PF PHOTO CONTEST - Self-portrait (dec 6th-13th)

In summary, the conversation is about a self-portrait photo contest with specific rules and guidelines. Participants are allowed to use a timer or remote shutter release to take the photo, but asking someone else to take the photo is not allowed. The photo must be taken by the participant and not edited or modified in any way, except for resizing and adjusting brightness and contrast. Only one photo per member is allowed and the photo cannot be reused in another contest. The photos must also be appropriate and relevant to the theme.

No, "Me and my camera." was correct. There is an implied "This is..." before it, therefore it is the object of the sentence. "Me" is the objective form, so is correct. "My camera and I" would be used as the subject of a sentence.

It depends.

"a picture of me and camera" is correct, while "a picture of my camera and I" is incorrect.

Rule of thumb for deciding between a subject (I) and an object (me): take the other stuff out (in this case, "my camera"); whichever of "I" or "me" works without the other stuff also works with the other stuff.

The pizza was eaten by Pareesa and me. Pareesa and I ate the pizza.

Classic "Cheers" TV exchange:

Diane -- "Methinks he doth protest too much!"

Woody -- "(smirking) Shouldn't that be 'I thinks' Ms. Chambers?"

Diane -- "Not in your case, Woody."

Furthermore, it should be "Me'll ne'er unnerstand anglish."


I too am attempting to get a pic...It will be VERY unoriginal. Mainly it'll give a more updated pic of me, and something I can use for Myspace (I currently only use my photography, which is a little strange, "Hello picture of a coastline" lol)

Please don't substitute Brad Pitt pictures for your own, that's against contest rules.
It appears to be a photoshop of Pitt and DiCaprio.

Which makes it even more against contest rules.

And had you entered your avatar, assuming it wasn't taken by someone else, it too would not have made the cut because it would have been picture of a partying Barrichello (with a moustache). :biggrin:

If you say so... I am much skinnier than Rubinio.

But the main problem is - this picture was taken by someone else.

My autoportret is slowly brewing. 4 phases out of 5 are ready, it is just waiting for the final touch.

HEY! I didn't break the rules, that IS me. Its nice that you think I look like a movie star but don't accuse me of cheating just because I look like someone else. If you don't believe me I'll take a picture of myself with this thread in the background.

I wondered if that was actually a song, so I googled "lizardiser." You try it. See what you get!
