#61 December 13, 2014

Welcome To Our Family.

The rules? No rules; just an expectation that we all "do unto others." In other words, if you want others to promote your work, you should do the same for them. Those of us who take a full part in promoting ourselves and others try to do so for a 24 hour period or longer if possible. That includes opening the Big Skip and promoting the images in there too.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND HOW WE DO THINGS HERE:

Please use the URL for your image postings, rather than the copy and paste code. Posting the photo itself, rather than a link will make it difficult for people who don't have high speed internet, as well it might cause people to skip over your post without promoting.

Only 1 image is allowed per day, both in this discussion and in the group.

There is NO contest vote solicitation allowed on the discussion boards.

If you are posting nudes, or other questionable images, please post a warning notice with your link. There are children here, as well as adults who choose not to look at that type of image.
Please do not post links from your pixels.com account or any other FAA mirror site. It tends to create problems for some people and most will skip those links.

ABSOLUTELY NO images of nudity, death, cruelty or violence of any kind on the main board, where you have no ability to post a warning.


Finally, JUST HAVE FUN!! This is an incredible group of people who will make you feel welcome from your first post!!


TO ALL NEWCOMERS: I realize that some of you are so new to not only the group, but to FAA, that I thought perhaps a little clarification is in order. I'm sure you've noticed that while we can't require anyone to vote/like anyone elses work, we do tend to treat people the way people treat others. But I also realized that you may not have a clue what we're talking about, so........... to "like" someone's work, you click on their blue link, which opens up that particular piece. In the upper right corner, you'll see a few little icons. One is a thumbs up, which is what you press to "like/vote" for that piece of art. Most of us here press that whether we love the work or not. It's how we help each other to move up in the FAA search standings (even though FAA now says it doesn't count for very much, but that's now past history and it is what it is). That's all we ask of you. Should you choose to do so however, you can also click on the little heart (which is to add a work to your own "favorites" list), and you'll also find buttons for the various social media sites if the artist chooses to activate any or all of those buttons. These are the ways we promote each other. You may also choose to vote/like your own submissions. It's perfectly acceptable to do so.

Here's another article about that "most expensive" photo ever sold, only this one sold for more........ hehehe.... Just remember that it's tongue in cheek though

http://petapixel.com/2014/12/13/artist-jeff-frost-inches-past-recently-set-world-record-expensive-photograph-ever-sold/

So, who wants to pay me 6,5 million plus 25 cents for today's gator shot (see previous thread)?? Or any of mine for that matter. Let the negotiations begin!!

:)

Hi Lins

Glad to see you're still with us

Hmmmmm. my post above has me thinking. I wonder what would happen if I set my prices at at least 1 million over FAA's markup. Do you think the sales fairy (the rich one I mean) might come a calling?

 

Anne Rodkin

9 Years Ago

oooooooooh... what fun!! I just set a price (my markup) of one million dollars on one of my photos. hahaha Can't post the link here though, because I already posted today, but if things set properly, it's now the first photo on my profile page.

Hey, I decided that if I can't make any sales here, I might as well have some fun not selling.......... so there sales fairy!!!

Hello to #61!

@ Anne, I looked at your gator shot and I'm not seeing this stitch you talk of. To me it just looks like a regular gator. Where is this "stitch" at?

Busy day; I'll get back to 60 later. Was at the pool again earlier, but the school district which owns that pool has blocked FAA (along with a host of other web sites, but not C).

Judy, you actually can't see the stitch mark, but there's an area at about the center of the gator that looks kind of weird........that's not it. That's gator, but it's where I thought the stitch line was this morning until I looked at both parts again and realized that isn't it (not even close).

Warning - You will never be done of my horses. (evil laughter)

Don't see a stitch line Anne.

Came home and took a nap - wouldn't you know it was a nice day, but hopefully a few days more in store, but cold. Hopefully I can kick my funk.

Sorry about your friend's home, Denise.

 

For those on twitter how do you get the FAA tweet to show the photo?
