submit your photo

a few guidelines... 

                                       

A few guidelines:
photos must be of bettas you have purchased directly from me or of the offspring of a pair you purchased directly from me, hence you have to be a customer of mine to qualify.
photos must be of adequate quality. If a photo is too blurry, it will not be published.
make sure the bettas can be seen without the help of a microscope LOL
only .jpg, .gif or .tif format will be accepted. Tifs are larger and will take in most cases too long to download, so please try to send only .jpg or .gif
make sure your file is easy to download. Large pictures take too long, so reduce the size to a suitable download time.
do not zip your files. (I mean it)
avoid sending more than two photos of the same bettas LOL! Try to select the best shot of each betta and send only one ot two photos per betta.
your name, address, phone number, email address or website address will remain strictly confidential and will not be published under any circumstances. 
feel free to send a little blurb about your betta (its name, personality traits, any little funny story about it, how long you have had it, etc...), but make sure it is less than 10 lines long.

A bit of legal mumbo jumbo :)) :

you authorize BETTATALK to publish one or more of your photos indefinitely.
submitting a photo is not a guaranty that it will be published. All photos will be screened.
by submitting a photo you certify that you are the owner of the betta and the photo and authorize BETTATALK to publish it in the galleria, indefinitely and free of charge.
there are no compensation offered for submitting a photo (other than pride LOL). BETTATALK gets over 1700 hits a day so you know the whole wide world will see your babies and (hopefully) admire them :)).

To submit your photos:

take your digital photos, crop them and resize them until they are small enough to be uploaded in less than 5 mn
attach them to an email with a big header reading : PHOTO SUBMISSION. In the body of text, put your name, your city and state so I can make sure you are one of my many customers. 
in the body of the email send the info and story about your betta (optional)
Do not zip your files!! AOL will zip them up automatically for us. Files you zip will be rejected. (cause the only thing I care to unzip these days is Mr.181's cool 501s ;)  hehehehe)
do not email your photos to my main email address or I will have to put a contract on your head!!!! LOL. Please use the link provided below instead. A MUST!!!!! Thank you!
