For anyone new, this project is a continuation of [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=353133). Since we can only assume that the nureses have locked **TellMeI’mNotCrazy** in the padded room, I’m stepping in and posting the themes for the month of February: [ul] [li]the colour purple (no, not the movie)[/li][li]words[/li][li]something you see within five minutes of waking up[/li][li]photographer’s choice, version 2.0[/li][/ul] Photos due March 1. As per usual, mine will probably be posted with ten minutes to spare on February 28. ---

THanks for picking up my slack, \*\*Treviathan \*\*- been struggling with DSL problems (I’m on dialup at the moment, blech!) since Thursday so my surfing has been fairly limited. Great assignments, though! I’ll be sure to post mine as soon as my DSL is fixed. ---

> [@Poysyn](#): > > Where can I post pics? My personal favorite pic host is [www.Flickr.com](http://www.Flickr.com) - it makes it easy to do things like upload multiple pictures, generous allowances, and just generally nicer looking than other hosts I’ve tried (like imageshack, Photoshack, etc.) ---

Here is the [purple assignment](http://static.flickr.com/35/95486489_002bf919bf_b.jpg). Words. Hmm. That’s an interesting one. I think [this](http://static.flickr.com/9/75025371_7aaca83f9e_b.jpg) fits the bill. The within 5 minutes of waking up assignment is in my camera waiting for the rest of the roll to be shot off, so it might be a little while. Lastly, my choice. Since I work in both film and digital, I figure I should be allowed to pick one of each. 😃 [Digital](http://static.flickr.com/13/91280097_df5fe0f784_b.jpg) [Film](http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=91607494&size=l&context=set-72057594054499490) ---
