I hate to beg but... About This Page:

[akleos]

... I noticed that the same photos are being recycled for the PassPorter Photo Pick of the Week. I think that one reason for this is because many PassPorters glide through the photos, but don't rate them. There are a lot of member photos (heck, Cheryl has posted more than 1,200 ) that are really great and that could be picked as photo of the week, but aren't being chosen because they haven't been rated. So I'm asking, begging, pleading, PassPorters to take a little extra time to not just look at the photos in the Member Gallery but rate them as well. Photos that you'd like to see as photo of the week should be rated with 10 stars (or "excellent").

And the best part about it: by sorting through the photos you'll be reminded of your favorite memories at the Happiest Place on Earth!!!

Thanks so much for listening! Now will someone have this soap box removed???

PS. This reminder goes for myself as well! I don't rate as I ought so please don't think I'm excluding myself!!!

Where can I find the member photos where I can vote? I don't even think I know where to look at them and I love looking at photos - almost as much as I love taking them.

You can find the gallery right here: PassPorter Photos - Main Index


Thanks for the reminder, Amy! I don't rate pics as often as I should either.

(Cheryl has over 2000 great photos in the archive now . . . There's over 8000 excellent photos in there from WDW, DL, DCL and such!)

Good idea

Thanks for the reminder

I didn't know until the other day there was a photo gallery but I forgot how to get there. I should go there as there's nothing I like better than looking at pictures of Disney, no matter who took them.

Thanks for the reminder! I wondered how the photos of the day were picked!

[kelleigh1]

Thanks! I did find them after I posted and went searching.

I've voted on a bunch of them. I will say that earning a 10 with me is no easy task. Most of my ratings are around 8. But I've yet to rate anything below 6.


Oh, and where is the "photo of the day?" I think I missed that too.

Yes, I have been busy - I particularly wanted to share the Disneyland Paris and Hong Kong Disneyland ones to give people, who may not yet have had the opportunity to visit those parks, to see what they're like.

Thanks for the timely reminder about ratings - I'm going to make sure I do that in the future when I have a look at everyone else's photos.

I think it's a photo of the week, and there are a few of them all around PassPorter. The first one will be in your newsletter and at the bottom of the photo gallery homepage. I believe, though, that Jennifer and Dave also choose a few other photos: one I can tell you about is the resort photo of the week. You can find those posted directly in the Staying in Style forum. Are there more? Can anyone confirm other weekly photo posts?

...and don't forget to leave comments on them too!
(I like knowing my job as a Photo Archivist isn't going for naught).

Thanks, everybody for rating! It's such a great way to support this community!

Can I ask another question? (I'm full of them today. I apparently don't spend nearly enough time here.)

I'd love to upload some of my photos and I've read the info, but how do I get my pics to the right size. It says they are too small. I normally upload from my camera right to shutterfly so I'm not taking up memory space. I did save it from Shutterfly back to MyDocuments, but when I go through the upload process, it says it too small. Anyone know why and how to fix it? I tried re-sizing but that didn't seem to work.

[akleos]

Rob, you've left the most comments and ratings of anyone else! I'm trying to catch up to you, though!!! Hey - a little friendly competition never hurt!!!

Yes'm.

There is also a Park Photo of the Day/Week in Touring the World: The Parks as well as the Eatery Photo of the Day/Week in Feasting and Snacking: The Eateries.
