Group Photo

Now PICTURE TIME! (This page will be quite long, so I apologize in advance) There is a photobucket with all of these and more here: http://s1265.photobucket.com/albums/jj508/htlgroupphoto/

(full size versions available here: CLICK IT! CLICK IT! CLICK IT WITH FIRE!)









Past Info:

Alright guys, it has come to the end of submissions for this project. Thank you to all of you who have submitted, you guys are the most gorgeous people on the internet as far as I'm concerned. My own personal deadline for mosaic photos is tomorrow. I've started on a couple, but I'd rather be able to give you all a number of them to work with- to post- repost- print out, whatever. Putting these images together is merely a way of showing that we're real people behind the cause, not nameless/faceless gamers. You guys are incredible. I am honored to be a member of such an amazing community of creative, hilarious, and thoughtful people. STAY TUNED for the unveiling of your hard work tomorrow!

I WILL BE POSTING IMAGES AT THE TOP OF THE THREAD! So keep an eye out.

(also- if you guys want to keep this project growing, please feel free to send your photos to:

retakegroupphoto@gmail.com

All right guys! Voting is still open, but someone made a good point. We can IN FACT create a few different images using the same program! So, the three initial ones I'm going to make are one of the HTL logo, One with the HTL Logo and hold the line, and one with Marauder sheilds!

So, here comes phase 2! (Photo Deadline April 14th, 2012 MIDNIGHT! EST)

PHOTOS! To best represent that we are real people, I am thinking we should use real photos of ourselves to use in this massive photo of little photos. You can make it of your best commander shepard pose/face/impression and it can be of your face, whole person, etc. Remember these photos will be little in the end result, so don't worry that any one person will be singled out.

For submitting them, you can either attach them to this thread via link or image attach/insert OR by e-mail if you don't want to have a giant photo of yourself posted here. Either way- I will be watching both the e-mail account AND this thread. In order to make this work we need roughly 100 folks to participate at the very least, but we can use up to 10,000 images.

E-mail address for group photo project: retakegroupphoto@gmail.com

ABSOLUTELY NO ONE ELSE WILL SEE THE E-MAIL ADDRESSES YOU ARE SENDING FROM!! I am a crazy person about privacy, so I absolutely respect yours. This project is meant to be a positive thing, so I want it to be as clear as possible about that once this project is over, I will delete all information from every party.

SO SEND AWAY FOLKS! GROUP PHOTO COMMENCE!



UPDATE: THERE IS NOW AN OFFICIAL POLL TO VOTE ON THE IMAGE TO REPRESENT WHAT WE STAND FOR!!

Hey Guys!

Okay- here's the idea... You know those pictures made up of tiny pictures that make a great big one?

http://cache2.allpostersimages.com/p/LRG/14/1430/CM4R000Z/posters/bob-marley-mosaic.jpg (Click for an example)

Well how about we do one in Honor of Holding the Line!

We've got the program we'll use if this idea takes off... but first things first.

What do you guys think?

And if you guys like this idea enough, we need to start deciding on an image that best depicts what this movement is about. Ideally, it would be simple, direct, but can be detailed if this garners enough interest (basically more interest/contributors means the image can be super involved.

So, FIRST: We need to decide what image best represents the group.

2. After we decide on an image, we're going to need pictures to fill this thing in. In short, pictures of ourselves. I've got an e-mail address you can send your pictures to once we get the main graphic nailed down, and we can start a second thread of just pictures. That comes later though! When we get there- invite friends, fellow gamers who want to participate. We can include up to 10,000 images into the main one, so think big guys.

I think the HTL logo is a good image!

There's also Captain Kirrehe (Kierahe?) Whatever.. that guy.

HTL logo for the win!

And a quote that should say
"Big picture made of lots of little pictures"

That's my favorite quote from Mordin.

marauder shields

we need a poll, I can already tell...

HTL logo OR a cupcake?

Yes, definitely a poll... How does one poll?

We ask the admin, or someone starts a poll in the feedback thread, and links it on this thread, and we all go and vote!

THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME FIGURE OUT POLLS!!!!!!

DECIDE HERE:

http://www.holdtheline.com/threads/group-photo-image.599/

VOTE! VOTE AWAY!

Photo ftw.

I think our photos should have some sort of relevance to Retake aswell. Just hold up a sign with something on it?

The Paragon wing would have been a good idea. I hate when I'm late for these things.

I like the HTL logo. I like Marauder Shields, but not as much, and though I don't know much about legal issues, I don't want to step foot in that murky water if there's a chance it could hurt us.

Update at the top!

Good work Hailey. I will post my picture first thing in the morning. I'll help spreading it tomorrow. Try to get a hold of @kihten. I'm not sure how things are working out with FB page...

Oh thank you for tagging me, so many threads today!
This idea is awesome!

Also how can I help?
Also, at the risk of sounding like a total n00b whats the code for tagging someone in a post? that's so useful!

you just write @ and the name of the person you want to tag.
So, for example: "@ Lady InkWeaver" (but no space between the @ and the name)

If you just start typing like you would on twitter, @soandso then there should be a dialogue box that comes up below the text box and you can pick someone to tag @kihten

brilliant and easy! thanks guys!
now, quick question - are there two threads about this? which one should i be linking up on twitter?
(sorry, jumping into this late & trying to catch up)
