About Pro Account Beggars -- Seeking Sponsors (ONE PHOTO ONLY)

Are you a starving artist who could use a pro account? Are you gutsy enough to beg in public? Post ONE PHOTO ONLY, your signature image, to inspire an angel to sponsor you. Your prospects will be better if your profile has a good description of your dreams and aspirations; after all, a picture and 1000 words is better than one or the other. (If you find a sponsor, delete your image, of course. Also, please post a note in the blog so we can congratulate you.) Feel free to forward the group's URL to any of your friends (potential members or sponsors) who might be interested.

Are you a generous art lover? Please consider sponsoring one of our members for a pro account. To sponsor someone, go to YOUR account page. If you don't have a pro account, click the "upgrade to pro account" link at the top, click "buy now", then select the "buy a gift subscription for a friend" link. (I'm not sure how it works if you already have a pro account, but it also starts from your account page.) Before the redesign, members without a pro account had a link on their profile and photo page for sponsors to use; I'm going to find out if that feature can be restored.

Are you a flickr subscriber who already has a pro account but is interested in the group? You may join in order to post discussions. You can include a small image with your post; just don't post to the pool.

When I started this group, I did not have a pro account, but within two days, an angel found me and sponsored me for a pro account. Once I find a job, I will celebrate my first paycheck by sponsoring someone else for a pro account.

Thank you for your interest in this group -- Starman Mike
