I don't know anything about Flickr, but that didn't stop me from making a group called Band Name Mosaic (good name, no?) and adding this image. If you follow that first link and sign-in/-up (grumble grumble), then follow the second link and join the group you'll see one thumbnail of this photo (click it). Now if you roll your mouse over the photo you'll notice a box appear around the blimp; roll your mouse over this and whamo! Led Zeppelin. If you click the "+Add Note" button above the top left of the photo you can draw a box around anything in the photo and add what band-name it represents.

I know signing up for flickr is a pain, so I don't really expect anyone to use this, but I thought it would be a pretty snazzy way of keeping track of how many have been found.

[Caravan Ray]

...and are they Pineapples From The Dawn Of Time? (no, I didn't make that up - Google it)
