The
Photo Gallery contains albums covering our guild
workshops and events. It is also place where our members
can show off their work. If you are a member of the guild
and would like to post picture(s) of your work to appear
in our Gallery, the directions appear below.

How to send photos to post in the member's gallery
One of
the albums in the gallery is reserved exclusively for the
display of photos of our guild members' work. Your work
can be displayed here too! Here are the steps to get your
photos online:
- The
photo must be in digital format. If you have a
digital camera you are already there. If you have a
print photo, it needs to be scanned into digital
format. (A discussion of how to scan photos is best
covered by contacting your friendly family techie)
Either way, digital camera or scan, you end up with a
computer file that contains the photo image.
Note on image format and size. The ideal image
format for web display is JPEG. If you send the image
file in a different format, it will be converted
before it is put into the gallery album. The ideal
size is under 1meg (around 1,000kb). If the file is
really big, it may never make it through the email.
Email providers often impose limits on the total size
of an email message. If you exceed the limit the
email will may be deleted by your ISP or ours.
- Send
the photos by attaching them to an email message. How
exactly this is done is specific to the email
software that you use. For example, Yahoo mail has an
"attach files" button and Eudora has an
"Attach File" option on the Message menu.
Whatever the option is called in your email program,
once you select to attach a file, you will need to
BROWSE to locate the file on your computer. If you
need help attaching the photo file, get your friendly
family techie to assist you.
Please limit the
number of photos you send to five per member. You can
include a one line description for each photo in the
text of your email.
- Send the email to photos@lastejedoras.org
Periodically,
the photos sent via email will be posted to the gallery
album. This does not happen automatically it requires
human intervention. When the pictures are in the album
you will receive an email telling you it has been
completed.
