Flickr Design/Illustration Groups

spoongraphics · 01-10-2008, 06:49 AM

I've recently been playing around in Flickr and have seen quite a bit of additional traffic to my site from Flickr referrals.

Plus it's nice to get a little feedback on your designs and creations and check out the work of others!

What design/illustration groups are you a member of?

I currently add the odd photo to;
Bittbox User Showcase
PSDTuts User Showcase
GoMedia User Showcase
Design and Illustration

This is a good idea how does it work exactly? I just make a flickr group for say my blog and then link to it on my site so users can add their work?

Yeah it's pretty, simple to create a group, the option is right there in your account menu. Then as you say, link to it from your blog. There may be a plugin available to display the latest Pool entries in Wordpress - PSDTuts seems to do this.

The YouTheDesigner Showcase would be another group I'd join! What groups are you a member of?

I'm actually not a memeber of any flickr groups, but I should join some. I think I will create a group for youthedesigner and see how it works out. Maybe you can help add some initial stuff to the group I'll pm you when It's up!
