Newbies, calling all newbies

Boo
Hello and welcome to 365. I am Boo and I am rather nosey...LOL not really, but it would be fun if you wrote a bit about yourself under your profiles, always nice to know a bit about the rest of the family you know.
I am sure the rest of the cousins in here would appreciate it as well :-)
January 3rd, 2014
@huvesaker bahaaaa! too funny... but yeah - a bit of info helps kinda break the ice and start a conversation :)
January 3rd, 2014
Have to say I agree with Boo, if you give you receive. Must admit I am more inclined to follow or comment if something is given about the person and what they do etc. Why did I just look and not read about steampowered!!!
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@padlock we all made the same mistake..LOL Someone has to take care of him though
January 3rd, 2014
Done. Although it did take me a while to work out how to edit my profile. Some days I'm amazed I manage to point my camera in the right direction.

Anyway, always hard to work out what to say on those sorts of things.

Boo
@seathreepeeo HAHAHA I know the feeling..ooh off to be nosey...um...I mean um...who knows..LOL
January 3rd, 2014
Tee hee! Most people know me as a joker so it was only natural that I should use my profile info for a joke! I will go and put a bit of blurb in there... after the joke, of course!
January 3rd, 2014
It's there for all things nosey.

Thanks for the advice... I joined on Jan 1, haven't really had a chance to explore yet. I did put some info in my profile, nothing to personal though. I will go back and add a little more about me, rather than just why I'm here.
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@jodibear58 @kalm thank you for feeding my nosey gene...LOL
January 3rd, 2014
@huvesaker @padlock. OK, OK, your arm twisting has worked and I have updated my profile. Let go my arm, you are hurting me... bullies... ;o))
January 3rd, 2014
But some of us are back again, and there's loads of you still here after my 18 month break!
January 3rd, 2014
@steampowered Well I'm off now to have a look at your profile, after all it's taken you a year!
January 3rd, 2014
Hi all!!!! I am new here and new to photography with a real camera! I have been taking photos with my iphone, which turn out pretty good, but NOTHING like my semi professional camera my dad got me for Christmas. He is a photographer and so is my best friend. I am loving every moment of it! I am so excited to be here! I am getting so inspired by all the lovely photographs on this site, there are some really talented people here!!!

I love to photograph raw, organic and candid life!! People, flowers, landscape etc! I am starting a project of photographs of tattooed yoga girls and am really excited about that!!!

What are all your favorite things to capture??
January 3rd, 2014
@salza Tee hee! Much good that it might do you! :o))
January 3rd, 2014
Hi All! I'm wandering around in here like a kid in a candy store! I have no idea if this community is made up of 50 or 5000? ;) Funny way for me to start of but my DSLR is temporarily out of reach and I'm using my little Casio point & shoot (3+ years old). Keeping things interesting!

I want to see and learn everything and am very excited to see not only what I do with this project... but what it does with me:)
January 3rd, 2014
@steampowered Ah, I feel like I know you now!!
January 3rd, 2014
@steampowered tsk tsk... I had to giggle.. at the joke. And I too now feel I know you!! Never EVER thought you to be a jokester!! ( the water closet shot still makes me laugh)
January 3rd, 2014
@huvesaker Good idea for even the "oldies" to update their profile. I'm starting my second year and, when I read over my profile from last year, I saw that it didn't give a good picture of who I am now. Also, writing it, I was better able to focus what my goals are for the year.
January 3rd, 2014
done! :)
January 3rd, 2014
sort of new, certainly back after a long enough break that all my old stuff has been archived/deleted - ah well, my fault, should have kept checking in now & again. Good to be back & have now updated my profile info! :)
January 3rd, 2014
Done! :) I love this site already.
January 3rd, 2014
@huvesaker Hi Boo, read the new profile for steampowered. It's content is unusual to say the least.
January 3rd, 2014
Yes - I like a bit of background - much more inclined to follow - just a country of residence is a good start - especially for get pushed challenges - nice to know if they are in winter or summer etc!!….just of to read up on Steampowered!! :0)
January 3rd, 2014
Just filled out my profile! Am looking forward to the adventure. I have nowhere to go but up (and I can't even decipher the instruction book that came with my Canon EOS Rebel T5i Christmas gift). Help!
January 3rd, 2014
Ha! I've been here a year and just realized I never wrote anything! Now I have more than anyone would ever want to know on there! lol
January 3rd, 2014
Ok updated my profile a bit, hope it makes it a bit more personal. I have to say my favorite profile so far has been steampowered...lol...love his sense of humor...
January 3rd, 2014
Will go and fill out now lol x
January 3rd, 2014
Okay...I updated my profile...I know, why didn't upload a photo to add to my profile?!? I know, right...duh...well, I'm at work and the organization frowns on using their systems for photos and music. So, I did a quick profile update because the peer pressure was too great to ignore until tonight. I'll add my photo tonight...gotta go...I hear the boss coming!
January 3rd, 2014
@huvesaker Consider it done!
January 3rd, 2014
Profile pics! Love em
January 3rd, 2014
@steampowered So you're the one that insulted my ex!

