 		<description>The photos in this group will be promoted on the new QueenstownNZ.co.nz website - Queenstown New Zealand's official visitor information site.

We're planning to show your photos on our homepage to begin with and move to use them in an even more refined context in the future (activities, maps, events). We encourage you to tag and/or geo-tag your photos appropriately. 

As an example... if you took an amazing shot of the Winter festivities you could tag it: &amp;quot;Winter Festival&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Opening Ceremony&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Mardi Gras&amp;quot;, etc. And equally helpful, if you could drag it onto the 'Map Organizer', indicating where that photo was taken.

We're not looking to hard sell here either folks -photos of Queenstown do this all by themselves so go easy on the branding as we're likely to reject photos which have been edited i.e to include logos/advertising.

By posting your photos in this group you are giving a permission to display these photos on the QueenstownNZ.co.nz website.

Posting here will be a great way to share your best Queenstown photos with Queenstowners and visitors to our premier four season lake and alpine resort.

Thank you, we look forward to seeing your pics!

QueenstownNZ.co.nz team.</description>

&lt;p&gt;Hi Nick,&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks for your feed-back.  All images pulled through to our website homepage now include a photographer credit that links through to their/your Flickr account.  Our developers sorted this a few months ago so apologies for the slow up-date.&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Yep, sounds like a great suggestion Will. As a professional photographer working in Queenstown lakes area I am only too happy to offer the images for promotion when used with the appropriate credit. It would be greatly appreciated if when images are used, a reference  to the photographer can be displayed. Let me know if your team find this suggestion reasonable. Thanks Nick&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Hi Peter,&lt;br /&gt;
Firstly, we really appreciate you sharing your photography and your comments - and apologies for not getting back to you sooner.&lt;br /&gt;
We're a non-profit organisation working for the promotion of Queenstown. We're not after any commercial gain from your shared images. This Flickr group provides a great revolving showcase of stunning imagery of our region. We do pull this through to a tab on our homepage,  which clicks back to Flickr. The intention is to show peoples' authentic content. We understand the need for commercial photographers to protect their livelihood.  Your photos retain your credit within Flickr,  where one has to go to view them properly. Hopefully we are providing another promotional opportunity for photographers - our website gets 60,000 hits a month. Do you have any suggestions that would improve this system from your perspective? I'll ask our developers about pulling photo credits through with each photo from Flickr.&lt;br /&gt;
Regards,  William&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;I had a look at the queenstownnz.co.nz site and if you click on the Flickr icon under the &amp;quot;Connect with Queenstown&amp;quot;, it shows all the photos from this group with a link to the page on Flickr.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Yes, it bothers me somewhat that the admins of this group are asking me to put my photos in a group with .co in the title, without offering anything other than some exposure. I give my pics free to charities and orgs but if they are using my pics to promote their business and/or make money I would expect at least some guarantee of Attribution. I wonder have the admins read the Creative Commons?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Will the photos posted on queenstownnz.co.nz have any attribution and/or link to the photo on Flickr?&lt;/p&gt;</description>
