The Digital Story now has a Member Photo Gallery where you can post up to 5 pictures a week to share and discuss with other virtual camera club members. Participation is simple. We've established a Flickr Public Group to manage the submissions. Once you post an image to the Public Group, it appears on the TDS Member Photo Gallery within 24 hours. It's that easy. Here are the detailed steps.
- Establish a free Flickr account (if you don't have one already).
- Join The Digital Story Public Group. Look for the "join" link on the Public Group page.
- Go back to your flicker home page (by clicking on the "Home" link in the upper left corner).
- Click on "Upload Photos" link and add your images.
- Choose one of the pictures that you've just uploaded that you want to add to The Digital Story Member Gallery, and click on it. This will open it up on a new page where you can add tags and a caption. You can even change the title if you want.
- Once you have everything in order, click on the "Send to Group" link right above the photo. You will see the link to The Digital Story in the popup menu. Select it and you're done!
Within 24 hours, your picture will appear on the Member Photo Gallery page. We'll also use the Flickr Public Group to communicate with each other, such as sending out special notices and alerts.
Visit the TDS Member Photo Gallery to see what your peers are publishing. Feel free to comment on any of the photos by clicking on them (you need to be a Flickr member to comment on these photos).
I'll continue to evolve this page and its functionality. So stay tuned... and start sharing your photos today!

Pulling in content from 
I don't see the Public Group page.
The Flickr public group page is here:

Still stuck on step 2. I don't see any Join link. Nor does a search for join come up with anything on that page. I'm logged in.
I must be missing something because others have joined.
Thanks.
Can someone who has successfully navigated these waters offer Greg some help? We want him to be able to join the Member Gallery :) I'm in-between airports right now, but will look into the process further when I have a few moments.
If you're logged in (the top of every page will have "Signed in as: ..."), you will see the join link on the main group page, not on the pool page... so if you're at the pool page, click on "The Digital Story" up at the top (next to the icon) and that'll take you to the main page... you should see a link on the right about halfway down or so that says "Join This Group?"
Dear Derrick,
I need a few of your serious and exceptional students to take photographs at the Jim Russell Championship Series race this weekend. This would be a great opportunity for a photographer to learn from you in your SJRC course: I've Taken Great Photos: Now What?
Let me know if you can recommend anyone.
Thank you,
Phil Lane
