- Welcome to PhotoPhriday! Tonight’s theme is water. Water is our essential life force – we cannot live without it and, in fact, we are mostly water. Our planet is mostly water. It provides us with life, but can also be a fiercely destructive force.
- Show us some water. Waterfalls, ponds, lakes, ocean, a glass of water, swimming pools, ice rinks (ice counts!)
And if you would like to read more about the destructive force of water, you still have ample time to read our Book Club selection The Preservationist by David Maine – a reinterpretation of the Noah’s Ark myth.
Stay wet! Wait, what?
Here are the rules. For those of you who are new look here and here are your instructions (taken and modified from earlier PP posts):
- This is the magic computer code you use to make pictures appear:
- <img src=”http://www.photosite.com/yourphoto.jpg” />
- And it’s a URL of a photo, not photo file. Crasstalk doesn’t accept files from your hard drive – only from the Internet. You can upload your photo to Facebook, Flickr, TinyPic, or any other online photo hosting site to generate a URL for the photo. For many of those LOLcats/dogs/monkeys I can’t seem to quit foisting on all of you, I use ImageShack or imgur
- Also, be sure to add a few words of text with your picture so it doesn’t get tripped up in the site’s spam filter.
- To pick up an image online, right click (or ctrl-click on a Mac) on an image and select “View Image” or “Copy Image URL/Location.” Copy-and-paste the URL and plug it into the img smg src html code.
