The New-and-Improved: PICTURE-LINKAGE Game! ver. 2.0

Also known as the 'Google-Images Game' or 'Picture Relevance'.....


This is Picture-Linkage 2.0!
(I thought not to revive the old Picture-Linkage, since it has many holes and blank posts in it)


The premise is very simple.
You examine the previous picture shown,
and then you come up with a "link" to the photo,
thereby which you post the linking picture for
another poster to find his/her own "link" to it.




Alright, maybe this game could work again, if there were a basic few rules, though:

    A one or two-word description at the top or in the title is fine.

  • Next, so to make sure that the pictures don't disappear,(which they occasionally do,^look above) sign up for a photobucket account. they are free, and have easy options to show you how to post the photos here.

  • The more interesting the linkage, the better. So be creative in your findings.

  • Finally, have the courtesy to remember not post any children or anyone under 18, AT ALL. We do not want to have this thread shut down because of it.

    Discretionary Hint:
  • Because it much is much simpler to do so, most players like to use only the first page of Google Images Search to find a "linking pic". That is great. But I suppose if you wanted to, you could also use popular photo-sharing websites like Flickr or Webshots as well. If you decide to use the latter, though, you must be sure to recognize the copyrights and restrictions held on certain photos. If you want simple, use GOOGLE. If you want creativity, use FLICKR... but with reason.

I think by following these very basic rules, there would be little room for confusion or doubts about how the game is supposed to flow.
Now that we have that out of the way:

Shall we start?



Hints for Beginners: you could type into google images search, "scream" or "alley" or "grafitti" or "chair" or "annes lane"...
to be creative, you could type "blood-curdling" or "addict distribution"...
