Chuck Posted February 17, 2013 Share #1 Posted February 17, 2013 Two reminders ... The two Completed ship model gallery categories are for photos of completed models only. That's why they are named as such. Second ... you must include the name of your model in the title of your gallery folder! Think about this one, folks -- when people search for a model in the gallery, what search term are they most likely going to use? That's right -- they're going to search for the name of a ship! BTW, you don't have to put your name in the gallery title, since your folder and each of its images is stamped with your username. PLEASE do not post albums of your work in progress! This gallery is meant to display the finished models and not become a second redundant build log. It just wont work!!! Thanks in advance! If you have photos of your models in progress please post them in a build log or other appropriate forum category.

slagoon Posted May 3, 2013 Share #3 Posted May 3, 2013 Ragrove, you need to start by clicking your avatar (in your case the shadow of the person) and go to your profile page Then click "edit my profile" in the top right Then at the top it says "my settings" and under that is a blue banner that has "settings" and "gallery" click on "gallery" If you haven't added a gallery before then you need to add a new album. Once you have done that you can upload by clicking on the little polaroid icon. *Please Remember this gallery is for FINISHED models only, not for in-progress ships* Merriann B and Nirvana 2 Quote ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Sarah Current Build: Krabbenkutter CUX-87 Harriet Lane Fishcutter GO-38 In the Wings: Corel Victory Cross section Completed Build: USS Missouri HMS Bounty's Jolly Boat Peterboro Canoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Bloemendaal Posted October 3, 2017 Share #10 Posted October 3, 2017 Just a quick question for the administrators. My Gallery photo's are up there for over a week now. I expected them to be there for only a few days at most. Is it my job to remove them or do they get bumped off when someone posts a new set. I don't want to take up the space while someone else is waiting in line....

Chuck Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share #11 Posted October 3, 2017 No they are never removed. As you said they will be bumped off when someone post new photos. That banner just shows the latest images uploaded. Your photos will also still remain in the gallery along with the thousands of other photos that have been uploaded over the years after someone new posts new images.

gberger Posted January 29, 2018 Share #12 Posted January 29, 2018 I know you said that the ability to remove posts has been deleted. Does this include removing a single photo from within a posted galley. I had mistakenly added a picture to a completed gallery post I wanted to remove. How can I do this if this function is available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccoyle Posted March 26, 2019 Share #14 Posted March 26, 2019 Hey guys and gals, In recent months we've been having a lot of folks share images to our galleries, for which we are all grateful, but many of those images have not been placed into folders. In that sense, they're kind of like loose photos in a box -- once they get bumped off the first page of unsorted pictures, they'll be somewhere near the bottom of the box, where they'll become increasingly less likely to ever be seen again. Folders help people find your images when they search for specific models. So, create a folder, and remember to put the name of the ship in the folder's title! Thanks!

Chuck Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share #15 Posted March 26, 2019 Indeed.....everyone needs to set up an album for their photos. One album per subject and only include photos of completed models. No under construction pics as they should be posted in build logs. A description of the project is also important.....what kit...MFG or if scratch, based on what plans and built with what types of materials etc. Chuck Nirvana, Obormotov, mtaylor and 1 other 3 1 Quote Chuck Passaro - MSW Admin Sloop Speedwell - POF scratch Block Island Boat - POF scratch HMS Winchelsea - POB scratch build HM Cutter Cheerful - POB scratch build Royal Barge - POF scratch Medway Longboat- POF Scratch SYREN SHIP MODEL COMPANY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSW Posted September 8, 2019 Share #16 Posted September 8, 2019 Folks, we've recently had a rash of people posting images in the build logs sections that rightfully ought to go in the galleries. The operative word in "build logs" is build, i.e. a model under construction. A post in the scratch or kit build log sections that shows only a finished model is not a build log -- that's a photo that needs to go in the gallery. If you're worried that you can't post commentary in the gallery, fear not -- you can. And BTW, a post featuring a finished model and one or two in-progress shots isn't a proper build log, either. So remember, put finished models in the galleries and only post actual build logs in the build logs sections. Thank you!

Gregory Posted June 18, 2020 Share #19 Posted June 18, 2020 Just another little nit pick: It would be nice if modelers would consider renaming their pics before uploading them. Seeing a lot of " 20200504_152930.jpg " & etc. is distracting. In Windows, you can rename a batch of pictures by highlighting all of them, right-click to rename- and give them something short and sweet like " Schooner ", And they will all be named " Schooner(1) , Schooner(2) etc.. Just a thought..

I appologize if I have done wrong, an will try to rectify it as soon as possible! In the menu for creating new topic in gallery there was three options. I realise I should have chosen the «create new album» option, but there was nothing there to inform that «loose» images was wrong.

It's not really so much "wrong" as it is a wasted effort by our members. Loose images are easily overlooked, and if they're not renamed, then they don't show up in search results, e.g. no one searches for "IMG_0001."

Rcboater Bill Posted February 20, 2022 Share #30 Posted February 20, 2022 I know that the Gallery is only for photos, and limits the types of files that can be uploaded. Is there a way to link to an external site for a video? I have a short video (30 -60 seconds long) of my model underway. It is hosted on my (publicly viewable) Smugmug page. I tried to add a link in the description of the album, but it won’t let me- I get an error “There is no image at that URL”.
