I recently took about 800 pictures of my child and the other players on his team, during a week long national sports tournament. I told the parents I would make the photos available to them when we got home. Now the challege of how to go about this. The pictures were taken with a Canon 5D and each has a RAW and JPEG version. The dimension is 2112 X 3168. The RAWs are about 13M and JPEG between 1-2.5M. I need to be able to allow the parents to be able to view all the pictures easily, select one they like and be able to print at 8X10. I have photoshop and also have a web site where I could put them.
The problems:
- I want to put them on the web so I can direct the parents to go to a url and view them
- I don't want people to have to select every single picture, just see them all (there's 800). I found slideshow software which you can put on your site, so this may be the answer to that issue
- I want people to be able to download the picture they want and just print it, not have to manipulate it in photo editing software to get at right size /resolution e.g. keep things as easy as possible
- I want to use the RAW version and convert to an 8x10 size with a printable resolution. I know I use image size option in Photoshop, but which options e.g. resample?,etc. I also know that I could use the batch option to automate the process.
- if I create the picture as a 8x10, will it be too big for a slideshow..do I have to create a smaller one too?
Looking for the best solution to make things easiest for everyone.Thanks
