I don't mind sharing my pictures online, it has given me a place to put all photos without having to worry about all my pics getting lost if my computer crashes. Also, of I'm uncomfortable sharing some of pictures, I can always make them private. Flickr could be used to create all sorts of projects like class collages, photostreams of our class field trips, a mashup of my student's progress...but considering that I am fairly new to Flickr, I haven't had enough time to take advantage of all Flickr has to offer. I am totally addicted, it's so fun and I've learned how to give another photographer credit when or if I use their pictures. I've always wanted a Warhol version of myself, I think it comes from watching the movie Beaches, where Better Midler has some of herself. This picture is me when I found out some bad news, I was pretty stressed.

I love what you did with your photo. Flickr is an amazing image sharing site, and all of it's third-party websites are so much fun to play with. Flickr has so much to offer, I don't think we could possibly play with all of it and still have time to lead our daily lives as educators.
No kidding! I've been saying that the whole time, but it's hard not to get caught up in the fun of it all. Thanks :)
I LOVE your picture. You chose the perfect pic for the Warhol mashup. I tried it, but my picture did not look good at all. I lost the details of my pic. In yours, however, I can still see the details. It looks very dramatic.
I also love the movie Beaches. It was my best friend and my favorite movie in high school. The ironic thing is, she died from cancer after we graduated from our undergrad. So, the movie is even more bittersweet for me now.
