I decided to propose today with a brand new photo ipod

I took a picture of my engagement ring and uploaded it to the ipod where my gf will see it!!!

whaaaa?

i'm all for innovative ways of proposing, but believe me, a picture of the ring probably won't get the reaction your hoping for --- even if it is delivered to her on, what i assume is GOING to be, her new iPod

That is by far one of the worse things I have ever heard on this forum. What a terrible and incredibly dorky way to propose.

Forget what some negative posts have said - I hope she says yes, and that you two are very happy. Yeah, it's a bit nerdy. But clearly it's appropriate for you. Best of luck!

That's actually a pretty clever idea. It's certainly not any more "dorky" than skywriting your proposal, or putting it up on the Jumbotron at a football game. I would take revenuee's advice to heart, though: be sure to have the actual ring with you so that as soon as she understands what she's looking at on the iPod, you can hand her the real ring.

Good luck, and let us know how it goes!

If you were in Venezuela she would take the iPod and turn you down for being such geek!

I rather propouse in a taxi rather than a computer store. Why not a shoe store like Al Bundy?

So did you get this idea from Yoak and the responses on this other thread that's been going on?

http://forums.macrumors.com/showthre...hreadid=100371

Regardless of how you got the idea.....

good luck!

People, your innocence is mind shattering. gmail1 is taking the proverbial urine...and for those who still don't get it, he's joking, it's not true.

Might be mildly funny if it didn't cheapen the thoroughly heart warming thread started by yoak So somebody please lock this thread, and bugger off gmail.
