Members SFK Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 My little cousins do them on FB, I'm really not clear. They seem like picture texts where the words are on the actual picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 I don't get it myself. Seems like a site to upload photos and add graphic filters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 You post pictures instead of statuses basically.Your timeline will consist of just pictures. Your new avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 It's a photo sharing website where you add your photos, optionally add color filters to them & then share them universally on social networking sites like Twitter, Facebook, etc. A lot of people use it to just post random, often times "sexy" pictures of themselves in hopes of gaining followers who fawn over them. See: this woman Others, known as Hipsters, use it to simply post stuff like the delicious, awesome meal they have the privilege of eating.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 It's twitter, just for pictures. You can also put "effects" on the pictures and add text captions. You can also post instagram pictures to Twitter and Facebook. Your timeline is made up of just pictures from the people you follow. I love it.

Members AlexElizabeth Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 Yeah, it's basically a picture uploading website (I think pics from your phone?) with filters and stuff. I think it used to be part of twitter but now it's its own thing? I always see people posting pictures of their food on there, lol. I don't understand that. Like, I don't need to see the salad you had for lunch, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 I've only taken pictures of my food when what I was eating was unusual or extraordinary. Like, Andrew Zimmern or Adam Richman, they deserve to post pictures of every meal. (On a related note, I think it's annoying when my fat Facebook friends make status updates about the "Yummy!" healthy dinners they make. It seems so sad and desperate, like they're really trying to convince themselves and the rest of us of something. At least they're trying, I guess.)

Members Cheap21 Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 lol..thanks.

It was purely for my own memories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 If I remember right Facebook bought Instagram and for awhile was going to make it so that people's pictures could be used by anyone, people left the site and they backed off from that. There was a huge backlash against it, even celebs who used it, quit and went to other picture sharing sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted March 2, 2013 Members Share Posted March 2, 2013 I remember that dragonflies, Kim Kar-ian was vocally against it. The whole thing about FB selling your pictures is probably true. Some actors in a play in D.C. spotted one of their cast photos being used in an online spoof article about Lindsay Lohan with Lindsay's face photoshopped onto one of the actors.
