Thanks Randa, johno

I have added a couple of bits trying to sort out a portfolio page so will upload more when I have some sorted.

Or, when you’re in the Inspir group, you can click on Invite (right next to where it shows how many members there are). I see you added some work – off to check it out!

Randa this is probably a silly question but where is the invite someone button on Flickr? Thanks

Hi guys,

I would like to join in and contribute too. I can only access Flickr sporadically – the place where I work has it as a forbidden site – and I teach digital design! But I hope to join and add something soon.

Quick work, Randa. I’ve just requested permission to join. Once you accept (I hope ), then I’ll post some work.

Ok, I think my last comment went into moderation because there were two links in there. Since who knows when Tara is back from her holiday, I’ll try again.
Tara- I hope you won’t think I’ve hijacked your idea, but since there was some interest I did go ahead and set up a group on Flickr:
http://flickr.com/groups/inspir/
If everyone thinks the name is goofy, I can easily change it. It’s a public group, but you can only join on approval. I thought that was better suited to our purposes. I added a couple of images just to play around and see how it worked.
The other link I had added in the last comment was about how Flickr can be good for SEO, as they are indexed by Google and Yahoo, so you can always put the keywords you want to rank for in the image description, as well as your URL.
