A couple days ago I mentioned the Hurricane Katrina relief fund auction at Flickr. I also said that you'd need to be a member of Flickr (or Yahoo!) to comment/bid. No more! The superfantabulous admins of the Hurricane Katrina Relief group have devised a way for non-Flickrazzi's to bid by email!

First, browse the auctions. Then, when you find a photo that takes your fancy, send your email bid to ~~~KRA_05~~~@~~~standardimagination~~~.~~~com (just remove these ~~~ guys from the email address). Here, I'll let the admin explain the process in more detail:

"Be sure to include the following in your subject line "XXXXX:Item title", and include your name and bid amount in the body of the letter.

(of course we've replace XXXXX with the thread number of the auction and replace "item title" with... um... the item's title)"

There you go! So simple...you contribute to relief efforts and get the good feeling of Doing Something to help AND you get a purty picture!
