General Tips
Set up your photo by getting close to your subject. Pictures
taken from a distance often lack the detail that is necessary to
show up well in the newspaper. If people are in the photo, focus
on their faces; a full length shot is rarely necessary.
Choose a photo that is in focus and that frames the subject
well. Aphoto that is too dark or is "fuzzy" will only be darker and
fuzzier on newsprint, which is very porous paper, and will not
be accepted.
Each photo must have an accompanying caption--"cutline"
in journalism terms. That caption should describe what is taking
place in the picture.
Each person in the photo must be identified. Group photo
identifications should be from left to right, starting with the front
row.
Always include the name and a daytime telephone number for
the person submitting the information. That way, if there is a
question about the information (spelling of a name, identification
of a person pictured, etc.), the issue can be resolved quickly.
Do not fax photos; the image cannot be reproduce. They may
be mailed, dropped by our office or e-mailed.
Mailed/Dropped Off Photos
Never send/drop off an irreplaceable photograph. While
newspaper staffers are as careful as possible, photos may be
damaged or lost, either in the office or in the mail.
Every effort will be made to return a photo which is
accompanied by a self-addressed, stamped envelope of the
appropriate size. Once printed in the paper, other photos are
placed in a box in the front office of the newspaper and may be
picked up in a reasonable amount of time.
Don't tape, staple or otherwise affix a photo to anything else.
If you must write an identifier on the back of the photo, use a
ball-point pen, not a gel-writer or marker that will rub off on other
pictures.
E-Mailed Photos
When e-mailing a picture, send it as a high-resolution jpg. Do
not embed photos into any Word documents.
If e-mailing directly from a digital camera, do not make
adjustments to the image.
If e-mailing a scanned image, send it at least four inches wide,
with a resolution of at least 300 dpi (dots per inch).
The best way to send the accompanying text is to include the
words in the body of the e-mail, with the picture only as the
attachment. The newspaper cannot accept Publisher, Wordpad
or Wordperfect files.
