See the advert top left of the POE pages, read through it and make some money! Have fun dear members, it's going to make a huge difference (I think). |

Already signed up so come on folks lets see how we can help bolster the coffers of POE. I have asked Chris and Sarah to confirm but I suspect that in order to sell at the higher level uploads may have to be made at the max 4.99mb limit. I don't think this should pose a problem with 'theft' of the POE photo pages as I think that when the POE acceptance is granted some 'behind the scenes magic' is effected in which the images are shrunk for web use anyway, so anyone wanting to 'borrow' them would not have an image of any great size |

Almost certainly you would not get a useable print off that let alone acceptance to anything other than web use |

| Dave John Posts: 22335 Joined: 27th Feb 2011 Location: England | quotePosted at 20:45 on 18th January 2014 Just had my confirmation from C&S and as I thought the higher upload limit is prefereable in order to offer better quality 'saleable' image. And there is more to come so keep checking and watching the 'SALES' banner |

For ages now I have just downsized to 1280 max to enable a quicker upload, but now I am a wondering what the proceedure will be. Any thoughts? |

I'll see what I can come up with
