MOPP 2008 INFO & CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS... read more...

This is just a graphic to help illustrate, the idea for the coming exhibition,
add what u think can be organised.

“Never doubt that a small group of committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
Margaret Mead

''Street'' has resonance with many global,
societal changes and challenges.

The new theme, like the others before, has no one definition, program or manifestation. MOPP is social construction and has been up for deconstruction every year with the interaction of the new and old practitioners of the medium. Photography is both an art medium and a mass medium, and it's a number of others.

New Theme: "Home Sweet Street"

The new theme is an investigation on the various interpretations of street photography. The functions can be historical documents, political propaganda, pornography, files for personal memories as works of art, as fact, as metaphor, as poetry -- there is no one interpretation.
Our question to u is ''What is YOURS, What is your opinion on street photography?

Eligibility :
All photographers, worldwide
>Deadline : 25 Jan 2008 >Extension for all (Slaapstadt) - Sleepcity folk
Entry Checklist : Up to 15 photographs .
Please be sure to include title/caption information.
Contact MOPP via e-mail (ghettogether@gmail.com) if you have any questions.

Getting Started

chmac — Sun, 27 Jan 2008 07:18:51 CST

The idea behind a wiki is that anyone can edit anything, any time. So if you see a mistake, or if you want to add some information, you can do that in a few clicks.

Create an account

To get started, firstly, you need to create a WetPaint.com account. You can click here to do that. You'll need to give them some basic information about yourself, but feel free to lie, they don't validate your email address. It would be a good idea to remember what lies you told in case you forget your password and they ask you to confirm your DOB, etc! :)

Login and edit

Once you've created an account, you need to log in.

When you're logged in on the site, you'll see a button at the top of each page which says "EasyEdit". Just click on that button to start editing the page. Easy as pie.

There's a tool bar at the top (a box with lots of buttons) if you want to change fonts, make lists, add links, and all that other fancy stuff.

Save your changes

Once you've finished your edit, click the "Save" button in the toolbar. That will confirm your changes and save them back to the server.

When you click save you'll see a window which lets you add a summary of what you've changed. This helps people to understand how the page has evolved over time.

Basic layout

The screen is split into four major sections.

The header - the bit at the top of the screen with the headings and so on
The left hand column - This is where you find most of the links to navigate around the wiki
The content (central) column - The page content, the edit links, discussion on the page, and so on. The goodness.
The right hand column - Here you'll find links to do stuff to the current page, so add discussion, email the page to people, etc, etc.

Fearless

Above all else, free yourself from fear. All edits can be undone. That's the beauty of a wiki. If you completely break something, two clicks and it's back to the way it was. Easy peasy. So don't worry, go nuts, let your creativity run wild! :)

More help

If you get stuck or you have questions or something isn't working, you can call Callum on 076 886 7647 or skype callum.macdonald. I'm normally online most of the day, so I can probably unbreak something there and then if necessary. :)
