How to prepare images for uploading

Currently all images uploaded to the TSS site will be resized to fit within a 480 x 480 box. The original porportions of the image will be retained when it is resized. This means that an image that is 240 x 100 will be resized to 480 x 200. If an image is already 480 pixels in one direction and less than 480 pixels in the other direction then it will not be resized.

Use a good quality scan for your images, either from slide or print, and scan so that the image is at least 480 pixels in one direction.

Crop your images! When you are projecting your images on a big slide screen your piece of sculpture may appear 3 or 4 feet wide.. so space around it is a good thing. However, when it is displayed on a computer monitor the 480 pixel image may only be 4 or 5 inches so it's important to crop a little tighter around your object so that it appears as large and detailed as possible.

Images must be exported from your image editing application as JPEG images. They need to have either a .JPG or .JPEG file extension.

DO NOT put spaces in your filenames!
my_image.jpg is good.
my image.jpg is bad

Name your files uniquely. Each image you upload needs to have a different name.
Please include your last name in the name of your image.
pic123_Smith.jpg    is good.
