Yep that's right SSD will be once again housing a forum right here for you to share your daily/weekly/monthly photos!

So after having done this in 2009 (only 4 days to go-YAY!) I would definitely suggest that if you're going to do it and you want to scrap all the photos...start thinking about how you're going to do it, what kit(s) you're going to use and get an overall plan for how you're going to make it through the year.

If you did it before...let us know what kept you motivated.

We'll be setting up the forum for 2010 soon so get your cameras ready for 1/1/10!
 
I REALLY want to try and stick with this for 2010. I think I'm going to give myself a new photography challenge every month, so I can work on my skillz and stay motivated.
 
bah I'm gonna try this year...I really want a theme..I like the mugshot 365 idea..so I might try that.
 
I really want to go buy some Lego figures and do a month with them. Freaking coolest 365 I saw, was a guy made a little scene for various lego characters every day, lol. SO FUN!
 
I am going to do it this year...2009 was kinda tough since I was deployed until July...but what is this Mugshot thing you speak of Traci???? That might be something fun to do with my kids!!!

I saw one where the person had a theme every month...of course I can't remember where I saw it now.

Like February was a picture about Loves everyday...each day something new that she loved.

Maybe picking a theme like that every month would help.
 
I'm in again.

I am not up to date on my layouts, but I have been working on getting caught up and will finish my book!

One thing I didn't do so well this year, was to maintain my journal and I would like to do that for 2010.

I have a planner ready to go to detail the notes of why I chose the picture I did for the day --- so that if I get behind on scrapping, I will remember the details LOL.
 
Tracy that is such I good idea!!! maybe I will try to come up with something like that for every month and that will give me a little motivation!
 
I'm going to do one photo a week this year. I think it's more realistic for me and our family. Maybe a theme each month would make it even easier??? Hmm...good idea!

I bet the Lego people rocked! Where did you see that? I'd like to take a look.
 
I am really going to give it a try this year.

I want to know some themes and ideas though. I know I will easily get discouraged or bored.
Maybe we could do a "photo prompt" for each month or week or something?

We're already thinking about this and will have something to help everyone along the way :)
 
LOVE the Lego idea and think I might do this with my DS's matchbox cars!! I KNOW he has at least 365!!!!!!!!
 
I really want to complete this, finally this year! I've started twice, but stopped part way through the year. I gave my oldest son a small point & shoot camera for Christmas, he's asked for the cash value instead - I'm wondering if my husband will notice if I don't really take it back. Its hard to take a discrete picture with the Rebel!
 
I did SO well the first part of the year (took a pic or more a day even) but when life got crazy, it went to the back burner. :( Going to try to finish it somehow but I know it won't be as great as I planned.

My Jan-June book is awesome, so I may try to finish off the July-Dec by regular layouts in the back that I've done this year to fill it out.

I think sticking to a kit or theme per month would help a lot too...can't wait to see what SSD has in store to keep us motiviated!
 
I haven't decided yet if I'm going to scrap my pictures as well. I will probably give it a try so I can do the challenges, Project 365 and I really want to start a Book of Me this year too.

*Praying that God will give me the strength to do all of these*

Book of Me is pretty easy to do though. And I bet it'll be even easier this year. ;)
 
I'm doing it again this year. I've got about a dozen things to take a photo of every month like sunset, the kitchen sink, my to be read book pile, lunch (I suck at making lunch), a self-portrait, the dinos & clone troopers. I find having specific items helps when I realize it's 10p & I haven't got a photo. It's ok to then take a photo of the book pile or my pantry at the last minute because I am taking one of those every month any way. :)

I had a theme last year with the boys' play & that worked really well. This year I am just winging it & it's a little too random for me, though I have kept up with it

Good ideas! I like the idea of pre-planning at least part of every month. I know my intention last year was to take a picture of the gas prices once a month and such, but I ended up very random. I do better with structure!

speaking of, why are my little icons not so little anymore! Did someone water them? :-)
 
I'm doing the My Lifetime Challenge at Faith Sisters as well. They have some great prompts lined up to help do a book about yourself.

I have no problem with taking the pictures - but I have no ability to follow through scrapping the same way week after week...

I couldn't even finish my December daily album. Three pages match and were pretty quick, then I got bored following my own 'template' and so I punted. Now I have two more pages done, but obviously I'm way behind!!

I'm "iffy"...but will be interested to see the forums here and maybe I'll be inspired!
 
I plan on doing P365, but still trying to come up with a theme... or several themes... I was thinking something along the lines of mugshot but I want to take other pics besides my face like my chucks or things about me... but then again... my kids are still really young so it would be fun to watch them grow up this year in photos too. I won't have such a crazy year this year so hopefully I will be able to make it through this year.

Does anyone who has done P365 in the past keep up with it on their blogs too?

A lot of people use their blogs. I bet if you googled it, there would be a BOATLOAD of results, lol.

I am AWFUL at getting the pictures off my card every day. So personally, I plan to do it once a week, whenever I get a chance. I can then blog those if I feel so inclined.
 
Ugh. I WANT to do this. I really do. But.. I suck at the actual followthrough. I am going to try again though!
 
I am defenitely going to do the daily photos...not sure I will upload everyday though. Typically I upload about two or three times a month. I am going to brainstorm some ideas for each month and come up with a theme for myself
