[Harp-L] Re: SPAH photos



Randy,
I'm no flickr expert and there are other options out there, but flickr is a big, dependable one (as is picasso which I think fjm mentioned). These are free and they will let you upload by individual pic or in large batches (I don't know whether you'll be able to do 150 all at once--you might have to break it into batches of 50 or something, but maybe not).
Good luck,
Marc Molino

I hope that this can incorporate one important element.-----the ability to upload a batch of photos at the same time.

for example, I have 150 spah photos (and some videos).

It would be impossible for me(time-wise) to upload each one individually. I would want to upload all 150 at the same time.

do u think this is a possibility?

thankssssssss

Seeing publicity on SPAH in Milwaukee and having played harmonicas 65 years ago, my curiosity led me into reading this Digest. Suddenly it's like a whole 'nother world. You guys have names for all the things I used to do with my tongue and lips, and then some. You even went so far as to number the holes so you could describe how they work, and the subtle differences between them. A clever idea.

In message #4 of Issue 49, Marc Molina suggested to Randy Singer that someone set up a flickr group to post members' photos and make them accessible. Recently I've had considerable success posting my sporting event photos on my friend Bill's website. Since Bill is an experienced webmaster, I emailed him and asked whether he would be interested in participating. Although he declined, his answer is worth your attention.

"Interesting. Not something I'd want to get into (ie. Webmastering / photo guru); not enough time to take on more at this point. But it sounds like [Marc] might be on the right track regarding posting photos for all the group to see. He mentions flickr.com - that may be what they would want to do. Or something like smugmug.com for posting photos. I don't know too much about flickr, but smugmug I do. There is a small fee for the year to house photos at smugmug, but they also offer a printing service as well. That's what I would recommend to them."

It seems to me, someone in the club should just do it, and fast. First get the approval of club management, then set it up and either control or monitor it so it doesn't get abused. Do it on a trial basis initially, then make changes as required. I know from experience that interest in the photographs will wane in a few days.
