Guidelines and Procedures for the Open Galleries:
- There is no charge to submit photos to the open galleries at MendoPhoto.com
- The photographer retains copyright to the image; MendoPhoto.com requests only the non-exclusive right to display the image on its website.
- You may submit up to three photos in a week
- All submissions should be in jpeg (.jpg) format. They should be not more than 700 pixels wide, not more than 500 pixels high, and not more than 75kb file size
- All submissions will be reviewed by MendoPhoto.com's webmaster (from now on referred to as "Garth".) The decisions regarding whether or not an image is posted, and how long it remains posted, are made by him.
- Submissions reflecting wide range of styles, techniques, and content are encouraged.
- Artistically presented nudes are fine; pornography is not. Any subtle distinctions between artistic nudes and porn will be made by Garth.
- Digitally manipulated photos are fine; however, they should be identified as being digitally manipulated.
- To submit an image, the photographer should fill out MendoPhoto's Submission form.
Members' Galleries Application Procedure
MendoPhoto.com is also seeking outstanding local photographers to show online portfolio galleries on the site. There are no fees for set up, design, or maintenance of these galleries; however, MendoPhoto will receive a small commission on any sales or bookings made from the MendoPhoto galleries. Alternatively, photographers who have there own site may wish to place a linked banner on their MendoPhoto gallery, and pay a small fee for "click throughs".
Members' Galleries are normally reserved for Mendocino County residents; exceptions may be made at Garth's whim. To apply, or to get more information, either send Garth an email, or contact him by phone at 964-1760.
