Thing 5 - Flickr Fun


My creation, originally uploaded by Lib Gray.

I took this self portrait in December at Barnes & Nobel, not even realizing that the reference sign was behind me...what fate! For this thing, I Warholizer-ed it. What a fun tool!

For using this in libraries, I could really see this tool being used for program promotion. This tool is a lot of fun, and the resulting image can be used for postcards, posters & bookmarks for popular (or young adult) programs.

This kind of tool could be a very fun way to have staff pictures on a l ibrary's website. Each staff member can pick one of these Flickr toys and create the way they want to introduce themselves to their public. A good way to say "See, we're really NOT stuffy!" :)
