How are things coming on your project?

Single photos are welcome

Your single photo can be included with others of the same genus, family or species.

Tag it with a common name if you are unsure. Other biologists in the group may add tags to it to classify it more completely.

Single photos add depth and variety to the presentations. So please add your photos even if you have just one of a species. Other group members will make up the remainder of photos.

Thanks for submitting your image. :)

I think it is actually simple but I agree the concept would be confusing to many people because it is the opposite of what would normally happen.

I looked up the Help on this. It seems that adding photos as a discussion is confusing to many people. Not simple.
It appears the simple way to group them is to search images by tag name.

Its clear Hank. I had to think how to best tag the series so they were searchable by others (whether to do individual words i.e. attacus and atlas or "attacus atlas"). Tags would need to be fairly specific to locate the same species in a large pool. For example, searching tag moth would be too general. But I think this would come down to the smarts of your group members.
Is it better to post a series as a discussion with the discussion clearly titled? As you use a series on your weblink, you could add those pictures to the pool. That would also mean others could add images to someone else's species series and it would be easy to see and we would all be notified via group recent changes. This means the discussion section would be the largest part of this group and the pool would be showing the best of what is submitted.

Hi,
Do you think the rules are clear enough?
Have I communicated clearly?
Is the link to the project clear enough?

I want to be transparent in the purpose of this group.
Can I improve in any way?

Hank
