Photo Sharing Guidelines

Members are encouraged to share photos taken on trips and at local events. The photos can be organized as a web page by the webmaster or a complete  web page can be provided.

If  you would like the webmaster to organize the photos

Send .jpeg or .jpg files from your camera.
Don't worry about size or resolution. Our software will adjust size for web viewing.
Please provide captions for your photos an overal title for the event. The information may be included in the photo files or it may be in a separate email.
If possible, use your computer to rotate the images so that they are upright.
Select photos that you believe will make an attractive album.
See instructions below for sending the photos.

If you have software for creating photo albums and you want to send a complete album

Limit the size of photos to 800x600 pixels. This is about 0.5 Megapixels; much less than your camera produces.
Include captions for each picture. First names with last initials make good captions.
Include a title for the album.
See instructions below for sending photos.
