How-to-Use-iNaturalist Postcards

Thats a good point about the novice point of view.

I should mention that for that card I had the LepSociety type audience in mind who (and not meaning to stereotype) may be skewed towards people who have lots of photos on their desktop, lots of identification expertise but maybe have trouble with using the internet. Sort of in line with this Recruiting more identifiers thread or otherwise on-boarding scientists/naturalists who don’t use iNat.

I agree that cards aimed at novices would/should be structured different and that would be a good card too. But I do have to say I’m less worried about novices partially because the Seek app is really geared towards onboarding novices and hopefully ramping them up to iNaturalist (though it remains to be seen how successful that pathway is)
