Photo Gallery Guidelines
How To Submit Your Pictures
FORMATS and Filenames
The following are file formats (extensions)
that are suitable for display on the web: gif, bmp, jpg.
If your photo capture program uses a different extension, there is usually
an option to convert it. Only 3 character extensions are allowed. If your
program assigns the extension JPEG, it must be changed to JPG. Just use the filenames suggested by your camera. Sometimes people go to great effort to identify each photo with the event, renaming every photo. The directory already identifies the event, so you don't need to bother. In the process of changing file names, people often use illegal characters, such as spaces and commas. The easiest and best is to stay with the camera's numbering.
CONTENT
Your photos should be selected so as to
be of interest to all members. Avoid multiple photos of essentially the
same subject. Photo files submitted by members will normally not be edited
so please make sure they do not contain images which could be embarrassing
to others or inappropriate. Also, please check the orientation of the photos, correcting any that were shot with the camera in a vertical alignment.
SUBMITTING
THEM
Please submit your photos on a CD with your name, the event, and the date of the event clearly marked on the CD. Just
drop them off at the FPCSB office.
Photos cannot be linked or copied from
other internet websites.
If you are submitting photos of more than
one event, please make separate folders for each event on the CD.
HOW MANY TO UPLOAD?
Please remember that we are all sharing space on our website server. Try to be reasonable about the number of photos you submit, particularly if they are primarily of you and your family. Thank you very much for sharing in this fun showcase of our activities!
