1000 Images!
I am pleased to announce that the Sea Turtle Image Library on SEATURTLE.ORG reached a milestone last night. This post, by Hector Barrios-Garrido, was the 1000th image posted to the image library:
In all the image library holds just under 300 MB of images and has received nearly 300,000 visits.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that has contributed photos and other graphics to the image library. It has been a resounding success! Images from the library have been used in everything from other websites, to news publications, magazines, and a wide range of educational initiatives. A few authors have even been compensated by the end-user for the use of their photos.
If you have images that might be of interest to the sea turtle community, please consider submitting them to the Sea Turtle Image Library. The following categories are currently available for posting:
Disease and Pathology
Satellite Tracking
Africa
Species (Hawksbill, Green, Black, Leatherback, Ridley, Loggerhead, Flatback)
Techniques (Measuring, Tagging, Necropsy, Education, Nest Protection, Capture, Rehabilitation)

Additional categories can be added by request or as needed.
