During an IRC discussion earlier today, Rama suggested we use Flickr to help increase our exposure - per the recent conversation in the "My photo was reused" thread. We discussed the fact that we could upload our Featured Pictures using a Wikimedia Commons account; hopefully people would see these images and ask to use them, thereby increasing the visibility and knowledge of the Commons. Cbrown1023 created the account to ensure nobody else could steal the name, and now we're bringing this idea here to see what the community has to say :) May also be brought up on the village pump if it seems wise. The e-mail address has been temporarily set to info-en(a)wikimedia.org so requests, etc. can be handled there in private; we also thought of requesting an info-commons(a)wikimedia.org address (if one doesn't currently exist?) for such purposes. The fact that requests may be in many different languages as Commons is multilingual (Flickr too) would also be a good reason for not having things sent to info-en but to info-commons directly.
