I've fallen in love with a photograph

[venta]

Well, back by popular request, it's another...

Photo Challenge.

Details: http://www.eastwick.fsnet.co.uk/photo2.html

Please pass on to anyone else you think might be interested.

You've got two months to faff, find your camera, get it working, take some photos, and shove 'em on a web page somewhere. If anyone is vaguely interested, slightly forgetful, or would for some other reason like me to prod them with sticks intermittently to make them take pictures, please leave a comment below.

surje, if you're still up for suggesting some ideas for displaying/formatting the entries, please shout up. There should, I'd imagine, be less of a requirement to compare different people's photos directly this time, but I'd still be interested to hear if you have any thoughts on how they should be displayed.

And yes, I know some people haven't received their prizes from the last one. This is because I'm faintly crap, and should be resolved in the moderately immediate future. Unless you're nalsa, in which case it won't because you never told me your address :)

Ok. Anyone who wants to enter must email me (email in userinfo). I will then create a sub-folder here. Maximum of 8 pics per folder, maximum of 1 Meg total per folder (so make each picture about 110 Kb, up to you what image size / compression). You can add pics one at a time if you like, or all at once (easiest to add a single zip file if you want to add lots at once). I will monitor content and remove inappropriate ones (i.e. illegal) and ones that do not match the rules.

Blimey, there's efficiency :)

How will the transfer be effected, is it an ftp thing ?

Thanks.

um, you click on "add photos". then it's an http upload. takes individual jpgs or a zip file. if anyone messes around then i'll create user accounts and make it protected, but i think we can trust people to start with.

Er, oh yes. Didn't look closely enough at the page you pointed at. I wouldn't expect logins to be necessary either.

I know some people were obliged, cos of the photo-y stuff they do, to add © statements to their pics, but I'm presuming that can be done via captiony sorts of things ?

[surje.livejournal.com]

ok, i've changed it so that captions can be edited by anybody.

pleasure!

H'ok, I've now updated the page giving the rules to include this bit as well.

And chalked up a couple of pints on my mental tick-slate for you ;)

a favour - could you replace the "@" sign in my email address with " at " ... trying to avoid spam... thanks! :)
