You must register with CSN before contributing to the Expressions Gallery.
After registering, you may make as many contributions to the gallery
as you wish--poems, song lyrics, articles, photographs, artwork, stories,
recipes, graphics, etc. All contributions will be listed and linked
to your Personal Web Page.
To contribute to the Expressions Gallery:
-
From the left-side menu located throughout CSN, select
the Expressions Gallery link. Then select "Make your own contribution
to the gallery."
-
OR, from the Tool Kit on the right-hand side of Your
CSN Start Page, select "Contribute to the Expressions Gallery."
-
To contribute content of different categories, click
the links under Stories, Poetry and Songs, or Images.
-
Enter text and/or visual content into the appropriate
fields.
-
Click "All finished" to submit your contribution.
-
On the review page, click "Looks Good, Save It!" to
complete the submission.
-
OR select "Hold on. Let me make some changes," make
changes, and review your contribution.
Click "Looks Good, Save It!" when finished.
Tips on making submissions:
-
When submitting published articles, you may want to
upload a picture of the article using the Upload Picture option, and
then put a text version of the article in the text box provided. When
posted on the Web site, visitors will see a picture of the article
as well as the text, for easy reading.
-
You can upload an image from your computer by clicking
the Browse button next to the field labeled "Image File." Locate the
image on your computer system, and click "OK." The file must be in
either JPG or GIF format. The file size does not matter, as the CSN
Web site will automatically size your photo.
-
You can copy text into the text box on the Contribute
to the Gallery form, as long as it is a TXT (.txt) file. Word (.doc)
or other file formats may cause formatting problems. To make a .txt
file, open the document you want to post in the gallery. Under the
File menu, select "Save As." Give the file a name, and note where
it is being saved so that you can find it later. Under the File Name
field, select "Text" from the drop-down menu that contains file types.
Select "Save." You now have a .txt file from which you can copy and
paste the content into a CSN form.
-
The size of the Enter Text box on the contributions
page does not imply a limit on the amount of text you can enter. The
box will automatically scroll to wherever you are typing or your cursor
is placed.
-
When submitting song lyrics or poetry, any line breaks
in your .txt file will be preserved on the posted contribution page.
-
CSN is not programmed to allow you to upload audio
content at this time.
-
If you do not have the computer capability to put
your contribution in the gallery, email webmaster@acscsn.org,
and we will provide you with an address and instructions for mailing
your contribution to CSN. Your submission will be posted for you and
connected to your Personal Web Page.
