Perfect timing with the new year approaching. I imagine people using this to capture a selfie a day, the growth of their newborn, or showcase a new daily routine (e.g. eating healthy, going to the gym, giving to charity). this could be a neat way of presenting some of your photography.

If you're curious about the history of our biggest side-project so far, you can read it here: . If you have any questions about the project, I'll be more than happy to answer.
I'm interested in doing a screenshot a day, but you don't support PNGs. I get the need to use EXIF data from the photo, so is my use case just not one you care to support?

tookapic is about photos only. We don't want it to become "anything-a-day" site.
who says that a screenshot isn't a photo? They present most of what I see in any given day! It's a photo from my reality!

Well, it wasn't taken with a camera, was it? :P I really hope you're messing with me here.
only partially. Screenshots are just photos of our digital environment. If I shot a photo with a camera of a screen and it came out as a JPG with EXIF, that'd be ok, but if I captured the image using the operating system's screenshot tool, that wouldn't. It seems arbitrary. Both produce pixels that, when assembled in a grid, represent an image of our experience. It just seems arbitrary to restrict tookapic to a specific capture device or image file format.
Ahhh yisss I've been waiting for this one for a while. Gonna check it out.
it would be smart to add a "subscribe for more posts". Because I don't use rss, and I don't remember to regularly check your out blog. So I'd love to subscribe.
