May 6: Photos Added to Q&A Pages/ Your Help Needed!
We've made a small update to the Q&A pages! We want to add more life and color to our Q&A pages!
We've added the option to add photos to each question. This means, you can go to each Q&A page and upload a picture which represents that question.
All of the pictures that are uploaded will be approved prior to being displayed.
We encourage you all to upload some pictures & give these pages a little more life!
Here are the steps on how to help:
1) Go to the main Q&A page here: https://www.7cups.com/qa/
2) Select a topic you'd like to help out with & click through to the corresponding page!
2) Review the question list! Find a question you'd like to share a picture on.
3) Click through to that questions' page!
ex. How do I get help when I don't have anyone?
4) If that question does NOT have a picture yet, you will see a box on the top left corner inviting you to upload a corresponding picture. The box looks like this:
5) Upload a picture that best represents that question!
6) Your picture will be submitted for approval. You will see it approved on the page within 24 - 48 hours.
An example of a complete page can be found here!
Thank you! Happy picture hunting!!!
@Laura
This sounds like a wonderful idea, and hopefully I can help find some corresponding images. My question is; do the images need to be pre-cut to a certain size or will the mods do that after if they feel the image is right for the question but just a little too big for the page?
@Mamabear83 ... yes, I want to know this too.
@cyanPlatypus6370 @mambear83
As far as i am aware, they do not need to be precut :)
@Laura What is the plan for making the categories of this section correct? Is having pictures on these going to make that process more difficult?
@Laura
Love this idea :)
@Laura
Love this idea :)
@Laura
It would be better if you we could upload using image URLs. I don't fancy saving loads of images for questions.
Any guidelines for photo hunters so that copyright owners' rights aren't infringed upon?
@soothingpurrr
See notes below on policy here!
@Laura Wow really? Are you saying 7 Cups does not care if someone's photo is stolen and used without their consent?
@Laura haha self-editing posts is cheating. Thanks for the clarification.
Is it looking for photos of an uplifting nature or something that represents and displays the emotion?
@XiTalksSoft I think it would be sensible to get permission first, or maybe search through Creative Commons for images with no copyright limitations. Good cause or not, photographers/artists work hard for their money and product.
@SpencerT I think you replied to the wrong person, but yes - "Good cause or not, photographers/artists work hard for their money and product."
To which I'll add, Good cause or not, using a copyrighted photo without the copyright owner's consent is stealing.
@soothingpurrr @SpencerT Any photo I would use are photos or graphics that have been made by me.
