Haha, thx, I also took time to look at yours... great site!

Thanks! I still have to work on it a bit. I have a few updates, but just haven't published them yet.

This photo has potential even with the under exposure, color balance error, focus sharpness, and lighting issues, but you don't allow edits, so no one can show you any editing possibilities.

Would I have to change that, or can I just tell people that they're allowed on this thread?

-Ken Turner

No. You do not have to change your chosen preference in your profile, and can grant permission limited to this thread only by clearly stating your permission is limited to only this thread.

Thank you! I'm uploading the RAW files now!

 

[KmH]

You can't upload the Raw files to TPF. Raw files aren't images.

The JPEGs you have already uploaded are sufficient for the purposes of illustrating what could be done by editing the photos. They are so large as it is, they take some time to load.

So does that mean that in this thread only, you approve editing the photos you have posted in this thread?

But I'm uploading RAW files to another domain to make it easy to download...

Yes, people can edit my photos from this thread only and post them in this thread only.

EDIT: My website isn't working for some reason, but you can just save the jpeg files and edit them.

Two versions. First a normal edit, them a high contrast, gritty style that is popular these days.

True, I would recommend using that empty space u have a bit more. And maybe a smoother transition of pictures and words when clicking on pages

The cat was out of the bag as soon as you put the photos on the internet.

Copyright is federal law and federal law actions are only heard in federal court. Federal court will not accept the filing of an infringement action until the intellectual property allegedly being infringed is registered, or in the process of being registered with the federal Copyright Office.

Hmm thanks for that! I'll have to read all the specifics and stuff. You learn something new everyday!

And even though you don't give permission to edit (except in this thread) - people can still download and save your images. I think it was KmH who mentioned that your files were large - you should resize them so they are smaller. That way if you post an amazing shot on the internet people can only steal a crappy low-res one.
