For a while now, we’ve been testing out a project semi secretly here on the website. We’re calling it “Republic On The Move”. The Republic is getting bigger by the day which means we are covering alot of ground. We all take camera phone pictures of the places we go, but waiting until we get home to contribute to the site can be a bummer some times because the moment is lost. So with the “Republic On The Move” project we are hoping to capture the moment. To do this, we are going to allow our contributors to post their camera phone pictures directly to our website!
Its just as easy as sending in a twitpic, flickr photo or facebook photo from your camera phone. When the picture(s) appear on the site, they will automatically fit to the size requirements of the site. Clicking on the photo will show the full sized photo! Cool right?
It only takes 5 steps…
1. Take picture (1 or 2 – if youre savvy like that)
2. Elect to send picture as email
3. Give the email a title. Title of email will be title of your post. ( we suggest where you are currently or maybe what youre doing currently… something cool like that)
4. Include any other text about your picture in the body of your email.
5. SEND!
That easy!!
Here are a few examples of what we’ve submitted so far:
