Title: 365 project
Post by: Lara on April 18, 2008, 12:27:47 PM
anyone into the 365 project on flickr?
a friend of mine told me about this last night (it's been going on for a while but I'm not always cutting edge, ha ha)

anyway it's a self portrait shot for 365 days.  I love it.  I'm starting today and wondered if maybe we'd want to open up a blog here for a DT 365 self portrait project??

I've seen this before - a guy on a blog I read was doing this.  It's pretty neat.  How would we set that up here?

I don't know - good question, lol
I've seen it through flickr but it looks like it links to a lot of personal sites too.  I think in a blog it would be a collaborative blog, right?

I was part of a group that did this but it was every thursday that we would post pics and it was anonymous so it was only shadows or certain body parts - like feet at a beach and stuff.

OK, maybe I can set up a blog with multiple authors.  I'll give it a shot.

OK, I can add contributors if they're already members of the blogging community (have to search for members to add by email).  Want to test it out for me by creating a login for yourself and then I'll see if I can add you?

I see weekly themes on this page - seems like a really neat idea!
Examples...

Week 1: Our Shoes
Week 2: Our Breakfast
Week 3: Hallways
Week 4: Transportation

Week 51: Light
Week 52: Memories

So, are we supposed to have our face in the photo, or can it just be of us in some way?  I know I won't post a picture every day but I can easily take one every day with my phone...

I think that sounds so interesting! I don't know if I could manage to do it every day, but I may join in on a weekly basis...

I think it can be something about it - not necessarily our face.

also, I posted a comment back to you - I think it might be easier to do just one day a week.  I could post here on a day we decide to remind anyone who wants to be a part of it :)

I realized that the last time I upgraded my computer, I didn't put photoshop or image ready back on it.  Soooo.....I can't edit any photos!  And the ones my phone takes are too big.  So, until I get my software situation fixed, I can't participate after all. :(
