Twins/MiLB Photo Archive Project

[John Bonnes]

I need your input and (maybe) help. One pie-in-the-sky thing I've been thinking about for years is creating a photo archive for Twins Daily. We have a ton of photographers in our community who take pictures of players, especially minor leaguers. I'd love to create a searchable archive to use both internally and maybe even externally if I can get a team of people willing to contribute and catalog them. 

Ideally, we might be able to do something like add a nominal licensing fee, so it might even pay for itself, or compensate the photographers. Or maybe we provide it for Caretakers and use some of the funds we get from them? Primarily, I just want to create something where it is easy to add and catalogue photos and easy to search and find photos. 

Here's one thing I do know: this is going to take a team of people and some management. So I need your help and input.

1) I'd love any brainstorming or ideas you have around this project that we can kick around below. 

2) Also, if you would like to be involved, either as a photographer or as someone who helps catalog photos, can you you reply below?

Thank you for your interest, and for making Twins Daily a community and resource that is unique among baseball fan-bases.

Thanks,

John
