+Photos are stored in the general file area of the site under http://expo.survex.com/expoimages/photos/ They are organised by year, and by photographer. Please use directory names like 2014/JuliaDay (i.e no spaces, CamelCase for names).
+
+They are viewed at http://expo.survex.com/photos/
+
+Photos can be uploaded in various ways:
+
+
Rsync or scp as user 'expo' to expo.survex.com, into the directory expoimages/photos/<year>/<PhotographerName>
+
Webdav upload to http://expo.su\
+rvex.com/expoimages/uploads/<year>/<PhotographerName>
+
+
+See Photo/File Upload Instructions for using webdav/webfolders or winscp from your browser or with other tools, on various OSes.
+
The expo website supports 2 basic methods of upload:
+
+
Uploading directly to the file store using scp/sftp/rsync
+
Uploading to a special 'uploads' directory using Webdav
+
+
+
+
In the former case nothing else needs doing. In the second case an
+admin has to move the files to the correct final location, so rememebr
+to tell someone you've done it.
+
+
Note that uploading photos does not automatically update the view
+at http://expo.survex.com/photos/. An
+update script needs to be run. This should run once/day around
+midnight UTC, but may be broken. Prod a web admin.
Install the FireFTP addon. You can download this from addons.mozilla.org
+
+
Restart firefox
+
Start FireFTP (its hidden in the tools menu under 'web developer'.
+
FireFTP will open in a new tab. You should have 2 largish squares
+of files, one showing what should look like very familiar files and
+folders from your computer on the left and one which is completely greyed
+out on the right.
+
Select 'create an account' in the top left hand corner, a box full
+of fields requiring information should appear.
+
Under the main tab you can set the account name to be whatever you
+like, I suggest expo. Set the host to be: "expo.survex.com".
+The login is expo and the password is the usual password (email me if you
+cant remember). Under the connection tab you need to set the security to
+be sftp. Everything else should be left alone.
+
Press connect and the expo websites files should magically appear in
+the right hand side of the screen.
+
Upload your desired files to somewhere sensible using the green arrows
+on the centre of the screen.
+
+
+
Using scp
+
+
Works on Windows (using winscp), Linux (using scp), and no doubt mac and android with other tools.
+
+
The above FireFTP is just one example of a tool that does this job
+
+
+directory: /home/expo/expoimages/photos/2013/YourName
+server: expo.survex.com
+user: expo
+with the usual expo password
+protocol: sftp or scp
+
+
+
Obviously replace 'YourName' with your actual name (no spaces)
+
+
If you don't have winscp installed you can get it from here:
+http://winscp.net/eng/index.php
You can use 'open as webfolder' on IE, or install this:
+https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-as-webfolder/ on
+firefox, you will get a pop-up box asking for authenticaion for
+'expo-uploads'. The user is 'expo', the password is the usual
+one. Once done you can just copy files in.
+
+
Make a directory like photos/2013/YourName so we know what's
+been uploaded.
+
+
Command-line people can use the 'cadaver' client which is even
+available for windows too:
+http://www.phtagr.org/2009/04/01/cadaver-for-windows/
+
+
They both give you an 'explorer-like' interface (although winscp can
+give you a norton-commander-style 2-pane UI as well).
