Flckr

Ok so here I am trying to do this blog for the second time. Do you know that after you write you need to actually post it???? Oh well, so I played around with Flickr and made my own account. I also had created a Picassa account earlier this year do gather photos of the district libraries for a presentation to the board. I like Flickr better. It is easier for me to use. I have posted some stuff about me and my library there.
I have a picture of my son, the starving actor and one of my daughter and her new husband.
By the way, my son is actually in Pirates III. You won't recognise him, he is one of the soldiers in the very beginning. He had to go to Soldier School to learn to march and use the gun. We are very proud.
So back to Flckr. I added some photos of my library for all to see. I don't have a very good picture of myself or I would add it and try to upload it to the blog too.
Here's a question. Can you use any of the public photos on Flickr for something like a yearbook cover? We needed a beach picture for this year's addition and we had a dreadful time finding something that was free. I think I will have to research this.

ARGGGG, I'll be headed to the cinema this weekend to catch some pirates. Good to know there's a librarian's son in the flick!

As for year book covers, if you can't get your son or one of his mates to take a beach shot, you'll want to use a photo that has a Creative Commons License. Enjoy!

I am glad you like Flickr because I have a hard time with it myself! Congrats on your famous son!
