Talking I'm super excited!!!!!
Ok so i just recently got a flickr and the other day i was bored so i played with picnik and some of my self portraits and posted them to my flickr just for fun anyway today i was checking on my photo stream to see if i got any comments or anything and i was checking how many views each photo had and one had 78 views!!!!!!! the most any of the others had was 9. so im excited. i didnt even like that pic much...

anyway, if any of you are curious here's the pic, maybe you can tell me why it's so popular...

sad....

any feedback is good, positive or criticism. I'm kinda teaching myself photography so i need any advice/critique i can get

Thanks!

Did you check the stats? That'll tell you if it turned up in a popular search.

Nope. Sorry, I can't say that I do.

I've been told that I'm too "brutally honest", so... No, I don't have any thoughts on it.

Indeed

AdFreak: Shaq's ESPN 'fist kiss' ad draws complaints

Quote:
ESPN has agreed to stop airing this commercial after it drew fire from gay-rights advocates, who complain that Shaquille O'Neal is being homophobic with his angry denial of Mike Breen's oddly worded request for a "fist kiss." And he probably is being homophobic, though I don't blame Shaq for turning Breen down. Nothing about the term "fist kiss" sounds pleasant. Of course, Shaq could have been more polite about it. His demeanor doesn't exactly "send a positive message about the camaraderie of sports." But then again, he could have been cranky about something else, like his free-throw shot.
