Submission

"Smoking is being a slave to tobacco"

I don't think this campaign is shocking but the idea behind it I don't understand. The comparison. Smoking is an addiction. The image refers to sexual abuse.

I've showed it to my 12y old daughter and without me telling her anything she didn't figure it out. I told her it's an anti-smoking campaign and she said 'what does sex have to do with it?'

Neck Traction

"Wrap the comfortable inflatable cushioning around your neck and inflate or deflate to the desired pressure with the attached easy to use hand pump."

Comfortable???????? It looks more like torture to me.

My Parents Were Awesome

Check out this website with photo's from parents. Quite an honor to be on it ... isn't it? Especially the 'were' word.

Kinderboerderij De Werf, Amsterdam

In dutch this time, for a good cause. Please save 'kinderboerderij De Werf'.

"Beste vrienden en collega's...

Een noodoproep namens mijn grote hobby/passie/echte leven - Kinderboerderij de Werf in Amsterdam Watergraafsmeer.
De locale stadsdeel heeft onze verzoek voor een verhoging van de subsidie afgewezen. Dit betekent dat wij een grote gaat hebben in onze budget. We moeten 30.000 euro zien te werven of we moeten sluiten per 1 augustus.
De kinderboerderij is 15 jaar geleden begonnen als een buurtinitiatief en is 7 dagen per week open en gratis! Om aan moderne eisen, zowel wettelijk als social, te voldoen hebben we onlangs geinvesteerd in een nieuwe kantine en de professionele opleiding van twee beheerders. We hebben een duidelijke visie voor de toekomst waarbij meer activiteiten voor en door de buurt en meer educatieve programma's op het agenda staan. Doch met slechts een waarderingsdonatie van de stadsdeel komen wij niet. We zijn daarom deze week begonnen met een sponsoractie waarbij ik ook deze gelegenheid neem om iedereen die ik ken schaamteloos te vragen om een bijdrage.

Ik hoop dat ik iedereen kan bewegen om minimaal E25,- te doneren voor de toekomst van de kinderboerderij. Details zijn in de bijgevoegde folder!

Alvast bedankt!"

Getty Images Introduces Thinkstock: A New Kind Of Image Subscription




A Complete Image Subscription Product Offering Premium Royalty-Free Imagery from Getty Images and Jupiterimages, and User-Generated Images from iStockphoto

Getty Images, Inc., the world’s leading creator and distributor of visual and digital media content, today launches Thinkstock (www.thinkstock.com), a new image subscription product that provides one of the most complete offerings available in the marketplace. Developed for value-conscious creative professionals, Thinkstock is one of the only subscription products to offer this level of quality, simplicity and value all in one place, with world-class legal protection.

“Thinkstock is the new industry-standard in the image subscription business,” said Jonathan Klein, co-founder and CEO of Getty Images. “Thinkstock will change both the reality and customers’ perceptions of image subscriptions. By delivering an affordable and simple offering with excellent legal protection, Thinkstock provides one of the most complete subscriptions available anywhere, with premium, professional and user-generated imagery all in one place.”

Thinkstock offers creative professionals access to a comprehensive collection of imagery that is unmatched in its quality and variety, and provides all file sizes regardless of the subscription package. Thinkstock offers millions of select royalty-free images, vectors and illustrations from the industry’s leading content providers: Getty Images, iStockphoto and Jupiterimages. The collection combines both user-generated content and professionally art-directed images ensuring Thinkstock provides a genuinely diverse range of concepts and subjects with original and creative interpretations. Each week, Thinkstock will add thousands of new, premium images, all of which have been reviewed against the strict legal standards that Getty Images is known for in the industry.

The streamlined Thinkstock subscription plan complete with broad global usage rights, enables customers to begin using their imagery immediately after it is downloaded to their desktops. The monthly or yearly subscription options, priced at $249 and $2499 respectively, grant customers access to the entire library of Thinkstock images with downloads of 25 images per day, up to 750 images per month. Additionally, Thinkstock will soon offer multiple-shot image packs, with prices ranging from $59 - $999, ideal for customers with smaller budgets or who require imagery for a specific project.

Recognizing that today’s customers are working against accelerated deadlines to bring their creative projects to market, Thinkstock’s simple, user-friendly website – powered by Getty Images – makes it easier than ever to find the right image for any project. The site utilizes Getty Images’ proprietary keyword algorithms, with a vocabulary of 140,000 separate terms, to ensure the best image results are delivered, even for complex and conceptual keyword entries.

More than just a convenient way to access imagery in an instant, Thinkstock also provides complimentary legal protection as part of any image pack, monthly or yearly subscription. For any image that is used in compliance with the licensing terms, Thinkstock will protect customers against copyright claims and will defend, and be responsible for, any damages and expenses up to $10,000 for each image downloaded.

Experimental video of an under-development project about:

"Don't you just take the past and lock it in a basement? And then you meet someone special and all you want to do is to toss them the key and say; open up, step inside, but you can't, because it's dark, There are demons and anybody can see how ugly it is"
