next photo assignment series

Hi all -

Do I understand that photo assignment #10 is the end of the road for our weekly assignments??

I've really had a lot of fun with this (thanks Will!!) and hope there is interest in having it go on. Anyone else?? I'd even be happy to post the assignments on a weekly basis to give Will a break.

Thoughts??

Bill Z

I thoroughly enjoyed the project also - thanks Will!!!!

I think Wendy is planning on some Christmas card ideas which it would be fun to share. With my large family I will be knee deep in projects for them until Christmas. They have come to expect hand made gifts and I really kick into high gear about now.

Bill your offer is wonderful and if others are too busy at this time of the year maybe it would be a great way to kick off 2006!

Will...Thank you for the effort you put into this project. It was fun.

Bill...I would like to continue as long as I don't have to do much beyond basic editing. I've hit a flat spot on the learning curve and am going nowhere fast.

Eva :wink:

Assignment #10

I'm disappointed too that it's ending because I just got started. Hopefully after the holidays someone will get it up and running again. Thanks Will for your time and efforts. It was really fun to see how everyone interpreted the assigments.

Well it was fun doing the assignments. Coming up with a subject that everyone could do was the challenge -- because you can't do snow for people in Florida or even considering Australia and New Zealand both of which have forum members -- their seasons are the opposite of ours. So it was fun and the original plan was to run a series of assignments for a period of time.

I have no problems with Bill doing a series -- though I was thinking on the next set of photo assignments doing something more with photoshopping the pictures.

The original reason was to get people back to their cameras and it turned into a wonderful experience.

I'll be hosting team scrapbook assignments -- so check out the Scrapbooking Forum for some fun ideas on using PSE creatively...

A couple people have mentioned waiting until after the various holidays. January 1 is a Sunday, what do those interested think about starting off 2006 with a ten week series of assignments?? If that's agreeable, we'll do it.

I'm in Pacific time zone which is GMT -8, so I can post late night Saturdays here and it can be available in the UK and west Sunday mornings.

If you have topic suggestions please let me know .... either post them or PM me. I'd also like to know how much photoshopping you'd like to see allowed. I was thinking of encouraging editing on some of the assignments, and not on others.

Thanks again to Will for getting us off to a great start! I'm looking forward to round 2.

Bill Z

New Series

Bill
Everyone here is really creative - and this is a forum for photoshop elements which is designed to help us be creative - so why not do a mix on the first assignment. How about everyone create a ficticious ad or product package from a photo they have taken of food or an object(I say as I'm munching on cheez crackers) This should be fun for all. By the way - can't touch the rest of those nuts I was eating earlier after seeing Carols "Bug Nut.".. :wink:

Photoshoped or not, I think getting us up out of our LazyBoys and taking pictures should still be the focus.
Mind you, I'm pretty easy and it's your baby now, so no moaning from me, whatever route you decide to go.

Nancy-sorry about the Bug Nut :lol: , but in some areas of the world people eat the bug without the nut :lol: !

I like your idea of an ad-that'd be fun. Also Bill, maybe a mix of assignments would be a good idea.

Thanks for continuing this-the night class I teach ends in December so I'll have more time after the first of the year.

Next Assignment

Carol,
Yeah - I've seen that on TV. That's why I'm staying right where I'm at. :lol: Prefer my nuts wrapped in chocolate chip cookies or brownies. :wink:
