Thanks for the reply.

I agree you can easily search for photos of ducks on sites such as Flickr however I just wanted to create a that members already following this pattern of taking photos of their ducks around the world could use to share with other members following the same idea.

Flickr is filled with millions of members and millions of photos so a member not looking for photos of ducks may still get them as a search result, meaning they wont have any relation to the photo or probably wont have an incentive to comment it, follow the user etc moving them onto another photo instead.

The simple idea that the duck in each photo relates to not only yourself but other members, other photos and the whole site itself. No completely random un-related photos being posted up which members think to themselves "why was this posted?" hopefully you get my point.

Thanks again for the feedback, and I'll be sure to get out of the habit of using CEO too.

Thank you for the reply. I agree once its open the rest of the site can get the feedback needed although right now I'm looking for marketing suggestions etc.

I'm glad you seem to enjoy the sites idea and we welcome you back anytime :)

Thank you for the feedback. I completely understand your judgment on the grammar and I'll try to improve it.

Also I agree the "Share Photos - Be Creative - Be Inspired!" doesn't tell you much so I'll see what else I can come up with.

Thanks again and I hope you come back again soon when the sites open :)

I think 'A Month' sounds more Bold and because of this it seems longer than '30 Days'.

This is like how shopping goes, majority of products are priced 1 penny/cent under the round-up figure for example:

£14.99 instead of £15.00 - The lower number '14' making it sound like its less.

Good question by the way too!
