Photos of Road Runners in Action (and
inaction!)
|
|
We keep all our own photos from club events and
races on Flickr.
You can upload your photos to our Flickr photo
site using these basic instructions
How to upload your pictures directly to the ORR
Flickr Website (which is accessed at
http://www.flickr.com/orpingtonroadrunners)
1. Prepare all your photos in your local editor,
correcting for thumbs and wonky angles
2. E-mail them to
lost71hot@photos.flickr.com
Make the TITLE what you want the title of the
photo to be in Flickr - e.g. "2008-06 Orpington
10k" [Flickr takes this and makes it the title
of the photo]
In the BODY of the E-Mail, put (and only put)
the following text, [which will automatically
populate the description area of the photo on
Flickr]:
Photos By: <insert>
Name of Event: <event>
Date: <date>
In Shot(s): <names>
Upload By: <your>
Uploading Multiple Photos
We've found in recent experience that Flickr
takes the first 3 images in any e-mail that
includes multiple photos, then ditches the rest!
So if sending through many many photos (in which
case thankyou!) then send them in batches of
three. Also, try to scrub out the automatic text
that accompanies many exports where it says "you
are about to include X attachments as exported
from Picasa"
Thanks - by following these steps, we'll all be
able to enjoy your photographic memories of
Yellow Shirt events the world over!! Also it
makes our job a lot easier as all we have to do
is classify the photos in the appropriate event!
But it can be of anything vaguely related to
running - we have an 'allsorts' folder for every
year, and we can create new folders as demand
sees fit!!
