Flickr Ratatouille - Photoshop Contest [15 entries]
Home » Photoshop Contests » Flickr Ratatouille
For this contest you are ONLY allowed to use legal Flickr images. The goal is quite simple:
Go to Flickr advanced search, type in the search bar two words (they can be whatever you want, but keep it decent), make sure that you've checked the CC option and hit enter.
From the first page with results you pick at least 5 images and make your entry with that. It's all up to you what kind of entry, but of course the more interesting the better. You are only allowed to use the images from that result page. Very important: you have to make a screen shot from the page with the Flickr results and add it in the Step By Step. Good luck!

erikuri: Do we have to post all the pages results or one is enough? (1 year and 295 days ago)
rufkut: This will be interesting! (1 year and 295 days ago)
RayTedwell: interesting idea. At least we know people will have to make new entries for this contest and not recycle old ones! (1 year and 295 days ago)
pearlie: That's a WILD idea, Waz! And simply going to Flickr, then CC, then Attribute is much different than the Advanced Search, then CC. (1 year and 295 days ago)
wazowski: erikuri: the images have to come from the first page that you get as result, so there wont be any pageS
. BTW it would be nice if the used words are also visible in the screenshot (otherwise mention them in the description). For the rest, this contest is mostly to get (new) people to learn how to deal with CC images on Flickr

(1 year and 295 days ago) Ressiv: Great idea! A very open contest in which you can get very creative ideas. (1 year and 295 days ago)
lvstealth: it says at least 5, but we can use more than 5, right? (1 year and 295 days ago)
wazowski: One other thing, you still have to be sure that the images are allowed to use for this contest (according to the rules from PXL), so be careful with what you pick (1 year and 295 days ago)
wazowski: @lvstealth: sure you can use more than 5, as long as you pick at least 5 images

(1 year and 294 days ago) George55: How do I know if the images are allowed to be used in this contest? (1 year and 294 days ago)
erikuri: You have to choice advance search. There you choose "only photos", "Creative Commons" and contents for non-commercial use that can be modified.

(1 year and 294 days ago) erikuri: Ok, Waz. Let's see if I got it... If I'm searching for "flower", the first result pages remains as a screenshot, right? Now, I have to use at least 5 different images (not related) or they can be 5 different flowers? And if they are totally different, do I have to make a screenshot for each one result page? (1 year and 294 days ago)
George55: @ Erikuri: I think you have to show a screenshot of the "first" page. You'll choose the 5 pictures from that page only. (1 year and 294 days ago)
artgirl1935: I just tried my 'two words' and almost everything on the first page is not CC. By going SEVEN more pages I finally found enough allowable sources, but can I use them since they weren't on that 1st page???? (1 year and 294 days ago)
wazowski: Erikuri, see otherwise the first entry as example. In the SBS you see a screenprint from the 1st page with results. Compare it with the link that is placed in the description (it can happen that if you see the page yourself, you wont see all the images from the screenprint, in case you have a smaller screen than the author). But that's basically the idea. Ow, and you can take 5 flowers if you want, but you hàve to type 2 words in the search bar. If you want to know how to get legal sources from Flickr, check here: http://www.pxleyes.com/blog/2009/06/how-and-where-to-find-legal-source-images/. And for the rest make sure that they're original photos and not a source that's made from other images

(1 year and 294 days ago) erikuri: Ok, I think I got it. I used to pick Flickr's images, there's no problem. Thank u...

(1 year and 294 days ago) erikuri: @ Lois: first you enter your two words; when the result page appears you click on advance search beside the word "search". (1 year and 294 days ago)
telmafrancione: I just would like to know if can be foreign words, like French, Portuguese, Italian... can be? (1 year and 293 days ago)
erikuri: @telma: olá, Telma! Welcome to Pxleyes! O meu Flickr está em português, mas costumo fazer minhas pesquisas em inglês mesmo, porque a gama de resultados costuma ser bem maior do que em português.

(1 year and 293 days ago) Lamantine: When I search, I get only 20 images per page, but when I look at the SBS , I see more than 20 images per page, why can't I see more than that ?? (1 year and 293 days ago)
robvdn: @Lamatine, this has to do with your screensize. There's a trick to get more (this works on Firefox) press CTRL - several times when you are on that flickr screen and you'll get the max 60 entries too. This trick makes it fair to all because it gives the same amount of images to everyone. (1 year and 292 days ago)
telmafrancione: Obrigada Euriki... um beijo em você! eu também costumo fazer minhas buscas em Inglês mas achei uma boa série de imagens em Português. Será que posso usar? Alguma proibição quanto a isso? mais beijos agradecidos em você. (1 year and 292 days ago)
telmafrancione: ops! Erikuri ... Erika...rs (1 year and 292 days ago)
jack2: how can i save this page (1 year and 292 days ago)
telmafrancione: with the "print screen" Jack... (1 year and 292 days ago)
erikuri: @telma: pode ser até em chinês!...
Desde que você diga quais as palavras-chave que usou para a pesquisa...

erikuri: Using CTRL and mouse scroll it's possible to get 60 entries on IE as well. I tried and it worked... (1 year and 288 days ago)
