Brooklynian photo pool!

A new photo pool is feeding the random images, upper left.
You join Brooklynian pool on Flickr, and tag the photos Brooklynian.

I'm pretty sure you also have to send your photos to the Brooklynian group, not just join it.

Question:

Are you going to make a rule for posting pictures, such as they must have been taken in Brooklyn?

dailyheights

Well, duh.

You should make a post on the Flickr group page saying so

And a request to you all -- can you PLEASE keep it to pictures that are Brooklyn-centric? These pictures of one dude keep cropping up and I guess *maybe* they were taken in Brooklyn, but there's nothing particularly Brooklyn about the pictures.

Oh, this guy? I've taken to calling him Waldo.

No wonder things have been a little shakey of late..

Certain days, my social studies class discussion would go from tangent to tangent until we were no where near the original subject. My teacher, lovable old nut, would shrug it off with, "in social studies, when you're OFF the subject, you're ON the subject." I kinda see this the same way. If it happened in Brooklyn... eh, that's life in Brooklyn. If that's not your Brooklyn, add some.

brookfetish

Sorry - "Waldo" is me. I did a big batch edit with all of my Brooklyn tagged pics. I've taken the most of my pics out of the group and removed the tag.

Bah! Don't give in! Jeffrey is much more likable when loaded.

jeffrey

Sobriety, I hardly know thee.

Sigh.

i'm with whyfi on this one. rich tapestry of life, etc.

Just no goatse.

I'm looking at you, rhodamine!

whyfi

Goatse is rhodamine?

alafairnadia

no. I don't think rhodamine would do that. I'm thinking about a few other people (*cough*alex*cough* -- he did do it before!), though. I just added a bunch of pix including the original lounging barbie but they're not coming up. stupid thing is stuck on yellow cabs. conspiracy!

Did you add the brooklynian tag as well?

Problem solved.

I've switched the game to taxi cabs.

<hic>

brookfetish

I'm ONLY getting the cab picture now

apollonia666

Hrrm. I had suggested setting it up to pull up random pictures, but I wonder if it's been reset to "most recent"...

So, if you un-reset it, any photo (properly tagged, of course) can end up being shown off here?

it was random all morning, but now it's all taxi's all the time.

Hey now! That's my picture. I don't want to look at it all day either, but jeez...You guys could turn any innocent soul into a rabid misanthrope. :P :P

dailyheights

It's screwed up. Flickr sucks.

I finally got the "badge" to work so that it would display everyone's public photos tagged with "brooklynian". But apparently if you pull from "everyone" then you can't use the random feature on your badge.

So that means that to do the random thing on the badge, we HAVE to use the Brooklynian pool (not any photos anywhere tagged "brooklynian").

I think.

pitu

so . . . right now
1. join the Brooklynian pool
2. tag applicable photos Brooklynian

right?

super cool that you put the instructions with the photo at the top. good one!

the photos have been MUCH better since the changeover.
except that stuck taxi thing.

Actually, the way DH just described it, I think you have to:

1. Join the Brooklynian pool
2. Send photos you want to appear on Brooklynian.com to the Brooklynian pool

yeah, that's what I did (and I also added the tags b/c of course that was the rulez before) but dude. that fuckin' taxi picture. I liked it the first few times but now I'm kinda feeling yellowish.

Well, if I take it out of the pool it will probabally just jump to the next picture which is one I took of the church on 9th and 4th.

You guys decide:

1. Taxi
2. Church
or even further:
3. Hole in basement door entryway roof

Oh, screw it. I'm curious now just to see what happens when I take it out. I hope it gets stuck on the naked diaper guy and all your eyeballs melt.

jeffrey

So wait...is the meat vent an option?

caaahyoko

Ahhh! I took it out and its still there! Yay! I've caused the downfall of the message boards.

I feel a deep sense of accomplishment.


UPDATE: Ah, there's the hole in the roof, finally.
