Help with image preparation
Members — Assistance is available for editing images for use on the Gallery page, as an option, provided by PAVA’s web designer. The cost for this service is $25 per Gallery page — up to four digital images. Scanning from slides or prints is $35.
Editing includes dimensional size, resolution, cropping, brightness and contrast, working from any standard image format. Image files produced by the camera work fine. Images may be sent by email in jpg format.
