So, in episode 161, when Frederick Van Johnson mentioned that they had used our PhotowalkIdeas iPhone app to select their photo mission for the week, we were very pleased. The followup from Steve Simon (who we got to meet as part of a great seminar at the RA Photo Club in Ottawa) was also appreciated.

We are going to make some changes to our Word of the Week to align it with the TWIP selections, so we will use the same word and move it Friday. Hopefully, no one will be disturbed by that.

]]>Toronto Photo Walk uses PhotoWalkIdeas.http://www.photowalkideas.com/blog/toronto-photo-walk-uses-photowalkideas.htmlJamie Johnson2010-08-09T23:42:51ZGroups GroupsWe just recently received this email from Paul Henman of TorontoPhotoWalks.ca.

"I finally had a chance to introduce the Toronto Photo Walks group to your app yesterday and it went over really well! I used it to generate 10 "easy" words and shared the list with 30+ people at the start of our photo walk of Graffiti Alley. There was definitely a lot of discussion during the day as people compared their interpretations of the words, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what people post to our Flickr group."

Thanks to Paul and his Toronto crew for using the app, and we hope it spurred some creativity.

There are already over 875 walks organized, with more than 17,000 walkers organized.

A good companion for the day would be the PhotoWalkIdeas iPhone app to help you out stretching your creative vision.

]]>France, Netherlands, Sweden, Turkeyhttp://www.photowalkideas.com/blog/france-netherlands-sweden-turkey.htmlJamie Johnson2010-06-01T18:21:05ZAnother couple of weeks of sales and we now have folks in 11 countries giving PhotoWalkIdeas a try. We are happy about that, though we would love to have some feedback and suggestions for what we can provide in the next update.

]]>Easy, Medium, Hard?http://www.photowalkideas.com/blog/easy-medium-hard.htmlJamie Johnson2010-05-25T21:23:41ZTopicsSo how did we decide what level of difficulty to assign to any of the words in the dictionary?

Well it was more art than science. If we felt you could ‘take’ the photo (i.e. no setup required), then it was easy. 

If you had to ‘make’ a photo, it was medium because some setup might be required.

If you had to really work on the setup, then it was hard.

That does not mean that you can't do a setup for an easy image, however, we hope you can find the images you need. Stretch out the imagination, and have some fun.

PhotoWalkIdeas has been out for a week now, and we have users in 7 countries, and all the feedback we have had is positive.

We are looking for comment and suggestions that can help us make the product better, so fire away with ideas for improvements.

It is also is a little lonely in the Flickr group, so join us with some photos please. This week's word is 'boldly'.

]]>Great Comments From Dave Crosshttp://www.photowalkideas.com/blog/great-comments-from-dave-cross.htmlJamie Johnson2010-05-21T13:29:25ZI go back a long with Dave Cross, back to the days before Photoshop!

When PhotoWalkIdeas was released, we asked Dave from some feedback, and he provided us with great feedback, and some interesting ideas for the next version.

He also provided use with a nice mention in his blog post. Thanks.

At the end of his current Maximum Photoshop tour, Dave will be doing a special presentation at the RA Photo Club in Ottawa.
