| Caveats for submitting photos to the Revolutionary War Photo Arhives |
|---|
| This site is open to ALL Patriotic Organization to post Photo
Galleries, or Photo Essays. At no cost. For an example of a Photo Gallery, please go to: http://www.ncssar.com/images/GuilfordCourthouse2007/ For an example of a Photo Essay, please go to: http://www.ncssar.com/images/WilliamRDavie250th/WilliamRDavie.html There ARE some caveats: |
| 1. Every photo must have a caption that tells the event
name, where it was held, and when, and the names of as many people as you
can identify |
| 2. Each photo must be clear and sharp, and measure 500
pixels in height or 800 pixels in width (except for large GROUP shots which
may be posted larger) |
| 3. Each gallery or photo essay must have at least 10
but no more than 120 photos. If you have 200 photos, make two separate
galleries. All photos must be be at 72dpi resolution, and cannot exceed
600KB in size - average size should be around 70 to 300KB |
| 4. The subject matter is the Revolutionary War, and
should include only events to which the general public is invited. This is
NOT meant for Board of Manager Meetings or other State Business Meetings |
| 5. This site will also be open to the SR, DAR, CAR,
Order of the Cincinnati, and other Patriotic Organizations. |
| 6. Photo Galleries must be delivered by FTP in a
finished state. Navigation buttons should be provided to move from one
photo to another, or run as a slideshow. I will grant users UserIDs and
Passwords to stage their works, but I control the Menus that will give
general access to the public once I have established that the photo gallery
meets the above criteria. I will work closely with any submitter and offer
any technical expertise needed to get the gallery ready for public viewing,
but it may take a lttle extra work on the part of the submitter. |
| 7. No advertising will be permitted |
| 8.These photos are in the public domain, and may be
downloaded at will by anyone who wishes to use them for non-profitable
reasons |
| As this is a new concept, other rules will evolve as we go along.
This site is not owned, operated, or controlled by the SAR, but will be
governed by the same principles of patriotism and good citizenship with
which you are already familiar. This server is meant for Photo Galleries and Photo Essays only. It is not a place where you can publish your whole website. HOWEVER, you can link to your photos from your own Website, and thus have a more colorful face to present to the public. If you are interested in posting a Photo Gallery or Photo Essay, please contact Bob Yankle at byankle@triad.rr.com. I am the Webmaster and Photo Gallery Coordinator for this new website. |
