Starting now, you can contribute your own photos to ExeterCrew.com and have them appear instantly on the site. Using an implementation of phpFlickr by Dan Coulter, each gallery now grabs photos photos according to tags from the Exeter Crew Flickr pool. This allows you to more easily add your own pictures in addition to all the regular features of Flickr. These includes automatic scaling, license management, comments, prints, EXIF support, and more. Below is an example of photos with the tag “ernestinebayer” referring to the Ernestine Bayer Memorial Flotilla the Academy hosted in the fall of 2006.

Adding your own photos to the above galleries using Flickr is very easy, just follow the instructions.

If you have any questions about using these new features, feel free to send me an email.  Enjoy!
