Adding your belly is easy!
Q. How long does it take to get my photo added?
A. It varies greatly depending on factors. Please do not write to ask about your photo. I will contact you to tell you when and where it is being displayed.
Q. Why would you not use a photo?
A. The main reason that photos aren't used are failure to include the permissions statement in the email, failure to enclose the photo as an attachment and poor quality of the photo. Photos sent in forms I can't read. There are other reasons photos may not be used, but these are the reasons photos are most often rejected.
Q. What type of format do you want on your photos?A. Only JPEGs Here's what you do:
1. Use a digital camera photo or SCAN your favorite photo to a JPG file. Please try to keep your photos to less than 40K and 375 pixels wide.
