PEOPLE SEARCH BETA
If you're looking for a picture with a particular person in it, I'm working
on something to help you out. I'm calling it flickr PEOPLE SEARCH.
That name could be more creative. Anyway, eventually all my pictures will
be tagged with the people in it. So, all you have to do is click the
person (i.e. tag) you're looking for, and it will show you all the pictures that
person is in. Cool, huh? I'm still working on it, thus the "beta."
That, and I've always wanted to call something "beta." There are a few
people in it, so if you want to take a gander, by all means do. Just don't
get too excited. Chances are the person you're looking for isn't there.
Yet.

Go to flickr PEOPLE SEARCH. But, wait! You
may want to read the stuff below first.
The first page you will see will look something like this. You'll want
to click "Show all tags" so you can see everything. Those tags at the top
are the most popular and they will stay at the top and will not mix in with the
less popular tags at the bottom. Kind of like high school.
Now, once you've clicked "Show all tags" you'll see something similar to this
appear. These are all the tags available (remember those popular ones stay
up top). They are formatted lastnamefirstname. For women, be sure to
check maiden names and married names because, frankly, it could be under either.
For all names--if you can't find who you're looking for, check for the first
name first and also for possible misspellings. Hey, people make mistakes.
Not me, but some people.
Click any tag to see all the pictures that person is in. If you're
being adventurous, you can check two or more tags and then at the bottom choose
"all" or "any" and then click "DISPLAY PHOTOS." For example, you could
check "bucklerclaude" and "sports," choose "all" and you will see sports related
pictures with Claude Buckler in them (if you chose "any" you would get all
sports pictures and all pictures with Claude Buckler in them). I
don't recommend being too adventurous at this point though. There just
aren't enough pictures tagged yet for that to be successful very often.
Û This is only an example. If you're
thinking about clicking on it, please don't. You'll just look silly.
If there are any results, you will get some photo thumbnails.
Click those thumbnails for the big version. Once your done, click your
browsers "back" button twice and start over again.
Okay, go give it a try!
