Fun with Flickr

Okay, any obscure topic in Flickr groups? Oh, yeah.

I checked out a few hobbies and found groups on stained glass and cross-stitch. The group that made me laugh was the Subversive Cross-Stitch group. Samples?

Here's a library science T-shirt in the waiting:

And a sample of the cleaner "subversive" mottos going:

I really liked one that said, "Girl... Don't Make Me Cut You!" but oddly, every time I loaded it, it didn't show, although Blogger seemed to think it was loaded. Hmmm. I've only had trouble with Blogger photo loading once or twice before, but I couldn't resolve this one.

I loved the Harajuku section of the geotagged photos, though I found Toronto's oddly dull. Sigh.

The tag cloud for popular tags was fun, too, just for browsing. Locations were big, as were predictable things like party, or wedding. The one that I thought was fun and surprising and I liked best was yellow.

Pail of Pictures

So I've started the Photobucket account and, because I'm not comfy sharing photos online, I've simply loaded it up with librarian images that are kind of fun.

My favourite one I've added as a profile pic, too, though at that small size, it's tough to see well enough to read. It's better a little bigger, though I've shrunken it a bit here so it doesn't swallow the whole blog, and while it likely won't show up as well on my blue backdrop, it's pretty cute.

This second (also with a nice blue coordinating theme, 'cause I'm just like that), is one from a website we all loved back in library school, but I especially enjoy it for its feel of being from a musical film where librarians dance in and out of the stacks singing. Hee hee. Imagine the complaints...

And last, one that cracks me up for the mental images it creates of how that reality TV show would actually look...
