Welcome to the first ever lemmy.nz photo challenge! Also the first time I’ve tried anything like this so bear with me while I make it up as I go along. With any luck I’ll find some prompts that’ll fit everyone but definitely chip in if you have ideas or have run forum challenges before.

Rules? Rules! (but not many)

  • It has to be a shot that you’ve taken yourself, I guess. There are posts all over the net sharing other peoples’ efforts but this is more about doing it yourself.
  • No NSFW, since that tends to open all sorts of issues around content control and this is meant to be a bit of fun.

Okay, we’re starting off with a cliche this week, because I’m all for easing into things:

#Prompt for 20/10: Spring

      You can directly upload a photo if it’s less than 5MB if you use a lemmy.nz account. Other instances may have higher or lower limits, or may have even disabled uploads.

      The website has a button to add an image that triggers the upload, apps and alternate frontends may have different ways to do it.

      I’d say that’s your best bet as a starting point. Note that the only way to delete a photo is by using the button that appears when you first upload it. You can’t do it later (in an emergency I can remove images but it’s not exactly easy to do). So if you want that ability then that might play into your decision.

      Other options I have seen are catbox.moe for bigger photos, or uploading to pixelfed, a federated instagram alternative (e.g. at pixelfed.nz).
