Hearing Nothing at the moment
Here's a Photo Shoot that will make you fire up your photoediting software:
Your Monday Photo Shoot: Turn something an unexpected color. Most photo editing software will let you fiddle with the hue of your photos: Use that feature to make your photos subject a color it would be impossible (or at least, very unlikely) for it to be in real life.
For example, my wife, here proving that contrary to what you might have heard from certain frogs, it is indeed easy being green:

In my case, I fiddled with the background so everything else in the picture is the color it's "supposed" to be, but don't feel you have to be as obsessive-compulsive as I am. It's okay if everything is a little off-color. Also, don't feel like you have to turn people green (or orange, or purple) -- everything from sunsets to pets is up for off-color consideration.
Pick a picture, fiddle with it in your photoediting software, then post it in your blog or journal -- and then come back here and leave a link. Unleash your creativity -- this could be a lot of fun.
(Since there a likelihood of kids involved in these pictures, a reminder of AOL's standard disclaimer: Please be careful about posting pics of your kids, especially kids under 13. You shouldn't post personally identifying information (such as the name of their school), which could easily be used by people you don't know on the Internet to contact them. Also, it's against official policy to post photos of other people's under-13 kids (this includes relatives) without parental permission.)

As to what John said about posting kids photos, please read this. And for those who know what I mean, no, I will not stop talking about it. Tammy
