Re: [CBQ] sharing Bill Hammers negative scans

["Michael Woodruff" <mwoodruff54@gmail.com>]

Save and keep those hi-res scans in their own folder, but then make reduced sized jpegs of each one (say 1200 X 800 pixels or so, roughly "screen size") and post those to the group a few at a time.  With only a few dozen images in question, the process shouldn't be too time-consuming.

All,

I have scanned a number of Bill Hammer's 35 mm B&W negatives. Rough guess is there are about 40 - 50 images at roughly 82 MB per scan. (I do high resolution scans. Probably higher than needed.)  Most location and specific dates are unknown. Would it be best to send these on to the "Flickr" admins, or trickle them out so that comments can be obtained on more specific info. Bill Hammer would like to share these and preserve them for the future.

Thinking about it, the large size precludes sending via email.

Ray,

There are four of us currently involved directly with the Flickr gallery. Included are Louis Zadnichek, the originator of the project and primary source for many of the photos, Chuck Zeiler, who has an extensive collection of his own photos related to the Q and has done much of the creation and organization of the Flickr site itself, Rupert Gamlen in New Zealand, who has a large collection of Q photos and material and who is an outstanding researcher and organizer, and myself with my own collection of Q photos that both my late father and I took over the years starting about 1936 for my dad. In addition, the directors of the BRHS have provided assistance in so many ways including providing a platform for the Q Flickr gallery within the BRHS website. I know I will overlook someone, but specifically Jack Schroeder, Dave Lotz, Charlie Vlk and Hol Wagner have always provided valuable assistance with information and material wherever possible or needed. We are so very pleased with the BRHS relation allowing the material that we have collected to be available to the very people that can use it, rather than keeping it confined to a relatively small group. It is gratifying to see that BRHS members are using the Flickr gallery.

A BIG THANK YOU to the fLickr team that has coordinated and managed and maintained all the files. I know it's a lot of work, but know that we all appreciate your efforts. 

And to all those that have contributed photos to build up the 30,000 plus photos, THANK YOU for sharing these with us.

PS I may have missed something, what members make up the flicker team?
