NewDesignWorld.com launch a world first in free image uploading, tagging and blogging.
Users will be able to upload their images on http://www.NewDesignWorld.com/img , and they will be able to add tags / keywords to their images, users can then search of other images with the same tag, also images can be used to send ecards, and registered users can download the images. All images come with urls for hotlinking the images on other websites and forums, all already coded with the bbcode and html respectively.
Also this unique image uploading center allows users to get their images rated.

What are the benefits of image tagging:
Personal Tag Use

A number of people have created many interesting image collections using tags. tags are a great way to display a series of images.

For those of you who aren't familiar with tagging, it's simply the ability to annotate pages, images or other web content with descriptive keywords—you "tag" them with terms that supposedly help more precisely describe the page, in theory making it more "understandable" by search engines.

Tagging is a craze, but it's far from new. Meta tag standards for web pages were introduced way back in 1996, and other metadata standards for information retrieval date back to the 1970s. Considered alone, metadata can be a terrific thing, especially if it's created by a trained information professional using well-defined, standard terms (a "controlled vocabulary" in librarian parlance).

The problem with the web, of course, is that most web authors aren't trained information professionals nor do they use a controlled vocabulary when creating tags. Combine that with the subversive use of metadata by spammers to manipulate search engine rankings, and you know why search engines have virtually ignored metadata since day one.

Despite this unpromising history, tagging has exploded as a "new" way for users to annotate content and ostensibly improve the performance of search tools that take tags into account. Yahoo, in particular, has been a strong proponent of tagging, advocating its use in NewDesignWorld.com
