 7th "Minimalism"

[The Bad Guy]

Minimalist description.






Minimalist rules:

· You may only submit one photo per contest and the photograph must be your own work.
· Be creative, I don't care if you have fun or not.
· The contest runs for a week and starts now.
· At the end of the week, The Judge (me) will choose a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place photo, you might get feedback if your photo's any good and I have time.
· The 1st place Winner will start a new thread with the topic/theme of their choice, and act as the Judge for that contest. (Winner has 48 hours to create new theme, after that it defers to 2nd place).

· Please update the Weekly Contest Master List when you post a new contest.

I like it. I would call it, “No, your browser isn’t broken, so you can stop hitting refresh.”

That Ryman thing is hilarious! Yes, I know it's serious and all but to me that's comedy gold right there.

Sadly , according to the info , it's not on display . Maybe lack of room , or because they've got a lot more interesting stuff ,or someone spilled grape juice on it , or maybe just embarrassment? If they had it hanging publicly , I'd run over there and loiter around to eavesdrop on the comments from the masses .

I think someone took the frame off and it's still there on the wall someplace 'lost'. And even if that is not true, I like to think it is and I'm going with it until I learn otherwise. (I wonder if we could finagle some commission from @Apple fanboy if he sells his photo to some museum to replace the 'lost' Ryman piece?)

You just know some pretentious A*hole has stood in front of it and debated the "quality" of the perspective of some such nonsense right? Some people just need to get a new hobby!

Yeh, Flickr app on iPad giving me grief!
Can anyone give a newbie a pointer in getting an image up here from Flickr please?

I dont think they have fixed that yet sorry. You need the BBCode link and for some reason the mobile Flickr apps don't generate them. You need to open flickr in the browser, go to the image, click the share button and select BBCode, then select the link (thats the hard part) and then paste it in here.

EDIT: Remember there is a guy who wrote a web tool to generate the BBS code (not an endorsement in anyway but hasnt failed me yet).

Thanks to kenoh for the assistance.
Hopefully working now.
