What do we need?
Photographs of Places of Worship blah blah blah.
Definition of Place of Worship for this project.
Ownership
Photographs should be taken by yourself, or you must have the photographer’s permission. Although members retain control and ownership of the photos, copyright should be waived so that Family Tree Forum can use them. Images downloaded from the internet are not acceptable as this is a breach of copyright.
If a photo appears in The Places of Worship, which relates to an event in your family history, then copies can be made for personal use. It is discretionary whether one should send a private message (pm) to the submitter.

Camera settings??
If you do not feel able to add your own pictures to The Wiki, you can add your pictures to a thread in the Regional Projects Forum. This should be done from online storage rather then directly uploading them to the thread.
Online Storage
Photobucket is one of several ways of using online storage for your pictures. Free users can upload up to 1GB of files images which is up to around 10,000 files. Pro users can upload up to 5GB of files which is up to around 50,000 files. You can organise your pictures into Albums and Sub Albums.
If you are using Photobucket to host your pictures until they are uploaded to The Wiki then choose either large (640x480) or (800x600). Once the pictures have been transferred from the thread to The Wiki, they can be deleted from your Photobucket account.
