Wanton Wednesday

Every now and then I toss around the idea of stopping Wanton Wednesday. My reasons in the past were personal and because I was just too busy. But my current reasons are mainly….redundancy. While I always intended Wanton Wednesday to be more inclusive and less restrictive, therefore making it more than just a photo meme, sometimes I wonder if that has harmed it. Perhaps the writers aren’t sure what to comment about on the photographers posts and vice versa? Not sure. But there is a lot of redundancy now; HNT is gone but a few put together “TNH” – it’s not as popular as Sinful Sunday though. There’s Wordless Wednesday, I think. There was Wank Wednesday, for the writers, but I hear that’s been a little dark lately. And the thing is…everybody else does it better than me. I don’t always have the time to visit everyone on the weeks I don’t play (which is more often than not) and I almost never have themes or prompts. If WW went away, there are plenty of other options for doing your thing. Perhaps it is best that there isn’t too much redundancy with these sorts of things….? I don’t have comments on anymore because of the link lists but if you have an opinion on this, feel free to hit me up on twitter (@dangerouslilly).

Speaking of the link lists….I’m using a plugin now instead of LinkyTools. We lose the “like” feature but the links are here on WW and not living at another site. It’s better for you, and more reliable.

Dear players…you may have noticed in recent weeks that when you comment on a WordPress.com blog, you are being asked to log in to WordPress or Gravatar before your comment can get published. If you’d rather not do this when commenting, use/create a secondary blog email address that is not registered with WP or Gravatar. This will bypass the forced login. Of course, this will mean then that the first time you comment on someone’s blog using the new email address your comment will be held for moderation. Blog owners, please be sure to check your held comments!

e[lust] is accepting photo submissions for the May edition now, submissions have a chance at being feature in the sidebar on e[lust] for a month or headlining the edition that is republished on all participants sites! Take a look at the photo submissions page for an idea of what I’m looking for and then submit your favorite pic! NOTE: I’m still looking for a really awesome edition header photo for May, despite the fact that I prefer to have them picked out by now. I look for things that can translate well into B&W (it can be in color, I edit them), photos that are horizontal / landscape orientation, and photos that are artistic and sensual.

Special Edition!: We’ve been doing this Wanton dance for 100 rounds now. Since I like milestones, this is a special edition too. I even got all dressed up! I hope that all our regulars join in the party this week.

Special Editions!: Wanton Wednesday has officially been around for 2 full years! The 100th edition of Wanton Wednesday is 1 week from now (May 2nd) and I think we should do something a little special for it. What does “special” mean? Dress up, get fancy, bring out your favorite sparkly items, etc. It’s a party! Personally I’m wishing I had enough loose, sparkly crystal gemstones that I could arrange them in a big “1 0 0″ on myself, but alas I’ll have to go for something a bit more subdued.

Special Editions!: Wanton Wednesday has officially been around for 2 full years! Since I didn’t give you much notice on this (heck, I wasn’t paying attention personally!) I figured we’ll do something extra special for the 100th edition of it, which is 2 weeks from now (May 2nd). What does “special” mean? Dress up, get fancy, bring out your favorite sparkly items, etc. It’s a party!

2 years ago, our first players included Coy Pink, Aurore (blog is now closed sadly), Curvaceous Dee, piecesofjade, and Hubman played but I couldn’t find the link to his first WW post. While our ranks haven’t exploded into the realm of other weekly photo meme’s from the past, I still think we have a pretty good thing going. So I hope that all our old and new friends join in for these special editions!
