Time for a new set of 'Random Images'? - 12-22-2009, 11:18 AM

So how about it chief? I suggest we dump the entire set (especially mine) and refresh the portal image pool. I know I've see some amazing stuff displayed here that deserves front page status.

Can I get an amen? A second? A shave and a haircut?

I just added an amen. Too bad there's no "Scott, you're a doofus, but I agree" choice :-)

I don't know about dumping the entire set.. but it certainly needs a refresh.

I added a few images to the thread Abel linked in his post. Let's keep it going!

I know there are a bunch in the wedding & sports sections. Somebody take charge and add a few to the mix.

how about duplicating that post and making it a sticky for a while to get more participation across the different sections?

What about a 'pic of the week?'

I'd be happy to handle that on a weekly basis....

Sounds like a good idea Chris, it might encourage folks to post more images.
