Shoot fires, crashes, and rescues on Long Island? File a short recap and your best photos on LIDD — and send readers to your own site for the full album.

What you get

  • Your name on every story, plus a "Full coverage" link to your website.
  • View counts on your stories, and a shot at the Top contributors board.
  • Your story shared to the LIDD community group with photo and link.
  • Edit, save drafts, or delete your posts anytime.

How it works

  • Create an account and confirm your email.
  • Add your website so readers can find you.
  • Tap File, pick the call type and department, add photos and a short recap.

Ground rules

  • Recaps only — post during or after the incident, never interfere with operations.
  • Only your own photos. No victims' faces, plates, or graphic injuries.
  • Stick to what you saw. You're responsible for accuracy. See the terms and photo rights policy.
