This is how it looks at present - pretty good I think BUT it would be good to have more recent artworks by the membership. The prints that you have been making since about 2 years ago which is when the images on the site were uploaded. Members who have work on there at present include
Clare Yarrington Peter Kirley Bill Mc Kechnie Susan M. C. Smith
Mary Fairgrieve Thora Clyne Colin Beaumont Sheila Carnduff
I am going to refer to the gallery page of member Angela Heidemann as an example of what is needed for either your new page or your update.
TEXT for your Gallery page
Members are free to put some text onto their gallery page which enables visitors to get a sense of their inspiration, motivation, including e.g., technical interests and so on and so forth . There is also the opportunity to give a brief biography or present a fuller Curriculum Vitae, if this is what they prefer.
However if you put too much information on your page which probably applies to member Scannells page - then when the visitor goes through to the gallery to see images - unfortunately they are just confronted with a load of text and may not bother scrolling further down the screen....!!
So do bear that in mind -
Now.........I have done a rough calculation and something of the order of
11 to 15 lines of text in a Microsoft Word doc or on an email page at normal reading size is a good 'amount' to aim for.
IMAGES for your Gallery page
Please send image files that are ‘saved for web’ using Photoshop. You may send up to 10 images.
These need to be - 72 dpi. (pixels per inch) and saved at medium quality.
Images should be about 15 cm (height) x 18 cm (width) cm - or as close as possible to that.
Include title, media, edition (if applicable)
Please send a " list of art works" either typed directly into an email
or saved as a Microsoft Word. doc
File should be named as per the following example
AineScannell_list_works_2012.doc
Below is an example of how your list of works should be presented:
