"Picture This!" is a weekly 24-hour challenge, meaning that it closes in 24 hrs
“I, I love the colorful clothes she wears … And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair.”
-Good Vibrations by the Beach Boys (1966)
Do you think you can picture this? :)
Usually, you put captions on your photos. Now let’s try the opposite – we give you the caption, and you provide us the photo!
Every week, we’ll be posting a quote, a song lyric, a line from a storybook, or just a random descriptive sentence on the blog. Then it’s your job to browse through your albums to find that ONE perfect picture – yes, just ONE – so choose carefully!
Similar to the round-the-clock rumbles, “Picture This!” is a weekly 24-hour challenge, meaning that it closes in 24 hrs – and the winner with the best photo takes home 10 shiny-pink piggies.
Guidelines
- Upload ONLY ONE PHOTO, please. Size is at least 768px in width or height, as always.
- Please make sure that your photo is relevant to the theme.
- Refer to the FAQ for rumble-related questions!
TIME STARTED 11:00AM Vienna Time

I heart this idea!
in comparison with the monthly mission and the 24h rumble, this new challenge is much more specific in terms of theme and thus a little harder for us to choose a pic that really matches everything described the sentence. it's more interesting! :)

Yes, very good idea, but, above all, great great great idea the competition button in the beta to see all competition in LSI ! Very good !

There seems to be a problem with the gallery. When I enter the site i see anglemort's picture as the first, when I go through the gallery picture #5 is the same as #1, but when I go back to #1 it's suddenly my pic.

@ larslau Thanx for the hint. I'm busy fixing it.

Very cool idea indeed!
My first rumble ever! :D
larslau
I'm a bit confused. Are we supposed to submit a picture which fits the title or could we submit one which fits the lyrics? I see a lot of “I love the colourful clothes she wears and the way the sunlight plays upon her hair”-girls. Can we assume that the people choosing the winners will know the lyrics?

@ larslau
you have to choose a pic that fits the quote, not the whole song, hope that helps,
