UPDATING YOUR SITE ON THE NYAC ONLINE PORTFOLIO

All you have to do to update your site is to email satre@satre.org your new images/resume/info/etc. Your annual renewal fee covers any updates as often as you like (within reason) with no extra charge. Please allow 2 weeks (under normal circumstances) for updates to be completed.

PREPARING IMAGES:
Submit images of your work so that all 3 on your site will look good together. They should be cohesive and look clean and professional on one page. Your images should be in JPEG (.jpg) format and no side should be less than 400 pixels wide. Save with MAXIMUM jpeg quality. (For example: if your image is square, your smallest allowable jpeg would be at least 400 pixels x 400 pixels saved at 80% quality ("Maximum" setting). If your image was twice as high as it is wide, your smallest allowable jpeg would be at least 800 pixels high x 400 pixels wide. Note that dpi (dots per inch) is irrelevant here, pay attention to pixel size only when making your images). Try to keep the file size below around 300 kB (kilobytes) each or they will take an unnecessarily long time for you to send them and to receive them for processing. Of course, it's still OK if they're larger, just be prepared to wait a while for uploading. If you are not sure how to make good quality images for the Web, download this tutorial prepared by Satre (file is a 1.3 MB Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) file). IMPORTANT: your file names should include your LAST NAME ONLY and the image number. For example, if your name was Leonardo DaVinci, you should name your files "davinci1.jpg", "davinci2.jpg", and "davinci3.jpg" accordingly. FOLLOW THIS NAMING CONVENTION PRECISELY PLEASE! DO NOT INCLUDE YOUR FIRST NAME, CAPITAL LETTERS, OR TITLES.

SENDING IMAGES:
Email your images as attachments to satre@satre.org. Be sure to name your files correctly before you attach them, e.g. "davinci1.jpg", "davinci2.jpg", "davinci3.jpg". If you do not name them correctly, it will be extremely difficult if not impossible to match them up to you. If you do not know how to send attachments, consult the directions on your email software. Include the following information for each attachment:

File Name
Title
Materials
Size (length x width x height)
Date

FOR EXAMPLE:
davinci1
Portrait of Mona Lisa
oil on wood
30 x 21 inches
1503

SENDING TEXT-BASED MATERIALS:
If you are planning on updating any text files such as a statement, bio, etc., make sure they are either in Microsoft Word (.doc), Rich Text Format (.rtf), or plain text (.txt) format. If you are submitting a RESUME, a pdf (Adobe Acrobat) file is desirable, but it can also be submitted as a Word, Rich Text Format, or text document and a pdf will be made for you.

SENDING OTHER INFO:
If you want to update URLs (Web site addresses) or email addresses, simply include the correct information in an email to satre@satre.org.
