Description
All details on this can be found HERE in $Moonbeam13 's most recent journal.A quick summary;
Count me Out - A Grassroots National Coming Out Day 2010.
What?
"A grassroots social media campaign called "COUNT ME OUT‟, whose goal is for social media users to “donate” their main profile image to include the word OUT or ALLY on National Coming Out Day, Monday October 11th. Participants are welcome and encouraged to utilize the days preceding and following Monday Oct 11th to participate as well. Should they not feel “OUT” or “ALLY” speaks to them as closely as another word of their choice, individuals are welcome to utilize another word or statement. For those participants utilizing Twitter, flickr, YouTube, the hashtag #CountMeOut will also be encouraged."
When?
Official Date: Monday October 11, 2010, continuing through that entire week - but as she has said, let's start now!
Why?
$Moonbeam13 's journal summed this up rather nicely, but as my own side note:
This last week there was a string of suicides. 5 gay men took their lives. Things like Count Me Out are wonderful support mechanisms for people to lean on before or after 'coming out'.
All submission instructions are on $Moonbeam13 's journal entry!

This is me participating!

Wow, those rainbow colours look great!
They are highly contrasted with your expression which is a bit scary, while the rainbow colours look very joyful. Even VERY joyful. (:
I also like the composition. It seems to be your eyes (rageful ones, I'd say), then, lower, your lips (again, rageful) and then there are pearls - contrast again! Pearls look nothing like rageful haha.
It seems a pretty good cause to me. (:

Lol I didn't really mean that! But it's a pretty funny thought, considering all your work and care for others.

I really like how well grouped your colors are. Like, you painted it yourself
so purdy... and slightly frightening.

I know, I ain't either;___;
*sigh* so you know how that is.
Yes. you know, it's not about my connection, but there is something blocking the upload - the tech is probably coming tmr to see what's the problem. But until then..D:

Oh!
Weird, but I went though that a while ago myself, I thought it was the connection but it was an IP conflict ! You should ask about that! Some sites are banned for no reason or filtered and it causes lots of trouble

VelCake In reply to pullingcandy [2010-10-08 23:50:54 +0000 UTC]
Really? oh my.
But still, I tried also uploading something to online sharing sites and using Skype - and both got problems as well on the upload, so I don't knowD:
