Spelling with Flickr




Isn't this fun!
There is, it seems a one-letter group at Flickr. It is, therefore, possible to spell things with letter-photos from that group. It can even be automated, which is exactly what Erik Kastner (blog) did with his "Spell with Flickr" online generator. Just type in a word and there it is! Don't like a letter, click for another one.
It's a fun way to waste some time.

I welcome comments -- even dissent -- but I will delete without notice irrelevant, rude, psychotic, or incomprehensible comments, particularly those that I deem homophobic, unless they are amusing. The same goes for commercial comments and trackbacks. Sorry, but it's my blog and my decisions are final.

Brings to mind a fun feature in (I think) Modern Photography a long time ago. Either the '50s or '60s. A photographer went around Manhattan in the course of doing other things, but snapping interesting letters where he found them. Signs of all kinds, store windows, posters, letters printed on the sides of vehicles and such. Letter photos were printed at similar size, grouped into various words, names, etc., photographed and printed again. Some snaps were simply juxtaposed for display.
The Flikr thing makes a neat update.
