Möglicherweise hat sich pPIC bei uns noch nicht so weit rumgesprochen, finde ich eine gute Idee, genauso wie Rod's Einsatz, das ganze in die Realität umzusetzen.
Vielleicht mag ja auch der ein oder andere aus dem deutschsprachigen Alpenraum der Welt ein paar Gleitschirmfotos zeigen, daher leite den folgenden Post aus paraglidungforum.com mal weiter...

Hi everyone,
Just a quickie to let you all know that the pPIC "Photo of the Day" website is currently low on PG photos.
If you don't know about it, then let me remind you... it's a website offering a fresh, new PG photo every day and it gets it's photos from you. You simply upload to it.
It operates almost independently, and the only manual intervention is by me once every couple of weeks, I simply have to check that the uploaded images are real PG photos and not spam.
All photos can be downloaded from the calendar archive and used a screen-savers or desktop backgrounds.
Plug-ins are used by other website owners that show the automatically generated thumbnails, so your website can display a new photo every day. It is also approved by Google and can be added as a google gadget to your iGoogle page or any website.
There are a lot of third-party websites from bloggers to main-stream PG dealers who use it on their websites to add a splash of daily changing colour & interest.
This is the first time I've had to ask openly for photos, and I won't be doing it too often. Let's face it, everything has a natural lifespan, and if people don't upload to it, then I'll let it die a natural death. If you want to use it, you've got to upload to it !
To upload a couple of your favourite photos, just go to http://www.paraglidingpic.com/ and use the upload page.
Some rather well-know PG "names" have uploaded to it, and some of the photos that have been uploaded are just stunning, although there are plenty of good quality photos from regular pilots just doing their thing.
Check out the pilot launching with his dog (go to the calendar & look-up 17-March-2008). This is one of my all-time favourite PG photos, kind of captures everything in a single shot for me.
all the best,
(the other)
