After visiting several library websites that are using Flickr I can see it could be fun and informative for the patrons to see which activities had been "posted" by the library and look for their photos or the different events and see how many attended or which programs were on. But... I think it will take a lot of time and dedication to keep the library's page updated and I am not sure who will be assigned that task or if any staff member can post their own programs and images. Does the library will require permission from patrons to post their photographs?
Also, I have to admit that I have tried several of the "image generators" with very frustrating results. Some image generators are hard to figure out, at least for me, and many of our staff computers do not have some of the programs required (Java, Flash 8, etc.), therefore I am unable to finish some projects. I am stressing out a lot with this assignment. I feel that it should be easier for me to figure it out but... no! that is not true in my case.

A lot of this stuff can be very difficult the first time through. Thing 4 can be particularly frustrating for people working from libraries with minimal systems running. Some of this may have to be done from a home computer, or somewhere else. If you continue having problems, please don't hesitate to let me know.
