<h1>Uploading Photos (simple)</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>We have an online form you can use from any web browser to upload a load of files
|
|
to your folder on the server for the current year of the expedition.
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Use the <a href="/photoupload/">Upload Photos</a> form
|
|
<li>More explanations in <a href="uploading.html">Uploading Photos (complex)</a>
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
You will need to login as user 'expo' with the usual {cavy:beery} password.
|
|
|
|
<p>This is restricted to upload photos into the server's photo area for just the current year's expedition. There is a sub-form on the
|
|
page for you to create a folder if there is not already one with your name on it.
|
|
|
|
<p>Your own photo folder is named like this: <var>YourName</var>. It is a
|
|
<a href="https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-personal-names">simplified, anglicized</a> version of your name.
|
|
It should have no spaces, accents.
|
|
hyphens, apostrophes or underline characters.
|
|
When creating a new folder using the form, the form will prevent you using nonalphabetic characters.
|
|
|
|
<p>(You cannot create sub-folders. All your photos go into the same folder.)
|
|
|
|
<p>Please, please rename the filenames of the photos intelligently to e.g.
|
|
"<var>big-hole-near-path-to-fgh.jpg</var>", or "<var>2018-ad-07-entrance3.jpg</var>"
|
|
rather than "<var>DSC31415926.jpg</var>" or whatever your camera app produces.
|
|
|
|
<p>Please use lower-case for all the filenames of photogrpahs.
|
|
|
|
<p>Please don't upload lots of near-duplicate photos: cull them first to just the good ones.
|
|
|
|
<h2>Simple instructions</h2>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>If you only have a photo or two just email or message them to someone who knows how to do it. <br>
|
|
If you are doing more than a few photos, email will be clunky, so do this:
|
|
|
|
<li>Copy the photo files from your phone to any laptop using a USB cable.<br>
|
|
See <a href="#android">phone app</a> if you do not know how to copy files from your phone.
|
|
<li>Rename the filenames of the photos to something descriptive (see para above).
|
|
<li>After copying your files to a laptop, use the the <a href="/photoupload/">Upload Photos</a> form to upload them.
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p><b>Complete beginners</b> can also put all their files into their own folder within the folder
|
|
<var>/home/expo/expofiles/uploads/</var> on the <a href="computer.html"><i>expo laptop</i></a> and
|
|
ask a more experienced user to upload them.
|
|
|
|
<h3>Blog photos</h3>
|
|
<p>If you want to use your photos in a blog (see
|
|
<a href="uploading.html#blog">Using uploaded photos in blogs</a>), use the
|
|
<a href="/photoupload/">Upload Photos</a> form to upload the high quality, original resolution image files first.
|
|
Then in your blog, reference those photos using a URL such as this:
|
|
<a href="https://expo.survex.com/expofiles/photos/2022/UK-Caving-Blog-2022/">
|
|
https://expo.survex.com/expofiles/photos/2022/UK-Caving-Blog-2022/myfancyphoto.jpg</a>
|
|
|
|
<p>That's it, you're done. Well, you won't see them online yet, but that's not your job at this point.
|
|
|
|
<h3>Photos script</h3>
|
|
<p>The albums online on the server are regenerated by a script which is run occasionally which uses a package called 'bins', see <a href="../troggle/serverconfig.html">server config</a>. More detail in the
|
|
more complex (but not yet expert) <a href="uploading.html">instructions</a>.
