I  need one photo of you (& pet optional) for your "photographers listing" page dimensions 100x100.   Please name the photo your names_thumbnail (example) JaneSmith_thumbnail as jpeg or gif (Here is an example photo)

The minimum photos needed for your flash gallery is 20 and the Max is 100.  If you know how to resize you photos "here is the specifications": 72 resolution and width 600 pixels, name it. example: Sugar_JaneSmith_Sep_09, (if you don't know the date?, just suggests  upload here  

 

# 3 PERSONAL PAGE

We would suggest to explain how you got involved into the animal volunteer program and add anything of interest you wish to share with us. Suggestion- put some pictures on your personal page for flavor and balance. Just send this info to me at thecookie@tampabay.rr.com.  If you have a website or want to promote yourself put this info on your personal page too. Questions? please e-mail Jim McCook  

 
Upload Photos & and text... You can upload two ways:  uploading pages or just send your photos & info by-way of e-mail to thecookie@tampabay.rr.com  If you e-mail please send about 8 photos at a time, (because e-mails sometimes will time out on bigger uploads)  
That's it!, but you have two nice options below too...
FIRST PHOTO COVER  ( Optional )

This is cool, if you love to play with photoshop or one of the other programs, its fun to make your own custom 1st photo cover art.  Just modified your 1st photo art to start your flash gallery, like Shannon's or mine, same size 72 resolution and width 600 pixels, just put the number 1 ahead of the photo name (example)   JaneSmith_cover photo would be 1_JaneSmith_cover_photo  So I know this is your first photo.

 

Music  ( Optional )

Do to possible copy write problems, we can NOT just up load any music out there. However as a courtesy I have purchase 10 instrumental song choices that you may  freely uses for your gallery. Click on the number to listen to each. (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10) If one works let me know the number, if you don't care for any of the selections you are free to look around for some other options, (mp3). I'll be happy to upload a song of your choice, (BUT I MUST HAVE PROOF IT IS A ROYALTY FREE TUNE)  I got these songs from premiumbeat, the costs is $29.00 a track. They have hundreds of fine selections if you don't mind the cost.

 
 UPDATE YOUR GALLERY

I would ask to please save up 10 new photos before sending me new updates. If you have room in your gallery just send them. If you are maxed out (over 100), please request which photos you wish to replace (by photo name). I will update about every 60 days. Send all info & photos to thecookie@tampabay.rr.com

 If you still don't no how to resize, just send your photos and I'll adjust the photos for you (for the first time, but send larger photos)  If you have any problems, e-mail me or request my phone number and I'll try to walk you thru the problem area... Thanks Jim McCook  thecookie@tampabay.rr.com
