FlickrJacking

FlickrJacking (verb) - the art of posting one picture a day to flickr,

spaced

out

just

enough

so that you always appear on that groups' front page.

    I rather like the art of spoilsporting deleting said picture for infractions of the code often infractions only I can see.

    This is way the only person who will allow me to be an adminstrator of a group is Becky.

    No names... just a trend I've noticed recently.

    Yep it seems to be getting quite common.

    I just don't have the willpower, if I've got pictures I just have to post them. :-)

    Have you noticed that in a lot of the cases, the photographs are essentially the same, with just slight variations in dress/pose/background?

    It has the effect of making the group front page seem static, whereas actually there's loads of stuff being posted.

    At what point do Admins step in and have a little word along the lines of "Hey, quit hogging the pool", if at all?

    Well, I have a culprit in mind.

    Although, if their lives are such a sad and echoing void that they feel they need daily validation from some chap w@nking off in his wife's knickers in Utah, fair play. Not my bag.

    Each to their own. Personally speaking, I've found I cannae be ar5ed taking pics at home anymore. I dunno what it is, whether I'm conscious of coming over 'all vain' or what.

    That's not to say that some of youse kids like Siobhan and Jo don't take perfectly fab and valid portrait pics for mutual appreciation (new styles, merengue dresses etc), but the 'me in a million similar poses' days appear to have headed to the outback.

    That is all. Move along. Nothing to see here.
