I would suggest just using flickr (it is seriously, pretty damn great) and tagging the photos with a tag like "liveaboardlist" or something. It would be easy enough to post the link into the footer of the emails for the liveaboard list by modifying the mailman list (I'm assuming we're using mailman for the list... =] ). Hell, we could even link to an rss feed for the all new photos with the "liveaboardlist" tag which people could subscribe to so they see all the new photos that come in, as they come in.
Simple, easy and no fuss... For instance, here's me on mine in Paris (sans liveaboard tags) from a few years ago... (sadly I'm on the hard these days in London) : http://www.flickr.com/photos/awws/sets/1724023/ just an idea... quite simple to do. We use the same technique for tracking decentralized uptake on protests and actions we are working on with the NGO I work with. Failing that, you might want to think about running a Drupal install if you want to build those sorts of community spaces). The Flickr tag though is *way* easier... =] ciao ! Daryl. PS> The key issue will be picking a service everyone is happy with particularly now Flickr's success is being emulated by other services from yahoo etc... anywho...
