Theme Day: Post Boxes of the World

Singapore Post has a contest that lets people paint the local post boxes. It's a post box makeover.
I happen to catch these girls in action a few weeks ago, when they were suppose to be paiting them during their allocated timing.

What a coincidence with the Daily Photo Theme Day!

Guess what, the voting for your favourite post box starts tomorrow! If you are interested to see more of the quirky post box in Singapore, visit http://www.stamp.sg/




If you have enough of Singapore public Mail Box, visit others around the world!
The following Daily Photo sites are also participating in the 1st April Theme Day.

Due to time zone differences and other factors, the theme photo may not be displayed until later if you are viewing early in the day.

    Fantastic coincidence! So much so that I thought you might have made it up as an April Fool joke with a little help from our friend Photoshop !
    FANTASTIC ENTRY!

    Too cool. This was very convent for the theme day. The world gets to see your photo and Singapore has bright new mailboxes. Much better then Red or Blue.

    Great idea, i think it could be a good idea in France where all public mailboxes are yellow and boring! Bon dimanche!

    What an excellent idea and way to be so original on theme day. I hope you told the people painting to look for themselves on your blog. They will be very proud I am sure.

    How fantastic is that! I love some of the designs. Do they wash it off later, or do the designs stay until next year?
