I am now the coolest kid on my block! But what photos should I take?

Check it out! A little while ago, I received a note saying that I had won a Mahalo gift pack! Today, the mail person dropped off a box of Mahalo goodies for me!

I've taken a few standard product shots above (check out that wicked awesome iPhone case)... but I want to take a few funny and interesting shots of myself and of course my kids using the items to spread around the web.

Do you have any ideas for me? Should I lay my daughter out on the beach with the new towel? Should I chain myself to my desk clenching the Mahalo coffee mug while I work on a Topic Page? Should I dance around like Beyonce in "Single Ladies" wearing the Mahalo hat and black tights?

I'm open to suggestions - I'll take the best photo ideas this weekend!

I love the iPhone case...where's mine? I say you wrap yourself in the towel and put on the hat and sit down at your computer. Have you Mahalo coffee mug beside you and be talking on your Mahalo-case covered iPhone while typing out a question on Mahalo answers. And while I am not sure what the brown flat thing is, it looks like something you could pin on your wall above the computer as a sort of Mahalo nation flag.

But the tights and hats thing might get some YouTube play and thus drive more traffic to Mahalo. Your call. ;)

I like the idea of an all encompassing photo! I'm also trying to think of some ways to get a few pageviews... haven't got anything great yet... even the black tights idea is a little passe.

You could this one only with the Mahalo coffee cup.

I like it! Although, the little critter might have trouble picking up the ceramic cup. It's sorta heavy. Maybe I can recreate this one with a cat? Can cat's pick things up?

I guess it would be difficult to get a squirrel to pick up the mug, but you could have a cat (or a monkey) be drinking out of it. I'm sure there is a cat somewhere that can pick up a coffee mug and drink from it, but the odds of finding it seems unlikely.

your daughter wearing the baseball hat would be really cute.
the beach towel would make a great exotic turban for you

Please no dancing in tights. Howe about a towel shot in the Beach (note I did not say Beaches, inside TO joke people, don't feel bad if you don't get it) . Mahalo hat at the Blue Jays game. Coffee mug at today's Coffee and Code http://www.coffeeandcode.org/. iPhone sock while driving down Yonge Street (just kidding, no texting in the car!)

As for the tights, go to Nathan Philips and see how many people you can get to pose in them.

Oh man, I wish I wasn't tied up... I would have been down to the coffee and code. I'll take the mug to the next meetup in Guelph though, Wayne! Good thinking.

How about a shot of you in the hat holding the mug in front of the library with a caption that says ( If you can't find it here we have the answer ) :)

Whoa! Lucky! How did you get that stuff? Maybe it is a treat for black belts. I would love a Mahalo hat or a t-shirt.

For a pic, how about using as many Mahalo items all at once. That would really get the message across hehe. Or you could take a pic like @demanda did with the beach towel.

Nothing against @robbrown but I don't think his taking a picture like @demanda will result in the same appeal.... just sayin....

I got one as well... so it's not just black belts.

Maybe it's us old timers that have been around for a loooooooong time. :)

Anyway, it's a nice thank you.

@soundboy: Not sure what the credentials are. It may have just been a random draw a while ago, I really don't know.

@soundboy: I don't like your implication that I couldn't pull off a recreation Demanda's photo. So, I'm going to try. Although, even when stretched out, the beach towel won't cover my girth. So, I'm going to have to improvise. I'll send you the results.

"Should I dance around like Beyonce in "Single Ladies" wearing the Mahalo hat and black tights?"

Now I would pay to see that!

Congratulations Rob, you deserve it!
