Ryan is the best to answer that one...he was the one who started
it...ideally, we need a blog or way to generate a blog on ccHost for the
site's main page...we also have http://planet.openclipart.org which we
could just put onto the main page of the site, then you or anyone can
blog clipart of the week on our own blog and it gets picked up...I would
vote for this...is anyone into this idea? I think we need to just chuck
our custom edited news and use our own blogs and the planet for this
great purpose...does this make sense? 

There is also the thought of figuring out a way to do this with ccHost,
but I think the above leverages two great things: our pre-existing
planet and our own blogs...

The 2nd approach has a high barrier for entry, but is cool...

And to your contributions, we are all enthused! I think your help is
most needed on the programming side...of course, this is all up to you
and hopefully is fun!
