So...I heard, or rather read, about this site Flickr.com in my local newspaper. The chick that has a column once or twice a week invited people to people to post pictures through Flickr onto the Courier-News group. No problem. I posted a few and one of my pictures actually got printed in the paper. Rock on! I wasn't really aiming for that, I just wanted to share my pics with other people in my community who are also sharing theirs, some of them are very impressive.
Now here's where I get a little bit perturbed. The Flickr groups are set up so that you post pictures according to the theme of the group. Sounds simple enough, right?
There's this Jackhole who for some reason finds it necessary to post pictures of crazy looking rock dudes he's photographed, his daughter (I was just checking the lighting), things in Chicago (they don't get the Courier-News there), and other pictures that have nothing to do with what the point of the group is.
I'm not saying that his pictures aren't good, because they are very good pictures. But there's a place for certain pictures, and it is not in a group that is supposed to be pictures from around our community.
To top it off...he doesn't even live our community!!!
He lives in Island Lake, they don't get the Courier there!!!
Talk about a scam. Dude, try showing your pictures to the paper where you live. If they don't care...tough shit for you. I'm tired of seeing your crap ass nothing to do with my community pictures.
Good thing he has his address on his site.
I'm gonna pay a teenager to throw dog shit on his doorstep.
I really hate pretentious jerks.
My pictures that actually go with the theme of the group can be seen here:
