IMAGE UPLOADING

Since I've put you through my own style of "information overload" over the past 10 days or so, you may have missed the information about uploading your competition entry image.

Go to www.WorldWidePhotoWalk.com, scroll down a bit to the blog section, and you will find the instructions there. You will need your login credentials that you used to register for the walk.

FYI - as of Wednesday 10AM, six Walkers have submitted their image.


Prepping your ONE image for upload:

> Do whatever you need to do for your editing of the actual final image.
> Since your image will only be used for display on a web site, you will save at a lower resolution (meaning the height and width in pixels). A good size to send is a maximum of 1000 pixels on the longest side. PPI settings are not relevant to viewing on screen. Maximum file size is 1 MB
> When saving to JPG. Use a quality of at least 10 (or 80%).

Remember ... the deadline is July 31, 11:59 pm EST.

What happens next? I have the honor of judging a winning image from our group. My deadline for that is August 7, and I will keep everyone informed as to the status. The local winner will receive a Kelby Training book (and they are all excellent books, by the way) plus a chance at winning first place or one of ten honorable mentions when Scott Kelby chooses for the worldwide contest in mid-August.

Remember, even though our Photo Walk is behind us for this year, you still need to go out and shoot lots of pictures - everyday, if you can!
