Ok, it's still a new game, so here are the rules:
1 - Try to take new shots each week to post. The idea is to encourage people to get creative and actually take pictures, not just post those that you've taken in the past.
2 - Each person can post up to three different pictures to the thread. This should give everyone the opportunity to try out some different ideas.
3 - Discussion on the thread is highly encouraged. Wanna know how someone got that great shot? ASK, cause there's probably three other people wondering the same thing.
4 - Let's try to keep the pics to a similar size as those on the "contest" threads. No real limit, but it makes it easier on everyone if we don't have to do too much scrolling to see your pics. Try to make it so that no one side of the picture is more than 800 pixels.
5 - Have fun! We're going to do this at least one more week as a "discussion" thread, both to generate more interest and to make sure that everyone is comfortable with posting their pics out there for others to see (I know I'm not the only newbie involved
). But this is supposed to be fun, 'cause even if we do go to a "contest" format, the winner don't get nothin' but braggin' rights. 
I will post a new "theme" each week on Monday sometime (most likely in the mornings, but it depends on what else is goin' on out here in the real world), and the theme will run through the following Monday. Once we get into this a little we may find a different schedule works better, but we'll try it out this way and see how it goes.
Ok...now for the fun stuff:
This week's theme is: Pink Elephants on Parade (Animals)
Description: Now that Spring has sprung / is springing, there are critters all over the place, from new baby animals at the zoo or in the wild to people walking and playing outdoors with their pets. So...let's see those shots of the fauna around you! Can be your family pet, or pretty much any animal you see...just try not to get eaten by any of your subjects!
THREAD END DATE: MAY 4, 2008
Upcoming themes:
May 5: Reflection (Umm...Reflections )
May 12: Substitutiary Locomotion (Movement)
May 19: I Wanna Be Like You (Things in Pairs)
May 26: Part of Your World (Macro)
June 2: Colors of the Wind (Blue)
Ok...that's it. Now go grab those cameras and get to work!

I'm trying to just frame them better when I take them to avoid that.
