Illustrated Sentences

[champagne1982]

From the 30 in 30 thread:

Sedona Sentence​

​

From the 30 in 30 Companion:

..
<snip> tell me the difference between an American sentence and a Sedona sentence?

It needs a photo of the buttes to fit into the sub-category. I'm sure we can come up with a Harlem Sentence, maybe a St Louis sentence? (very bluesy) lol.

..
So, 17 syllables and a pic from whatever location/venue modifies a standard American sentence?! *grinz evilly*

..
Dancing Banana Sentence
Give me your yellow sway and wiggle guaranteed to make me giggle

This could percolate into a week long mini-challenge. Who's in?

Modified American Sentence (mostly Illustrated Poetry, to paint the other 983 words in our stories)

Include an Illustration and an American Sentence ... enter as often as you like... no "talk" thread will be opened since I think every post should be an American Sentence, comments, challenge responses and general kibitzing notwithstanding.

What thinkest thou, the quorum?

Let the frivolity of the American Sentence begin.

Hi champagne,
I read your instructions in illustrated poetry but for one think Literotica allows me only 100 kb seize photos and for another HTML doesn't work in preview to see what I' doing,
I don’t understand where I'm going wrong, can you help (mail me the syntax of your sedona sentence)?
I'm in if this takes off
thanks

Hi pelegrino. The instructions you followed were those on how to submit a story to the main story index here at literotica. To post an illustration on the forum you need to wrap the url of the pic in

 

[champagne1982]

I see what happened here Pelegrino. The image I used was first uploaded to my personal photobucket account, made public, and then I took the URL from there to bring it into the forum. I found it was the best way to use bandwidth and not overburden the literotica servers with my images. photobucket is easy and free for a basic account holder to use. There are basic editing tools there as well that allow you to add text and tinker a bit before you release your images to the world.
I hope that helps.

Wonders what my Photobucket password is

Pretty slick illustrating, Ms. Champie. What font is that? Also did you say you use Photobucket and share from there to get around the size restrictions here? I have a Flickr account I could use. And what do you use for photo-editing effects? Lol, I sound like Roseanne Rosanadana.

I haven't done any illustrated poems in a long time. But I like doing them and I like American Sentences, soooo...

 

[champagne1982]

The font is .... <can't remember shit> LOL I'll look it up. It was in the text box editor right on the photobucket editing toolbar. And yeah, because you're using someone else's bandwidth, the Lit gods have no problem with you linking (notice the difference? not uploading to Lit but linking elsewhere) to a larger image than their limits.

eta: Delius Unicase.. slick huh?

If you'd been here long enough you'd have seen them all before! I just got into my Photobucket

How the hell did you do that???

It seems to have worked
Thank you Champagne!

(I'll have to learn the text editor a little better cause I would like this text in the bottom of the picture)

Where's My Refund?

[HarryHill]

I cant make out all the text, bad color choice, love the pic

 

[pelegrino]

Sorry, Harry, I was trying to get used to the text editor, it really looks bad choice of color and font.

The text was from a poem of mine commenting on Ierapetra's Carnival last Sunday that happened to be 17 syllables:

I'll bet you thought that someone's missing,
where is the Carnival Fair Queen?

 

[UnderYourSpell]

How the hell did you do that???

If I remember rightly it was for something we had to do in Survivor, I painstakingly wrote it out with coloured pencils then some kind soul (CharleyH or Lauren I can't remember which) put it through a programme to tidy it up.
