INSTRUCTIONS ON SUBMITTING PHOTOS,
ITEMS AND REQUESTS TO THIS SITE
There are some basic instructions that I would like you to keep in mind when submitting photos and items of memorabilia to this site.
Photos and Items of Memorabilia That You Scan
• Please scan all
photos and items large. I will down size them to fit the site as
needed.
• Photos should be scanned larger than your
screen.
• JPG or BMP format is fine and high definition is no
problem as well.
• Business cards should be scanned larger than half of your
screen.
• Always give a brief description and the year that the
photo or item was taken.
• Please do not add text to any of the photos or items. It
will render them unusable.
If You Do Not Have a Scanner
• Many
of those that do not have a scanner send their items to the Webmaster for scanning.
• Items to be scanned by the Webmaster are scanned as soon as possible
and sent back right away. If this is something that you would
wish to do....
• Contact the Webmaster with your intentions and he will
send you the address that you will need to send the items.
• Items that are scannable by the Webmaster are Prints, Slides and Negatives, as well as cards, maps, etc.
• Make sure that all envelopes with photos are marked as
"DO NOT BEND" and placed in a protective type envelope.
Stories You Wish To Submit
• Stories can be composed by you, or you can give me as much information of your experience as possible and I will compose your story for you.
PX Requests
• With
the help of many friends in the PI, research is being done to
find those that were into skillful manufacturing of items for the
purchase by those that were stationed and passing through the US
bases of the Philippines. We have been successful in contacting
many, and now with the word being spread out over the areas, have
been contacted by many more.
• If you have a request in finding a certain Merchant from
the past, let us know. We will do our best in trying to contact
these people and at least find out how they are doing.
Thanks for
all that you do!
