New OUTDOORSmagic Photo Gallery Live!

You now have 3 megabytes of space to show your favourite outdoors photos to the world as we launch our latest site feature, the new photo gallery.

The more alert among you, or maybe the biggest slackers, might just have noticed a new tab on our navigation system, it says 'Gallery' and is a direct link to the newest feature on OUTDOORSmagic, which is - astonishingly - an OUTDOORSmagic member photo gallery.

It basically does what it says on the can. All OUTDOORSmagic members now have three megabytes of space on the site to display their favourite outdoors images to the world and, more specifically, other OM users.

It's relatively dead easy to use - it must be because I just used it - simply click on the gallery link and follow the instuctions. We've popped up some pics of the Annapurna Circuit trek - right - so you can see how things look and how your finished album will appear to users.

If you have any problems, check out our how to use the gallery page and you should find the answer there.

A few quick points worth noting:

  • You have a total of 3 MB of space, so you can upload more smaller images.
  • Each image is limited in size to 250 K, the uploader won't let you uploads bigger ones
  • Images have to be approved before going live so there will be a short delay
  • Images can be any shape but tall ones won't thumbnail as well
  • That's it really, hold onto your pants, the gallery is live....

We reckon it's a great addition to the site and will build into a fantastic resource in time. Enjoy :-)

Take a look at the gallery page now.

Good news, the OM gallery feature is now live, click on the article at the top of this thread for more info, but all OM members now have 3 MB of spave you can use to host your favourite outdoor images for the world to gasp over.

A few points: image sizes are limited to 250k but there are no dimensional stipulations, all images have to be approved before going live, but we'll try to do this as quickly as possible, and right now it's quite empty bar a few snaps of the Annapurna Circuit by yours truly.

Anyway, it's quite easy to use, have a go and see how you get on plus get back to us if there are any problems - yes, I know there's no batch upload facility at the moment.

It's taken a while, but I think it'll be worth it :-)
