  1. Please do not send photos larger than 300K in size.
  2. Header photos exceeding 300 pixels in height will be cropped for consistency.
  3. You may also send an optional thumbnail of dimensions 43x56 pixels. This image will act as a link to your profile. You can use the free online Image Mechanic to resize your photo.
If you do not have access to a scanner, special arrangements may be made. Please email Sean Martin for details.

Contribute your ideas:

Method 1

The Photo Gallery is dynamic in that it uses templates for all profiles.
All dynamic data (eg. Location) is designated by placeholders (eg. %%Location%%). To add more data (fields), simply make up your own placeholders.
If you can come up with a better design, you may download and modify the templates; then email your versions to ilia@lobsanov.com for consideration. Thank you.

Method 2

If you have original ideas on improving the usability and/or interface of Photo Gallery, please email ilia@lobsanov.com

Method 3

There is some software behind this. I have called it DPGS - Duma Photo Gallery System, and made it open-source. You are very welcome to take part in further development of the system.
