22 Aug 07 - K guys, the group was cool at the beginning (even though it never got much past that)...
But now it just seems like nobody's inviting (never really happened in the beginning anyways) and some people don't really seem to get that this group was just about the pictures seen through the 'Everybody's Photos' section, so it's not where you just throw a bunch of pictures into.

*sigh*
If anybody wants admin or mod powers is free to have them at the moment...

About Needle in a haystack

**After you join this group please describe how you were referred here in this thread"...**

Lemme ask you something... When was the last time you used the "Everyone's Photos" section? seriously...
If it was quite recently, then this group is perfect for you. If you haven't in a while/ever used it, then this group will get you to use it and it will be perfect...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First let me say... Please participate and invite worthy pictures to the group
All right, now let me describe the whole concept of this group...


Every now and then you might go to your Flickr home page and look at the pictures in the "Everyone's Photos" row... You could see one that just grabs your attention and draws you in. This is where the group comes into play...
If you like it, you can leave a comment promoting the group and suggest the person adds the picture to the group. This way we can all see what great pictures can be found at it's earliest stage.

As you can probably tell already, this is how the group gets it's name... due to the rarity of finding a magnificent picture in such a manner.

I personally believe that the concept of this group has potential to become a great thing, and it gives everybody's pictures an equal chance to be recognized...

(the dreaded) LIST OF RULES

1. If your picture is invited to join the group, please post only the picture that was invited, otherwise our group would become very confusing, overpopulated, and it just wouldn't be the same rarity that it already is...

2.. You are allowed to post a picture that comes from a person who calls you a contact, or you call them a contact... Just so long as you actually found their picture in the "everybody's pictures" page ...

3. When you leave a comment on a picture that you saw in this group add a promotion for the group at the end. This raises awareness of the group, which is a good thing... The promotion of the group should look say this
