Sorry, don't mean to sound snobby, and there are lots of nicer cars out there too, but I primarily look at IG for inspiration/ ideas for my own car. I follow The Rock, a few friends and then the rest are pretty much e92s and similar.

What's yours? Lemme see

I was just messing with you.

My IG has a bunch of different types of photos. I prefer a variety of photos. I prefer people and experiences over solitary objects. Many people only have one type of photo on their page and it becomes a bit bland. How many different angles and backgrounds do I care to look at the same car in front of?

People will be able to see who you are as a person. I like Snapchat stories way more than IG. Snapchat gives you a more authentic look into someone's life as everything is not as orchestrated. More real and raw.

bimmette for how much you love your car you at least try to spice it up with other things as well. surfing, food, ballet, etc...

I was reading your response and was like... I did include those activities in the post, haha.

I learned snapchat from my 46 year old friend. I think there is a generation that believe it is only used for nasty photos, however, it's quite the opposite, I think.

If you aren't on it check it out if you can to peer into people's real lives.

I've looked at snapchat and still think it's dumb. Although I said that about Instagram about a year ago and here I am taking stupid pics of me and my car

lol.....paraphrased, you sound a little voyeuristic. I'll save the rest of my post for the 'post what you think members look like' thread.

Question: since there is overlap w/ things like Flickr, what's the point of instagram? I'm not on the later, but someone suggested it to me since I have a Flickr.

I never got into flickr. Instagram is an easy way to see new photos, find new posts, follow people etc. Very user friendly. I'd suggest you check it out if you like flickr at all.

voyeur? Only in the positive meanings/connotations of the word, haha. I am very much into knowing how others live their lives though. There are frugality forums where they are a 100% open book. It's pretty crazy.


edit: after looking through your flickr (nice photos btw) flickr for you seems to be more of showcasing your photography skills. Instagram is an in between flickr and snapchat for that authentic real life piece that isn't beautifully orchestrated.

I meant that only in the nicest way. lol I was just kidding anyways. I will say, though, that a google image search for 'voyeur' went south far faster than I expected....like immediately. 'peeping tom' is the safer search term.

The current UI (UX, if you prefer) is a bit odd to me vice the former layout on Flickr. Thanks for the kind words on my pix, though. I am a rookie at best and clearly my dog Tobi has dominating my uploads for a while.
