I think the data doesn’t support the hypothesis because if a suggestion has enough interest it usually gets enough votes right away and gets hoppered. Whereas the ones that don’t get a lot of votes tend to languish there until they are bumped, then they seem to pick up a sympathy vote or two. I think the 30 day limit is a good one. If a suggested theme doesn’t get the votes after 30 days it likely never would without some serious prodding and pushing.

I find the smug pretentiousness of some jackass with a 5D and a $4k lens tell me how much better my shots would be if a just bought some good equipment. (Keep in mind this on the street and this person has never SEEN a photo of mine…actual event, at the dance parade this year!) I am a shoe string budget, I’ve given up a lot of things to buy camera equipment, I can only dream of having the money for that kind of gear. In the end, a good photo is a good photo if it was taken on said 5D or a crap cellphone.

The only time a photo is universally bad, is when it is taken on a Nikon

😈

I’ve had that happen before, usually I just laugh at them and stand in front of them when they try to get a shot.

I’ll ignore the Nikon comment because I like you 🙂

Have you considered dropping the “This theme expires in a week” posts? I think they just make people feel sorry for the theme and vote for it more….

I was going to say this also. Mods probably shouldn’t bump dying theme suggestions. Let them die a natural death and if someone wants to resurrect them with a different wording so be it. I also see no reason not to bump it to 10 votes for hopperization.

Nice! Have fun!

I think Schnee in in Europe so I don’t know if he can do anything.

I have to ask: Am I the only one who still owns an analog clock? I thought there would be several similar entries and it would just do –meah– because of it.

That clock was purchased for ‘All Night Long’; nice to have gotten to repurpose it for this contest. Makes the $5 investment only $2.50 per contest.

I didn’t use it because yours was better. I tried slowing the scanner down as much as I could but I never got a good sweep of the second hand.

The film talk got me wondering where this thing is right now.

Does bathroom wall graffiti count or does it have to be outdoor “art”?

Why would you take a camera into the bathroom?

I take my camera into some pretty strange places!

Teh Porcelain Kittehs = Fail… in fact Kitteh themes in general are Fail for me. Last time I got a 262nd place, I’m shooting for beating that record but we are going to need a few more entries!

[nobigdeal]

All my kittehs are of the porcelain variety as I have no access to living cats 🙁

I need a SFW call on Kitty hrbls?

The exact shot is slightly different but essentially the same.

OKTHNXBAI

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! OMG!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I think I will leave this decision to those with more authority than me,but I don’t see much difference between those and squirrel nuts.

I set up a Google Alert for my Flickr photostream to see where my shots end up, partially out of ego partially out of fear. Since you set your photos to all rights reserved an email to the blog should have them taken down. If that fails contact the hosting provider and start a DMCA complaint. I doubt it will go that far.

NoBigDeal: I’m glad you can laugh at it, because if I’d been “featured” there, I don’t think I would so philosophic. These little snark blogs featuring examples of things some impacted colon doesn’t like are the most degenerate form of narcissism on the web. Even the popped collar frat boys flexing their orange stained biceps are less self involved than some self appointed critic with marginal talent and zero self expression resposting another work to demonstrate their utter lack of creativity.

Yeah, that sort of stuff hits a nerve.

Yea I don’t really give a shit about critics, and whether or not you take some piddly little blogger seriously or not, by definition he’s still a critic. That is why I didn’t swap it out to a pic of Goatse or something. If it was being used commercially that would be a different story.
