Encyclopedia of Life - contribute your photos via Flickr

About The Encyclopedia of Life (EOL): "The Encyclopedia of Life is a place for information about all of organisms of the world. Soon, anyone will be able to add pictures and information. Expert curators will ensure quality on our authenticated pages. Together we will make EOL the best, most comprehensive source for biodiversity information. We are committed to providing information for free, with as few restrictions on re-use as possible. We are committed to clearly crediting the sources of the information we serve and urge our visitors to cite and visit the original sources. We have set up an Encyclopedia of Life group at the collaborative photo-sharing site, Flickr . Be sure to scroll down and read the instructions about how to license and tag your images so we can easily index them on our site. Our harvesting program checks the group every night and updates based on additions and changes. It's also important that the images you share through Flickr are your own and NOT images you found elsewhere."
