Craft Forum Flickr Group?

**Hopej** · 27-02-2008 07:50 AM

So I just had a thought, there seems to be a few of us using Flickr now, which got me wondering if we should have a UK Craft Forum group. So we can post our pics too.

I really dont know whats involved in setting up a group and moderating etc, so I dont know if there would be anyone who would be interested in doing it?

Anyway was just a little thought, I know we have Craft Juice which is great but thought it would be good to have Flickr group to?

Any thoughts?

I did think about setting one up a while ago but didn't get round to it. See what Mr M says as it's not tricky to do!

I've been wondering whether to join any Flickr groups that already exist but havent quite got around to finding appropriate ones yet?! Oh I did find one that sounded crafty and joined it but when I looked a bit more, there hadnt seemed to be any posts in weeks so maybe some groups get set up then just end up making themselves redundant if the originators get bored?!

I dont know enough about it yet but it sounds like a good idea

And Incy, your new group and blog look great

I still havent got my head round how you all find time to do so much virtual networking AND feed kids & hubbies AND make anything though?!?!?!?!

OOOOOHH JUST NOTICED I ONLY HAVE 5 MORE POSTS UNTIL I MORPH INTO SOMETHING NEW & EXCITING!!!!!!

I haven't investigated the group thing at flickr.... I guess I haven't had time yet!

I know very little about flickr, is it easy to set up and do people find it useful? Just wondering

My friend, who is a self confessed technophobe, managed to set up a flickr account today and I don't remember it being hard when I did it.

I looked through some groups, and then got scared to join any as I won't have any time left for anything if I did join one!!!! Either that or I'll have to get back to doing my real work!

Most of the groups there are not really written post groups but photo posting one. At least that is the way with the ones I am a member of.Every fews days I go in and check my groups to see if there are any new photos.Then if I like what I see make a comment. You really get some good ideas from the groups. Keep up on whats new in other parts of the world.
