i've only been doing artsonia.com this year, but so far, i've
gotten really positive responses from parents and teachers.
i sent out a modified version of the permission slip in
students' "wednesday folders" and only post artwork for kids
who have returned the permission slip. (a lot less work that
way than posting everything!) so far, it took a lot of time
to set up, but now, it's a quick process to post new work.

i think i have $3 in my school's artsonia account; i haven't
discussed with my principal what to do with the money yet.
