Head of marketing Kirsty Kelso said: "We were going through Flickr and there were lots of visitors who had come to the gallery and taken their own photographs, despite signs saying 'no photography allowed'. "We were taken aback by how many people had taken them, but we were secretly quite pleased to see people making their own stories about the gallery." - river. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (HP-UX) iEYEARECAAYFAkuQEGIACgkQIXd7fCuc5vI2awCfZOqAwUPm+CEJgBkR6J2fqY6W N3EAnR9eyx5TvZZpGRXw/HoKG6JoP1C0 =XZ6I -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
