fashionvictim86 Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 Hey guys. I've decided that it's best for me to get a "partner" in helping with the Picture Vault. Especially since a lot of people here have a lot of pictures, and are probably quicker than I am about putting them in the Vault. There are rules though about what pictures go in the Vault. And requirements for who can apply. See below. Requirements- As a rule, the general age for people joining the GDA team is at least 15.- You must be a regular GDC member.- You must be very organized with pictures.- You must know how to navigate around the Picture Vault very well.- Knowledge of how to use Coppermine Photo Gallery is a plus, but not required. You have to be able to be a fast learner to this sytem.- HTML knowledge is not required, but great if you have it. Don't really use it that much though.- You must have MSN/AIM/GoogleTalk to communicate with me easily. Rules- We don't allow any edited pictures in the vault. (Example, ones with words, made for signatures, any photoshop effects other than enhancing the quality)- No very poor quality or very small pictures.- No cropped images so it only has one guy, when the same picture is already in the vault.- Watermarks are sometimes acceptable. When it's not obstructing the picture (like Ross Halfin's watermark), that's fine. When it is in the middle or all over the picture (like Getty for example), then we don't add to the vault.- You must organize pictures according the year or event. If you're not sure of when/where it's from, you could always ask me, or someone here on GDC.- Sometimes you'll come across a picture that's larger or better quality than one that's already in the vault. If you upload, you must delete the older, smaller picture.- Give credit where credit is due! If someone here, for example, posts their pictures from a show, you need to credit them in the vault. - Naked and personal pictures (like ones taken from their family member's websites) are NOT allowed in the vault. That's about it for now. If you think you can handle this, and you would like to join the team, please PM me. When you do, let me know why you think you should be on the GDA team. I'll be on vacation from Thursday till Sunday. I'll pick someone when I return. You can leave questions here.
Lauren Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 I would love to help, but I'd be too afraid that I'm not good enough.
fashionvictim86 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Posted June 23, 2009 I thought Kelsey was in charge of the picture vault.spark in the night is the only user I have on the list from the Admin CP. She hasn't uploaded since Feb.And I'm always in charge of the Picture Vault. Unless of course theres a problem with code then I get pissed off and run to Andres. Cuz I don't know much about this kind of code we use.
Lauren Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 Is there anything I can do to help without being the person described? It's not that I wouldn't want to do it, it's just I'm not sure if I can do a good enough job.I hate pressure. But I still really want to help in any way I can.
Jaymee!! Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 I think I'd like to take a crack at this.I used to be really good with HTML, but I haven't done it regularly in years, but I do catch on quickly.I don't have any experience with Coppermine.But I am quite organized with pretty much everything haha.Plus I already have you on MSN & Facebook

But I still really want to help in any way I can.Despite all the shit I've typed, the vault is pretty laid back.I think I'd like to take a crack at this.I used to be really good with HTML, but I haven't done it regularly in years, but I do catch on quickly.I don't have any experience with Coppermine.But I am quite organized with pretty much everything haha.Plus I already have you on MSN & Facebook Coppermine is really easy to use. It doesn't take much to become an expert on it.
farley drexel hatcher Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 I don't know about this but I have a lot of hq photos that weren't posted in there before if you need them? I know there's a thread for that already but this is quite a lot of photos. And then quite a few others (not hq, but ones that haven't really been released before). It depends if you're really looking to expand the picture vault.
Jaymee!! Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 Coppermine is really easy to use. It doesn't take much to become an expert on it. haha awesomeSo, are you going to be holding auditions or something? hahah

Just let me know why you would to join the team. I usually watch around the forum to see who posts what.
violeta Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 hey i have alot of pics and maybe i can help (i'm very organized too) XD
bass boy Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 i would try, but im too young. i fucking hate my age
farley drexel hatcher Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 Hrmm....I love HQ pictures, so if you maybe can upload them into Photobucket or something?well there's quite a lot, and PB resizes so i'll stick all the ones I have in one big zip folder or something? There may be a few duplicates but there are definitely a few that weren't in there before in HQ. I've got loads of little ones too that aren't all that common, they're all from back when I had my image accounts. Which I miss xD

Then I guess in a zip you can upload them to like megashare or something.
persons Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 i would try but i don't have MSN/AIM/GoogleTalk, i don't have any of those, could i still help even though i don't?
fashionvictim86 Posted June 25, 2009 Author Posted June 25, 2009 i would try but i don't have MSN/AIM/GoogleTalk, i don't have any of those, could i still help even though i don't?It's hard to easily talk to me without those...so that's why that is a requirement. Maybe you could download them?Don't forget to PM me guys if you are interested.
persons Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 It's hard to easily talk to me without those...so that's why that is a requirement. Maybe you could download them?sorry, i can't download them, i tried once and it always blocks features, i don't know if it would be easier for you but it would be easier for me if we pm each other on gdc, but i would like to help because i've got alot of pictures that aren't in the picture vault.
fashionvictim86 Posted June 27, 2009 Author Posted June 27, 2009 Man this is gonna be a hard descision....I'll try to pick someone Sunday when I get home from the beach. I just don't wanna work right now...I'm on vacation!
fashionvictim86 Posted June 29, 2009 Author Posted June 29, 2009 Hey guys...sorry I didn't get on earlier. I was busy all day, driving home from my vacation, and then my bf wanted to see Transformers. I just got home from that, and I'm fucking beat! It's 1 am, and I have work at 9AM tomorrow. So I hope to pick someone tomorrow.

fashionvictim86 Posted June 29, 2009 Author Posted June 29, 2009 Ugh, I didn't even do Nimrod of the Week yet.
Lauren Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Ugh, I didn't even do Nimrod of the Week yet. slacker!EDIT: I was just thinking you should have a made up person that you can use for Nimrod of the Week whenever you don't have time to or forget to do it. That would be awesome. His name could be Fred, and he could have blue hair.
