BAM! Already Got One Photo Approved for Yahoo’s Weather App

April 22, 2013

How’s this for a fast turnaround? Less than 24 hours after I submitted a couple dozen photos to Yahoo for possible inclusion in their new weather app, one has already been accepted!

A little after 6:00 pm tonight, I got Flickrmail from Yahoo letting me know that one image I submitted didn’t meet the size requirements — and the fact that they’d already started reviewing my images made me wonder if any were approved.

Sure enough, in the list of “Top Contributors” to the Project Weather group, it says that I have one photo in the group:

yahoo-weather

And when I clicked that “YOU” link, it shows just my image(s) that are in the group:

yahoo-weather-2

That’s a sunset photo from 2008 taken right here in West Richland. Cool! So hopefully someday (soon) I’ll see my own image in the Yahoo Weather app. And hopefully some of the others that I submitted will get picked, too.

    …and why are you surprised? I’m not, nor anyone else that follows your stuff Matt. Your posts (and photos) are the best! Just saying. 🙂
