12 June 2009 - Later today we should have our first photo sets live on Flickr. They have been watermarked, converted to low resolution JPEGs and are ready for upload. 75 tags are allowed for each image and we intend to make the best of these. Browsing the Top 100 Tags list on Flickr has given us some ideas.
One collection is of great historical and archaeological interest whereas the other is more light-hearted. The first is a set of photographs of the old crusader castles with notes on their history, taken by Lawrence of Arabia early in his career as an archaeologist. The second is a group of pictures of Charles Foulkes’ pet cats found in his albums. The ‘Foulkes’ Cats’ collection will be uploaded first and compiled as a set, then everything we learn about the system can be used to create the ‘Crusader Castles’ gallery. Fortunately, metadata for each image already exists on Brandworkz so this can be copied over to Flickr.
This is still at an experimental stage so we are all keen to see what kind of response we will get.
