Gallery Gates: for 25th August
Posted: Sat Aug 11, 2007 3:08 pm
Here's where you can submit your finest screenart for Gallery consideration. (Just click reply on this thread and post your pic!)
TWO ENTRIES PER PERSON (as it's for 2 weeks
) and entries MUST be submitted as clickable thumbnails or links to the SimV uploaded pic only. Gallery judges may enter shots, even their own, but they may not vote for their own. May I recommend that all members of the Gallery Board submit two pics each? The more to choose from the better.... so many great shots to preserve, before they are lost in time, like tears in rain... :)
NEW RULES
The Gallery Gates are open for 2 weeks at a time and close on the second Saturday at 20:00 GMT.
The Gallery panel will make their selections for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place from the submitted pics Sundays by 20:00 GMT and send them by PM to KRIGL.
If there are more than 8 entries there will be a poll on the best 5. Some selection is necessary so the selected get plenty of votes...
If your screenart is selected, it will be posted in our Gallery the following week.
Here's how to make your own clickable thumbnails!
1) Take a big pic... 800 x 600, save it
2) Make a small pic, say 120 x 90 from your big pic, save it.
3) Give each pic a different name, say for example biggie for the big one, and biggiethumb for the small one.
4) Upload both the small and the large pic.
5) Type the following two lines exactly as you see them here into your new thread.
6) See the two question marks in the two rows just above? Replace them with the two names of the pics you just uploaded, biggie in the first line and biggiethumb in the second. The thumbnail sized pic is always in the second line.
7) Hit "post", or "preview" first if you want to make sure it's o.k.
That's it, you've now created and posted your clickable thumbnail! Entries welcome, of your own shot or someone elses!
Cheers
The Gallery Team
