Want to contribute your best photographs from a single dedicated May 5th Flickr upload day? Check-out 24 hours of Flickr.

It’s coming! 24 Hours of Flickr: A global Flickr community event

What happens around the world in one day? In a word – life. Here on Flickr, our members are sharing the world that they see: snapping daily moments, recording history, telling stories, capturing beauty.

To celebrate this global community, we invite you to join us in 24 Hours of Flickr, a day-long global photo project. On May 5 2007, grab your camera and whatever else you need, and chronicle your day in pictures.

Join the 24 Hours of Flickr group to get ready for the big day. After the big day, post your best photo to the group. We’d love to see the group photos on a map as well, so make sure you add your photos to the map using the Organizr.

Remember! We want the photos here to illustrate one day in the life of the Flickr community — May 5, 2007 — so, you can only submit a photo taken on May 5. (You’ll have until May 21 to add your photo.)

I’m not really sure if I fully understand the point of having a 24 hours of Flickr on May 5 if users have until May 21st to add photos? Am I missing something?

    They’re just allowing people more time to upload their shots. The photos have to have been taken on 5th May.

    Yeah, cos the bandwidth usage on the day would kill them.

    And you can upload only one picture to the group.
