    *starts to wonder who he has access to who is over 70*

    Now THIS will be a very interesting challenge!!!

    when is the closing date?

    Some 70 year olds look younger than they are..

    Does it have to be posed? Natural pictures are so much nicer.

    That sounds so so wrong in my mind.


    Interesting challenge indeed.

    When I said "posed" I meant that you're interacting with them as opposed to just observing some random elderly person who you don't know. So no, they don't have to be formally posed or anything.

    Baz may well have this stitched up, but there again he mightn't get the popular vote ...

    We need to set a closing date for this.

    Would the person who decided the subject care to decide?:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,067 ✭✭✭AnimalRights


    Yeah I mean if it was a normal 48 hours compo I would have won!
    Only entrant!!!

    Image added but awaiting admin "approval"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,067 ✭✭✭AnimalRights


    You just can't slap a picture up here? You need Admin approval?

    A new folder has been created and you can now upload to

    http://copper.darrengreenephotography.com/index.php

    Images should be uploaded to the above site. They are then made viewable to everyone when the competition closes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,067 ✭✭✭AnimalRights


    aaahhh right-e-o
    Was wondering why Eddie was the only pic here. :o

    /edit
    Positive ageing folder?
    and can't see how to upload there?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 294 ✭✭countryjimbo


    Darren - What's the limit on the photo size, my file size is under 1mb but I get the following "The height and or width of the uploaded picture is more than that allowed by the gallery config."

    Max width or height is 2048KB. I can increase it if necessary.
