Seascapes Group

I’m very pleased to announce the new group Seascapes

I’m looking forward to viewing waterscapes from around the world. I’d like to think that we can upload just our very very best, so please, limit your uploads to just ONE a day, and we’ll see how things go.

  1. One upload a day only
  2. Five photos per member only
  3. If you’d like critique, please ask.
  4. If you’d like information on how different techniques have been produced, please ask
  5. If you think you have a question that I haven’t mentioned, please ask.

Thanks for sharing your photos with us!

    Hi Mel, do cloud shots go under ‘landscape’ catergory? Stuck.

  • Mel Brackstone

    Mel Brackstone, 10 months ago

    Clouds go in the sky, Cathleen :)

    hehe

    You can put them in landscape, I’m guessing

    Mel – can I take it for granted that any ‘water’ scape will do?
    ie – lakes… :)

    Yay….a Seascapes Group!! Well done Mel! I’ll be joining this one, I’ve lived by the Sea all my life and I love it!

    Thanks for this Mel, it’s a group that needed to be created.

    I also note that, even at this early stage, there’s a couple of people who don’t appear to have got the “only one per day” request. ;-)

    I have a question that’s probably more interface related.

    There don’t appear to be any forums attached to the groups, so whilst I found this entry here in your journal, where do we ask these questions such as you mention?

  • bidkev

    bidkev, 10 months ago

    I can’t find a way to upload to the group. Can youplease give me some indication?

    bidkev: Go to the image you want to add to the group, but in edit mode, somewhere on the page you’ll find a list of checkboxes for the groups you’re a member of. Check for this group and save your image’s details.

    Personally I think it’s a horribly kludgy way of doing things and I hope RB change it at some point.

  • Mel Brackstone

    Mel Brackstone, 10 months ago

    Brenda, I expect they will come. You can bubblemail the person you wish to ask, until then.

    I was a bit slow on the one per day thing…..i’ll look at cleaning them out in a day or two :) Kev, bubblemail on the way

  • Mel Brackstone

    Mel Brackstone, 10 months ago

    thanks Dave and Mark…..lol! Mark, I’m originally figured I’d call it seascapes and limit it to seawater, but lakes can be a bit problematic in landscape, can’t they….what does everyone think? Shall we have lakes too?

  • Mel Brackstone

    Mel Brackstone, 10 months ago

    Looks like we’ve got lakes….lol! Waterscapes it is! Welcome everyone, I’m running out of puff

    Hi Mel, thanks for creating this group.

    I never know where to put my lakescapes so would be very happy if they are allowed in this group. Thank you :o)

  • Mel Brackstone

    Mel Brackstone, 10 months ago

    You’re always taking fantastic seascapes, Kathy, so please feel free to add some here!!!
    Andy, bubblemail on the way :)

    Do we upload images to the group. When I saw your entry I just loaded some seascapes up onto my site- but there are many more than one

    Fantastic Mel, this is the way to do it,
    Seascapes is a literal catagory.. Will join when I get one done. WTG Love and Good Luck Charlene

    Good to see such excellent uploads to the group! Welcome to all our new members!
    I’ve opened up a forum message board, if anyone feels they would like to offer their suggestions etc in there, then it can be shared with all the members.

  • Sprinkle

    Sprinkle, 10 months ago

    I was wondering if “Wish you where here…” was good enough to go into the group artwork. I absolutley adore seascapes, as I’m sure you’ve noticed by all of yours I’ve added to my favorites. So, if none of mine are good enough I won’t be offended, I just enjoy joining in on the viewing!

    Mel, I have just joined the group and in my enthusiasm have accidentally posted two photos in one day.

    Sorry about this – I will be more careful in the future.

    PS – Fantastic group!

    Are water related paintings welcome here? Or is it photo’s only?

    hello
    I have lots of pictures that could go in this group, but since there is only one upload a day, does this apply to writing also, or can we include one picture and one piece of writing related to the sea?
    thanks in advance

    sorry, been in hospital. You can upload one of each, photo or writing per day until the limits are reached.

    This looks like a great place so thinking of joining. Not quite sure what’s meant by ”# One upload a day only # Five photos per member only”..... but I’m sure you’ll fill me in :) :) Thanks Mel.