I owe you a pint.
January 3rd, 2014
Thanks for the pressure.. I've always disliked trying to write an "about me" thingy, but I went for it. Maybe I'll get more creative one night and have fun with it lol
January 3rd, 2014
@kaesebiscuit Your ex? The lady with thighs so knobbly that she looks like she packs a kilo of walnuts in the legs of her stockings? That ex, or have I insulted someone else now? ;o))
January 3rd, 2014
@steampowered I do hope no one from your village ever comes on 365!
This has prompted me to look at my profile
January 3rd, 2014
@padlock @steampowered @huvesaker - haha Paul - your profile gave me a good laugh. Thank you. :)
January 3rd, 2014
Newbie here. I started posting pictures on January 1st and was lurking a few days before that trying to get a feel for the site. I posted a picture and bio right away. I find that I don't follow people if they don't have a bio posted. I have followed a few established photographers and would like to follow more newbies so we can all see how we've progressed by the end of the year. It's hard to view all the wonderful pictures that get posted in a day so it's nice having this thread to see who some of the newbies are. Thank you for starting it @huvesaker.
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@kaesebiscuit @mikeswaja @annemary @gailmmeek @moxy glad you all joined in, we can't be a real family if we don't know things about each other
January 3rd, 2014
All done :)
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@emmapenny off to have a looksie :-)
January 3rd, 2014
I'm always curious to know where everyone is from. It doesn't even have to be specific but it's nice to know what part of the world someone is from. At least I think so.
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@mittens there happens to be thread here somewhere about that...just added my bit to that one
January 3rd, 2014
@huvesaker Oh, thanks Boo. I didn't see that one.
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@mittens my pleasure
January 3rd, 2014
I might add that this site is addictive! I burnt my toast this morning looking at pictures and typing comments. I even came extremely close in taking a picture of that burnt toast. :-)
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@moxy ooh yes please!
January 3rd, 2014
Sue
Another newbie here. I entered a little under my profile but will now go and enter more. Starting to get the hang of things now and enjoying making new relationships
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@point4sue woo hoo welcome to your new and very informative home
January 3rd, 2014
@huvesaker My profile has always been filled out, with more or less information, depending on how I feel at the time.
January 3rd, 2014
@steampowered The pics of the "lady" in stockings was me, you cad!
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@kaesebiscuit hahaha, I just got a bit bored (three days in) of not seeing any blurb under peoples pictures or anything about themselves...LOL
January 3rd, 2014
I'm in. Now I look like a real boy with a profile and a picture that isn't an expressionless Minecraft head!
January 3rd, 2014
Boo
@chrisburger72 mwah ha ha
January 4th, 2014
Profile added!
January 4th, 2014
updated my profile! Love how chatty everyone is on here and actually communicates...I've browsed other photo sites where nobody seems to actually look at anyone else's profiles...
January 4th, 2014
just added my profile and now to find a profile pic. I'm so excited for this experience!
January 4th, 2014
Another newbie here. I joined January 1st. I started photography around May last year. I will be adding more info on my profile later today. :)
January 4th, 2014
Hi, another Newbie here. I also joined 1st Jan. I have been playing around with photography for a while, no real skill but want to get my camera off auto and start being more adventurous.
January 4th, 2014
Just updated my profile. I'm intrigued by the concept of being involved in the same challenge with others in different climates/parts of the world. I'm actually very interested in being involved in collective challenges with a camera!

And seriously... is there a glossary somewhere to all the acronyms people use here? ;)
January 4th, 2014
@huvesaker See what you have done Boo? Scared the bejasus out of the newbies and made them add profile pics and information :o)). Even I had to add some info but I am not losing my toy Meerkat in a hat picture for anyone (not even you!). If peeps want to see what I look like for real then there are plenty of selfies in my last year project. Then when they have seen my picture they can show their kids and say things like "See? This is what will happen to you if you don't eat your vegetables!" or "This is what happens when you make a face, the wind blows and it sticks like that!"
January 4th, 2014
Boo
@steampowered HAHAHAHAHAHA I never asked for pictures...only info...LOL And I would hate for you to change your picture...hahaha you do make me laugh. Now if you REALLY want me to scare people.....
January 4th, 2014
Boo
@misskenton @breezers @pam_bowry @siotedelapena @deliad @lisatown thanks all :-) And take no notice of the Snapchap, he is harmless and full of wit and very useful info...if you have a problem, find the man himself!
January 4th, 2014
Okay, okay!! I did it, I added stuff about myself. Just so you know, I don't usually add info about me to sites. I have to be dragged kicking and screaming into the light. Well done Sir!
January 4th, 2014
Boo
@kamen088 ooh never been called a sir before...nice to be different! Well done you. Hope you didn't scream too much, got to think of the hearing you know! Well done though :-)
January 4th, 2014
@steampowered you could go down the line of being a Gary Barlow look alike as he loves meerkats too :-)
January 4th, 2014
@misskenton Thanks Debbie. If I knew who Gary Barlow was then I might be tempted to agree.
January 4th, 2014
@steampowered the Gary Barlow from take that band and super judge on the X factor..he sang his recent song in coronation street with the meerkats :-)
January 4th, 2014
@misskenton Thanks Debbie. Can I let you into a little secret? I don't have a television (I threw it out twenty three years ago) so although I am aware of Coronation Street (I remember Ena Sharples!), I wouldn't have a clue as to what an X factor is and whilst my musical tastes stretch from insanely heavy through jazz and blues right into classical and Alte Musick, Take That have as much room as Justin Bieber and Eminem in there (i.e. no room at all) so Mr Barlow is a total unknown to me! Just call me a grumpy old grouch... :o)
January 5th, 2014
@steampowered that explains that then :-)
I'm sure you haven't missed too much from the Cory storyline
You'd easily be able to catch up with it within a week lol
