Probably worth reading after my initial thoughts comment below. :-)
Is "spad" OK for an abbreviation for a Flickr? It sounds rude? Is that what we want to call this project anyway - School Photo a Day? Any other suggestions for a project name? Worth suggesting common tags I think to make it easier to find stuff. I suggest adding the date in a tag as well as in the title to make it easier to find all the photos taken on a particular day.

I spent ages thinking about this and failed to come up with anything that felt right. Then I thought - just re-arrange the letters we have. What about Photo-A-Day for Schools, i.e. (PADS)? We might even get a logo out of PADS. NotePADS? What do you think?

I agree that a "public by invitation" is probably the best way to go.
I know there was some concern about Flickr being blocked in some places. Does anyone know if email to Flickr is blocked? I ask because it is possible to send photo's by email to Flickr. Schools where Flickr is blocked may therefore be able to send by email and view by RSS feed. Not ideal, but may allow some sense of being in the project despite being blocked from Flickr. I'll try chasing John @ Sandaig up on this... As for the Guidelines, I've made a couple of minor changes. Feel free to edit them out if you don't think they help. Also, would it be worth having another page with a couple of ideas to show what we mean by challenge? Finally, it may be worth having a page to discuss how best to organise taking the pictures. For example, lots of children taking pictures and then selecting the best, or different groups in the school taking pictures, or a rota, or...

Ruby raises an interesting point about dates. I would like to see a slightly longer commitment than a month but everybody's circumstances are different. I like the idea of a monthly "best of". Anyone else in the international crowd want to weigh in here? Clay what about you? Is a minimum two months as kind of an unofficial guide doable? Starting date is Monday Feb. 5

My principal sent me your link and I think this is a great idea! I have played in flickr but might need more guidelines as well.
Keep me posted!
