photo swap??
 

would anyone be interested in doing a photo swap? 8-10 people join. we upload and pass our photo(s) for a layout to the person below us. there is a then the layouts get passed to the host, much like the telephone challenge. the big reveal comes at the end and you finally get to see your layout! soooo anybody interested?

Thanks pennylayne for the fresh idea. :)

I do want to implement some kind of challenge that would let the members who are out of photos play along. I've asked a few people for input, and here is something that Jennifer (Disney Baby) came up with (thanks Jennifer for brainstorming!)

I'd like to know how you guys feel. Do you want to try pennylayne's or Disney Baby's ideas, or perhaps a cross between the two? Or, do you have an additional ideas?

Thanks!
Carol

i was just thinking this same idea a couple days ago!!

i love the idea, either way sounds good to me!

i like the sound of this.... but i would be very nervous to scrap for someone else, incase they didnt like what i scrapped.... my work never seems good enough for me let alone anyone else!

I love the idea of having my own photos scrapped by someone else. They're so many tallented persons in this forum !:yes:

If I have to choose, I prefer working on one layout at a time, It's difficult for me to focus on different projects. So if i understand the two propositions, I think Pennylane match better with what I can do.

I like the idea of people signing up and passing it to the person below. Originally, the proposal I made was for for people that don't have anymore Disney pictures to scrap - to help out those of us that are drowning in pics!!


I think we should start with pennylane's challenge. I'm in -

I like the idea of taking the photo from the post above yours and creating a layout based on it.

I would love to play along. I am one of the people who has tons of pics ( I am about 5 trips behind in scrapping). Thanks for the idea! Arlette

I have a bazillion pics, so I'm in too. :) I agree with Carol about having something so that those who are out of photos can participate (still don't understand being out of photos, lol.) Maybe if someone doesn't have any photos to share, they can just take the pics ahead of them, say they don't have pics, and then someone will come along next and post more pics? So this way no one is left out?

I am always nervous scrapping other peoples photos, but I do love a challenge, so I will be in.

Love Miranda

Sounds like fun! I would love to see someone else's take on scrapping my pictures--count me in!

Sounds great to me! I am in:woohoo:

Here is another idea.

"Minnie Makeover - (username)"

- somebody starts a new thread and will post either

1. a layout that they are not entirely happy with (and the individual photos)
2. a series of photos that they just haven't been able to scrap (perhaps lack of ideas or lack of time).

This person will also provide journaling as well as the date the photos were taken.


- others will use the photos to create a layout. They will upload to a (new) category in the gallery, and post a linked image in the original poster's thread. They will NOT upload to the 'venue' forum

We can then do one of the following

1. have the owner of the thread select a favorite, the 'winner' will post in the related venue thread
2. have a poll and people vote for a favorite, the 'winner' will post in the related venue thread
3. neither... just admire the layouts

Up for discussion (in addition to the above options): duration, how often to start a new 'makeover'

We can let the participants 'double dip' with other challenges (if they do not have any more Disney photos of their own.

What do you think?

you are so dang smart Carol!!

i love your idea. is it going to be a challenge? or just a sub-forum to itself for people to post in whenever they feel like it? i like either idea, but i am guessing that making it a challenge would have more people participating right? i think being able to double-dip with the other challenges should be fine, since this is more kinda laid back anyway.

I really like that idea Carol. I am running out of Disney pics, since my last vacation was in 2006!! I plan on going to Disneyland next year, but that isn't helping me now.

Okay, I took a stab at a new challenge. I've posted it here: http://www.mousescrappers.com/forums...ad.php?p=26552

Let me know what you guys think. :idea:

Thanks,
Carol

i like it =)
