Quote of the day: going on an 'image diet'

"I'm thinking of going on an image diet," Frederick Redden, 52, of Stuart, Fla., wrote on a Flickr discussion board, adding that he plans to delete some of the 250 pictures he had put up due to unpopularity. Flickr is a photography Web site where half a million people have plunked 8.2 million pictures since it opened for business last summer.
