The sophia inspired challenge. Let's be positive
For at least a frigin week if not the rest of the month. Let's try to be positive. As much as people made fun of the concept, why not help each other for a change. Sure that does not mean free reign for the bullshit artists but this site is becoming a bit negative. Search and respond to positive threads. If giving a critique, state a positive first. If someone states something that is not knowledgeable then help them instead of pounding on them. If dealing with another member try to be forward thinking. I have been using the announement box to not say look at me but look at those who are great to work with. For if someone sees you push up someone else then they see you work in a positive light not a selfish one. Even if they are not on MM. Give them credit. Say thankyou to the great crews that help us create art. If dealing with a moderator do not think of them as the enemy. And we should also take a step back and respect your input and feelings. Sophia stated something tonight. I cannot sleep. No drinking, just the nocturnal vampire in me. Let's take a week or more off from bashing people. I really do not think it is all that hard. Hold back the complaints. But give the truth. Positive first, honest positive, then honest critique if needed for I do not want this site to become a BS festival. Be creative in your approach, be siily, be positive. There is a saying or statement from most successful people that 90 % of your time should be positive outlook and approach on today and tomorrow and only 10 % on the problems and the problems of yesterday. Blah, blah, blah, let's have Mayhem in a positive form. And yes I am going to spam tonight. Because this site needs it. Dec 11 05 11:53 pm Link lovin' u in NY and ''....90 % of your time should be positive outlook and approach on today and tomorrow and only 10 % on the problems and the problems of yesterday. .. awesome reminder, thanks. Dec 12 05 12:11 am Link *GROUP HUG* Dec 12 05 02:39 am Link I tried the yesterday and was not well received with this post on this threadâ¦. https://modelmayhem.com/posts.php?thread_id=20402 I've had this conversation with Sophia in private and any bashing is unwanted drama to me as well as others.

The POSITIVE SPIRIT WEEK sounds like such a great idea upon my return to dreary ohio. Love you all!!!!! Dec 13 05 01:07 pm Link So, one time at band camp.....kidding. I am getting a Canon 20D!!!! Yay!!!! I know it's not the best out there, but it's really all I need and I am really appreciative of who is sending it to me on such short notice. Okay. That's all. Oh! And, I am on IMDB.com..... okay, that's all really. yep, seriously. okay, bye. Dec 13 05 01:20 pm Link I want a copy of Song of the Lesbian Pirates for Christmas. Dec 13 05 02:04 pm Link I am happy. Just doubled my dose of anti-depressants, did 100 edits, and made myself leave the house for a whole 30 minutes to take pics of Chicago in winter. Dec 13 05 04:11 pm Link I'm positive. I'm positive that I have nothing positive (or negative) to say. Edit: I started stealing Lapis' drugs. Oh and they aren't working for you because I substituted a placebo. Dec 13 05 04:35 pm Link hmmmmm. That would be why I have insomnia even after taking handfuls of sleeping pills and washing them down with scotch? In the most positive way possible, of course. Now, on another positive note, I have to call my mother and say hello. yay! Dec 13 05 04:43 pm Link Lapis wrote: I did forget to steal your scotch... hell I am not that mean you can keep it. Dec 13 05 04:47 pm Link I am positive this site works much faster when the portfolio photos are locked.... Dec 13 05 04:47 pm Link Lapis wrote: I am positive you are right. Heck who needs photos on a modelling/photography site. Dec 13 05 04:49 pm Link yeah...go elsewhere with those pesky photos. I'm just here to blab about positively everything. Besides, image compression makes it pretty hard to tell how good the pics are, it just shows which ones are clearly bad. But I am NOT complaining here. Even image compression can be a GOOD thing. Maybe there should be image compression lessons, so people would put up smaller files and then not get them recompressed...but that is beginning to sound like site discussion and complaining. Positively thrilled to be here!!!!!!! Dec 13 05 05:35 pm Link Lapis wrote: I think if we forced people to not upload a file bigger than X size they would have to learn image compression. Then it would be the person uploading the photo who decided the quality of the image. Dec 13 05 05:39 pm Link Lapis wrote: I get to see my mother tomorrow! I saw her last in March. I could have had a child in that kind of time. (But I didn't, which is another positive thing.) Dec 13 05 06:35 pm Link CM Photography wrote: There are photos on this site. Wow, I need to get away from the forums more. Positively I do. Dec 13 05 06:52 pm Link I am positive I made some kick ass edits in the last few days, and I would like to thank the photographers who gave me their work so I could do edits on it. Thanks you guys. I really think most photogs are swell. happy happy. Dec 17 05 04:48 am Link MHana wrote: whats a photo Dec 20 05 01:09 pm Link Greg Rice wrote: don't ask that right now.
