T189 is primarily two components - the web-based course material, and
'Openstudio', the latter being an online photo storage site, where course
members can comment on other course menbers' photos (and are encouraged to
do so). Flickr is the same thing, just bigger, more fully-featured, and not
restricted to OU members, and (if you could encourage sufficient people to
comment) should give you the 'peer review' element that Openstudio does.

Heh - granted, there is a lot of that, but then the OU's site is full of
people saying 'grate pik' to *everything*. By definition most of the
commentors are going to be beginners, most of whom are afraid to give any
constructive criticism.
