For all you "shutterbugs":

Public Release of Photographs taken in Photo Mode
    Feb 15, 2012

With the coming Gran Turismo 5 update planned for March 2012, we will be starting a new service on gran-turismo.com worldwide, called "Gran Turismo 5 Photo Stream".

In GT5 Photo Stream, photographs taken in the photo mode of Gran Turismo 5 and set to "Share" will be shown in a list on a webpage, and be made possible to view by anyone.

The photographs will continue to change periodically, the online ID's of the photographer will NOT be shown or made public, and there is no evaluation system or the like for the photographs. This is a service which simply introduces what kinds of photographs are being taken in Gran Turismo 5 by players around the world.
Please be aware that any photographs set to "Share" after the start date of this service will be released publically on the web by GT5 Photo Stream.

We hope you'll look forward to the start of this new service.

* Photographs that had been set to "Share with Friends" before the start date of this service will not be shown in GT5 Photo Stream.
* Due to limitations of time and the number of photograph displayable, not all photographs set to "Share" may be shown in GT5 Photo Stream.

Now our pics can be seen by the WORLD! 

This is great news.  Wait, this is a racing game, right?  WTF?

I like pictures, but I don't care a lick about PD adding shit like this to the game when there are plenty of other things they could be working on, like fixing shit they break with each update.  Perhaps instead of giving us an update followed by a message 12 hours later saying something is fucked up, they could spend their time actually testing the shit they come up with before giving it to us.  Fuckers.

in all reality, this new feature probably was done outside of PD, but using some SONY web service group...

the game is not really changing to make this work.

now, I do like the idea of the photostream but it would be better if we could store hundreds if not thousands of files and each have our own gallery to display things...

it sux that we'll be limited to around 5 photos and hopefully photographers with more "cred" so to speak, will be favored over people just posting funny stunts they've done with cars.

hopefully it's quality more than anything else that determines what is shown on the photostream.

AMEN Rick.

Fix the shit you (PD) fuck up every update before you fuck up this update.

I suspect the photos selected will be chosen with some sort of random generator, so I fully expect to see some stupid photos some dumbass kid thinks are hilarious or cool and the rest of us think wtf.

After reading Sniper's comment, I'm warming to the idea a bit more.  Making fun of dumbasses is one of my favorite forms of entertainment.

hopefully we'll be able to comment on and rate them
