This morning I was thinking of building a photo gallery that included pictures of me with all the readers of this blog. I have had the pleasure of meeting quite a few of you, I thought it would be cool to share those images with my community. I started to build the gallery, but then it occurred to me that it wouldn’t really be an accurate representation of everyone who visits. It seemed a little unfair to the rest of my readers; some of you just don’t have the time, money or interest in attending the events I go to but still contribute here.
Then I had an aha moment. What if you could download me wherever you are? We could take a picture together anywhere in the world! Awesome.
Let’s take a picture together
Download the image above, print it out and cut my face out. Take it with you somewhere fun and snap a picture…. be sure to stick your tongue out! Let me know about the picture by leaving a comment or writing a blog post that links back here (you’ll get a trackback). Be sure to let me know who you are, where you took the picture and where you would like me to link back to. I love to go to parties, weddings, bar mitzvahs and fancy restaurants. I will also accept photos from companies, it could be a cheap way to earn yourself some traffic.
I am going to take all the photos and make a permanent photo gallery just for them in a new section of this blog. I can’t wait to see where I wind up. I have always wanted to go to Asia!
I can’t believe I just printed out a picture of your mug. Why do you make me do such things? LOVE IT!
@Julie:
Yeehawww! I can’t wait to see what I do in Vegas!
Shades of Matt Lauer!
what to do with such a precious gift?!? I’ll try not to make you regret posting this too much 🙂
Ted,
I love that I can now have me with you all the time!
Cool idea Ted 🙂 I’m in rural Thailand right now and will take a shot tomorrow in my girlfriends village… they’ll think I’m nuts but what the heck!
It’s totally Flat Stanley with your head! Fabulous! I will do it sometime this week and post about it.
Could we do a non-tongue version, too?
@corrin:
If that works for you : )-
Is there any time limit? I wont be able to get to it until Tuesday?
@The Producer:
This is going to be something that is ongoing.
Oh, Ted – we are going places, man!!! I’m so happy I can have you with me everywhere I go. Haha… love it – this could go in so many FUN directions 🙂
@Heather in Beautiful BC:
I can’t wait to see the first picture.
Oh you are SO going to Disney with me this weekend.
I’m going to print one off, strap it to my face, and where it to IzeaFest 09.
People will think you have a twin! 🙂
Ted’s gonna rob a bank tonight and he doesn’t even know it !
WOW – I didn’t know how flexible you were Ted!
