I was thinking of popping a disposable camera in a padded envelope and sending it on its merry way to someone from BF2s. they in turn, take a photo of something / someone /someplace that represents their Country or at least of importance to them

...they in turn, pop it back into the envelope and send it on its way to another member, in another country.

At the end, we obviously get the photos developed, posted here or flicker etc etc
I think it would also be a good Idea to use the same envelope as for stamps!! (like a suitcase in a nostalgic film) I think maybe about 3/4weeks to get it back to me ??

RULES :

Try and send it to the person who you are nearest to i.e Im in Ireland I would send it to someone in the UK then they send it to France/Spain/Germany etc etc

Please use Name/Country/State and or Area

# No nude stuff please images will be posted here !
# One shot per person
# Don't wind the camera until you are about to take your picture (and leave unwound when posting it on)
# Pass it on to anyone on the list in any country (make sure they havnt recieved it already)
# PM each other address', don't be posting them here !!!!
# Please sign your name on the 'sticker labels' i'll be sending with it
# Try and keep us informed where the camera is and where its going next
# 32 places its on a 1st come baises.
# Post the camera back to me, please

List is NOT in oder of postage, just to show how many shots left.

Put me last, we always do. We've tried twice now to send something 'round the world, STILL nothing has arrived in my mailbox. Never a disposable camera though, good idea.

Why not just have a thread and have an ordered list where everyone submits a photo? The disposable camera is cool in theory but most likely doomed to failure.

You mean like the flickr group? Why not just have a new task for the group

I like the idea of everyone using the same disposable camera, so put your name down fag.

I think it should be 1 photo per state for the US and 1 photo per a country so we can have a photo of a lot of different places instead of 2 photos that were taken what a mere 4-6 hours away?

Yeah I know but theirs a lot of us from the same area, and I wouldn't really want to see the same place twice or anything like that, but I agree that would cause a flame war, and that would be bad

I'll tell you what... I'll start the flickr group task and you start the disposable camera around the world.
Let's see how it goes.

Not trying to sound like a negative Nancy but we've tried similar projects before.

Haha true that! have you ever been to central valley? let alone visalia-fresno lol?
I drove down to Santa Ana this friday and came home sunday night just in time for some sleep for school, and I love it down there! especially the freeways, their are like 6-8 lanes instead of 3-4 where I live, and going north is barely any traffic and you can like go 100mph and go from the farthest right lane to the left in seconds!
