On-Line Members’ Gallery
 
Submission Guidelines
 

The Members’ Gallery is the on-line exhibit of our member’s artistic work. If you are interested in being included in the Members’ Gallery and have a current membership, we will create one web page of images to be included in our Members’ Gallery. This free service is offered as part of your membership benefits.

Each gallery page shares a common design (see sample template PDF file) in order to comfortably fit text and images, including panoramas, without horizontal scrolling for browsers that are running in monitors with a resolution of 800x600 pixels and up. The target monitor and browser resolution is 1024x768 and up.
