For weeks I have been working on new ideas and concepts to provide you with different venues and ideas with the goal in mind to challenge everyone and to make us all better. I have been introducing these on a periodic basis so as not to overwhelm you! “Damned be to he who first cries, hold enough” (How am I doing Jenny?) One of the new galleries I have in mind, which I have been keeping in the wings is called “Member Techniques”

Here is how it would work!

A member submits a photo to the Gallery
They explain the technique they used to create the shot from camera setup to editing.
They explain in as much detail as possible and particularly as exactly as possible how they did it, and the editing software they used.
This could be a lesson, like the ROT lesson in the photo I submitted today (tee hee)
It could be a special application like AndreyG’s B&W layer technique.

The member would submit the photo and describe what and how they did it.
Members would ask questions in the comment section of the Gallery.
Submitting Member would be required to respond to questions and offer advice.
No photos would be submitted other than the original member submission.
There would be no ratings on the photo submitted by the originator.
In their comments reviewing members could elaborate their opinions.
When each submission is closed the rating system could be turned to rate the value of the information.
When submission is closed it would reside in a closed Gallery for further review by existing and new members for reference.

Since I am currently in the process of learning CS2, I have compiled several applications that help me immensely. The links to these, or my descriptions on how to use could be shared by others. The bottom line is that this could be a repository of valuable information designed to help all members in their quest to become better photographers, It would all be in one place!

My quest is to provide our members with a venue to become better photographers! Healthy competition would be come more significant if the playing field were leveled.

Please comment and express your opinion and ideas.

I have been trying to compile a list of links to Websites that might be useful to our Members. Many of these have been communicated via Private Messaging, Forum and emails. Frankly it is overwhelming and too time consuming.

I found a way that you can input a hyper link in the Album comments and members could access directly from there by double clicking, should they have interest.

Would go like this:

Single Album - "Web Links"
Each Comment would be a separate link.
1. Link Name - Hyper link to Website on first line of comment
2. Description of material to be found.
3. Why it is being recommended
4. How it might be used
*********This is Very Important*******
This must be in the words of the user. Must not be plagiarized! No information may be copied and pasted from the Website
The member must attest that they are not involved in any commercial business arrangement with the company they refer, and that they are not receiving monetary compensation, discounted or free software/hardware.

This survey begins August 11, 2007 & ends August 17, 2007. Simply ender Yes or No in the comments. Majority rules!

This survey is closed. There was no consensus and very poor response. This will not be implemented!
