LA Weekly Lets People Add to Campaign

LAW_BLANKBLANKLY.jpg

The ongoing LA Weekly campaign is dipping its toes into the consumer-generated space with Blank Blankly, a section of their site that allows people to upload an image, add some text and, poof, create an ad similar to the newspaper's campaign that's been running for quite some time. Trouble is, once you've upload your image and make a mistake like we did, it doesn't appear you can edit it after the fact. And adding the copy? Well we gave up in frustration. Of course, it could be that we're just not that smart around here and the promotion is a great one. You decide.

Hey, another discovery! If you mouse over the top of the dealy you can rank the submission... and some other stuff too.

I just love these sites that reward screwing around most of the afternoon.

OK, OK, it will also reveal that I didn't post a dozen and the above posts are unintended duplicity.

:P
