Can you post a simple way to take a picture of a coral you want to submit and then go thru how to get it submitted on the page. I have not tried, but i think at one time i found it hard to get pictures up onto here in such a manner.. I'm sure there is an easy way. There is about 30 frags here i want to photograph and summit but I'm over whelmed with how to best do it. thanks
I can use a iPhone, Go pro, or a normal under water digital camera. i'm Not worried about picture quality. just what are my restrictions format n size wise n all that so i can do it fast n simple.
Thanks.
I re size all pics to 1024 x 767 this seems to work well and save as jpg
I have no idea how to do that in the next 24 hours for 30 some pictures.. thats sort of what I'm getting at.. I'm maybe not that handy when it comes to doing the picture thing. But i did spend a half hour testing my tank parameters this morning.. lolQuote:

Very simple process. The hardest part is making sure you bag the correct coral with the corresponding number assigned.Quote:

Took two hours or so to do 22 of them. I'll have to do the rest later. I made my self a list to bag n number from Thanks good advice.
The image needs to be in png, jpg or gif format, the resolution of the image doesn't really matter, however the size of the image file cannot be more than 1.5Mb. The higher the resolution the higher the size of the file.Quote:

2. What time is the event? I saw the address and date, but it didn't list a time.
Thanks!
I couldn't differentiate between the two personally when i looked.. buyer be ware.. lol.. Its very possible.. usually, there is no claim other than a best effort to identify them.
6:00 PM auction will probably start at about 7. There is a ORCA board meeting at 4 before the usual club meeting this time.
Raffle will be at the end of the meeting. There is an awesome JBJ dual 1600 gallon per hour wave maker kit in the raffle as well as some great Fragging related items among other things.
Also i have a few more Frags to photo and add in the morning that i picked up that were donated/ discounted from the last of the five main fish stores in town. I dipped them this evening and will photo them in the morning before i bag them all up for the auction. Thanks everyone, there are some great pieces in this event.. many worth over 50$ in the stores.. should be a great event..
Does anyone need any cheato? I can bring it to the meeting if so. I have about (3) 1-gallon zip lock bags full I'll be throwing away if not. Text me 978-395-162zero.
