We're going to experiment with a new regular item here on the Serious Compacts blog. From time to time, the blog will feature one of the excellent photos from the SeriousCompacts.com Flickr Group. To learn more about the group and how to add photos to it, see this post. If you're wondering whether your camera is "serious" enough or "compact" enough to join the group, then wonder no more. It is ;-).

Interested? Here's the thing: In order for us to share your work, we need your permission to do so. There are two ways you can grant this. The easiest way is to change the permissions on your photo in from "All Rights Reserved" to one of the Creative Commons licenses. Click here for more information about using Creative Commons licensing on Flickr. If you want to maintain all rights reserved and still want to give us special permission to publish your photo on the blog, then add the tag "ptposc" (Permission to Publish on Serious Compacts) to your Flickr image. We won't alter your work in any way, and of course we'll credit you along with a link back to your Flickr page.

Featured images from our Flickr group will be available, alongside featured artists from the "outside" world, by clicking on the "Featured" tab in the menu at the top of the blog. I don't know how often or how long we'll continue this feature. It depends on the interest we get. Any of the blog contributors can feature your work from the pool at any time. Just remember to give us permission!
