I have some photos I
would like to submit, what do I do now? |
Just follow these
guidelines:
- Scan your pictures, but please
DO NOT COMPRESS THEM. I will resize everything at this end.
- Save and send them as a .gif
or .jpg format.
- Include any information which
will help identify the picture. (Photographer’s name and
location, identity of photo subject, etc.) Please try to
identify the borough/census area for me. In the absence of a
county equivalent please describe the connection the photo has
to Alaska.
- Send your photo as an e-mail
attachment.
