From our fearless leader, posthumous:

"This thread belongs to Team Suck, a ragtag group of militia... um... photographers who compatriate more than compete, more interested in winging than winning, in love than lustre.

We don't let a low score get in the way of a dream!

As our seditious philosophy gained ground, our ranks grew, until we became more than just a team. We became a league of teams in wholesome if not entirely serious competition with each other. And that's the way we all became Team Suck.

This thread is for suckers to commiserate and compete. It can also be used for anyone with questions or comments about the Suck lifestyle. If you do wish to join us, we ask that you participate at DPC for a while to see if sucking really is your style, and we ask that you fulfill whatever half-brained initiation we come up with at that moment."

Rule of Thirds applies to *composition*, not subject.

Join us at our new website dedicated to the suck way of life. Visitors are always welcome; stop by for a cuppa coffee, spot of tea, keg of beer, or photoshop confusion.

Nominate OOBIE or YAPPIE!

Team Suck Policy Statement

posthumous quote:

"I don't make these very often. In fact, I might never make these, but this is a pretty fundamental policy that I'm talking about, and it's a necessary one for our survival in DPC. It has to do with voting practices. Obviously, we are not responsible for the voting practices of our members, but to go further I'd like to suggest some guidelines for how Team Suckers vote:

- We do not share photos with each other and then vote on them.
- We do not vote higher on images just because we think they were made by a member of Team Suck.
- We do not encourage each other to vote higher for certain types or styles of images. We pride ourselves on our variety of tastes and styles.
- We do not encourage any particular voting method, though we might frown at people with 3.67 voting averages and make grumbling noises.
- The only way we might influence voting is indirectly, by enriching everyone's tastes and opening their minds to what can be beautiful, and this sort of discussion is never about an identifiable picture in a current challenge."

A monkey house is bound to be furniture-challenged, so I'll donate a comfy sofa and some cushions:

We must hang this up too.

Woo, monkeys! How long do you think it'll take purpleflutterby13 to have them running around with fire?

You're not dumb. It's "I think, therefore I am".

Really, I did not get it lol. It was the "ergo sum" part. Thanks for the explanation!

Damn, I wish I was still running a philosophy society, so I could use that monkey picture for some of our publicity :p
04/16/2008 12:30:45 PM · #15
Ah, we've moved... Not sure about the whole monkey thing, though.... I don't think I even have any pictures of monkeys. I shall look...

It must have been a moment of banana envy.

You'd like Descartes, Michelle - he was a mathematician. :)

Just so you know how tiny they really are. :-)

I've got flying monkeys and I'm not afraid to use 'em!

(Saw that in a gift shop last weekend and thought I'd *NEVER* get to use it!) LOL!!!

Hay Rob, I think you forgot to put me back on Chasing Butterflies. Not that it’s a big deal or nothing, like getting a 6+ that I haven’t seen in damn near a year, or I have a new one on my front page 4, or anything like that > > > ; p < < <
Anyway never fear my two in voting are back firmly in the 4s..

According to my script you're on Chasing Butterflies. If the first post roster is wrong, ping quiet_observation.
