Gallery/Photo Question
Will you be putting in a gallery for the layouts and projects that we work on?

Re: Gallery/Photo Question
Glad you asked...
So here is the debate. We can add a small gallery for a reasonable fee, but it would mean projects would "age out" of the gallery and older stuff would be deleted. So for now I think it might be better if we just use photobucket or similar and then people share their projects here that way.
But if y'all really prefer a gallery and understand that your project will be deleted after 6 months or after a year, then we can set that up for the site.
Thoughts?

How would that work, Bree?
If it's something for a challenge it would obviously go into that challenge thread which sounds like a great idea.
But what's if it's something random? Where would we post if not in the gallery? Would there be a special forum where each member could have their own thread of stuff? I know another site that does that and I think it works pretty well.

I LOVE your idea. I have been trying to work out what to do with everyday projects and I think having a forum with a thread for each member could be a GREAT way to do that.
Re: Gallery/Photo Question
That sounds like a good plan!

Re: Gallery/Photo Question
True!
I just felt like a gallery where things get deleted after a time period seemed weird!

Re: Gallery/Photo Question
I like the idea of posting it in the forums, not specifically in a gallery
however I wanted to post the Christmas cards I made today and wasn't sure where to put them?
you could you make a forum for Challenge photos, Layout photos, Card photos, Etc.
I ended up posting mine in the Saturday crop chat thread because that's where we were discussing the making of Christmas card, please let me know if I should move it elsewhere

I will work on the forum today
And you can always share in more than one place. I saw the cards! Too cute!
Re: Gallery/Photo Question
I started trying to set up the gallery thread area. Not totally sure how this should best work so PLEASE share feedback and we can improve as well go!
Monica if I can see how it works on another site that would be great, or if you have ideas/tips.

Re: Gallery/Photo Question
I think they just have a forum called Gallery or Scrappy Projects or something like that and then each person just started their own thread of stuff within it.
I'll go look again and send you a link.
I haven't seen what you've done here yet though so off to check it out.

Re: Gallery/Photo Question
So I assume y'all will put all your projects in your own gallery thread and then have the choice to also link it up in category threads if you like.
I need to talk to team so we can decide how to handle challenge projects. Most likely I think we will just have you share the project IN the challenge thread.

Re: Gallery/Photo Question
Hmmm... I would think you might want to add new posts to your thread, but I don't know which would work better Alecia! I guess we'll have to experiment and see what seems to work best for everyone!
Re: Gallery/Photo Question
sounds like a plan!
I'm going to see how the others have done it so far right now...

Re: Gallery/Photo Question
Help! I'm trying to set up my gallery thread and add photos but the photos are huge! I have them uploaded to photobucket. the first way I did it didn't work so I'll wait to fix it until I hear about this.
Thanks for the help.

Re: Gallery/Photo Question
I always open my photos in the "paint" application and reduce to 25% and save as a resized version. that is what i upload to photobucket

You can choose to have photobucket automatically resize as you upload (somewhere under options I believe) or manually resize them in photo bucket. Most forums, like here, can handle 600 pixels wide.
