Members' Gallery Submissions

Members' Gallery Submissions

The purpose of the Member's Gallery is to show your images in the best possible way. Use care in choosing your images. These images should be some of your best work. You are representing the Focus Group Camera Club, to the world wide web, through your photographs. The following are the guidelines for submitting images for the Member's Gallery:

Submit either 4 images or 8 images. This number of images looks the best on your page. We'll limit the number of images to 8 for now.
Images should be a maximum of 400 pixels in width, at 96 DPI. Length doesn't matter to much, but if it's to long, visitors will have to scroll down to see the entire image.
Images should be sRGB. Use Photoshop or your image editor to convert to this profile. Make sure you "convert to profile" and not "assign profile".
Image file names should be of the format, lastname01.jpg. Use only lower case letters in the file name and the .jpg extension. As an example:
stout01.jpg
stout02.jpg
The way you number your images is the way they will appear on your gallery page. The first row of thumbnails will be #01, #02, #03, #04. The second row of thumbnails will be #05, #06, #07, #08. Also note that image #01 will be used on the Member's Galleries Page as the link to your page.
If you have captions for your images, include a text file or Word file with captions keyed to the file name of your images. In this file, show how you want your name to appear, example: "The Charles Stout Gallery".
Please consider submitting your bio as part of your gallery page. I think it adds to the presentation of your images, to know something about the photographer. If you have a personal web site, this is the place to talk about it.
If you can, create a zip file of all your images, caption file and bio and email to the address on the Contact Us page.
