Image Size Recommendations
Image Sizes for Web Delivery should be less than 50k (50,000bytes) per image, with a recommended size of 35k (35,000bytes). This is the optimal delivery size for most full sized images. Images should ideally be no larger than 400x600 pixels portrait or 600x400 pixels landscape. Smaller widths are recommended for landscape orientations.
Images should be uploaded only in 72dpi. Images that are uploaded in 300dpi will be approx 4 times larger in a browser than in your image editing application.

To avoid you’re images being resized, displayed in-properly or deleted, we suggest that you following these guidelines:

NEW IMAGE UPLOAD GUIDELINES
Bronze Members (5 images maximum)		Silver Members (81 images maximum)		Gold Members (151 images maximum)		Platinum Members (301 images maximum)		Platinum Plus Members (501 images maximum)
Pixel Size	File Size	Pixel Size	File Size	Pixel Size	File Size	Pixel Size	File Size	Pixel Size	File Size
No longer than 800 pixels on the longest side	Files should not be larger than 200K. JPG file format ONLY	No longer than 800 pixels on the longest side	Files should not be larger than 200K. JPG file format ONLY	No longer than 800 pixels on the longest side	Files should not be larger than 250K. JPG file format ONLY	No longer than 1024 pixels on the longest side	Files should not be larger than 500K. JPG file format ONLY	No longer than 1024 pixels on the longest side	Files should not be larger than 1MEG. JPG file format ONLY
Images that are out of specification in either size or dimension will be resized. We would recommend that you save your images as JPEG images (.jpg) and keep them under the size indicated for your membership level.

Content Guidelines
When uploading images please remember that OneModelPlace.com is a community of young teens as well as adults and as such ALL Adult oriented content (hustler style, or sexually explicit images, images showing genitalia, images involving sexual instruments, scenes depicting sex or extreme subjects etc.), are just not appropriate on the site and you should not attempt to upload them.

Nudity (glamour style etc.) and artistic nudity are wonderful art forms - they have and always will be very welcome on this site - they often show a models or photographers range and interest and are often a deciding factor in a photographers decision to work with a model or not, and visa versa. So it's fine to have nude images as part of a portfolio.

Remember - Please RATE your images appropriately - ALL images involving ANY form of nudity or see-through should ALWAYS be rated R. Light Fetish and Bondage images are subject to approval, and must also ALWAYS be rated R.

Since, content of an adult or sexually explicit nature is not welcome or appropriate on this site several things will occur if attempts are made to upload inappropriate images. The images will be deleted, the profile may be suspended or disabled, and access to upload images will be removed.
If you have any questions regarding what is appropriate or not send an email - dms@marketleaders.com

Image Type Recommendations
It is highly recommended that you upload jpeg images (.JPG files). Other file formats are generally much larger for the same image size because they do not employ any compression to the image. Two file formats that are not recommended are GIF Files and BMP files (the later is a windows native format and many Microsoft programs save this format as a default).
Images that are oversized will be resized by the Site Administrators. This often means that .gif and .bmp files end up very small looking because to reach the recommended file size the image will need far more shrinking than a .jpg file would.

Image Review
All images on OneModelPlace.com are reviewed by the Site Administrators. Please make sure that you read the image upload guidelines carefully, and pay particular attention to the image restrictions regarding appropriate content.

Macintosh owners should be aware that Netscape 6.0 is the only Browser that will correctly upload your images to the site.
Although we have re-written the image upload several times in attempts to get the upload from other browsers on the Macintosh to work, they still appear to be uploading in MacBinary format.
Mac Netscape Communicator, however, reliably uploads images in their raw format correctly.

The system has a limit of 600 pixels (along the longest side of the image) and 50k per image. Use JPG with a compression of 7 or 70% for the best quality.

See Image Upload Guidlines

Your browser may be outdated. Please check Basic System Requirement
Make sure all images are rated correctly. OMP recommends reading the Image Guidelines before uploading images. Also, if image were banded by one of the Administrators, the image won't upload. Please remove the image / images that may be offensive and your upload controls should return. In extreme situations where adult or objectionable material was uploaded, you may permanently lose your upload ability.

If you have repeatedly misrated images, the system will automatically pre-rated them "R". This is a safeguard built into the system.

Please check the following possible cause and we recommend reviewing the image guidelines and restrictions to prevent this situation.

Incorrectly classified or rated images are uploaded

Inappropriate or objectionable images are uploaded

AOL has its own compression mode installed in their software, which causes the distortion of the images true quality. We highly recommend using alternative browsers. Please find the useful links under Basic System Requirement and download other browsers.

Travel Dates/Notices are designed to allow (silver and higher) members the ability to notify other OMP members about upcoming travel plans to a different area. Sending Travel Notices can lead to additional jobs, to use the Travel Notification System, follow these steps:

Log in to your OMP profile

Go to "Manage My Profile"

Click on "Travel"

Read and follow directions and guidelines on the page

Be sure all fields have been filled accurately

Click: Add this Tour Promotion

Your Travel Availability and Schedule will be displayed in your OMP profile.

NOTE: Do NOT promote travel within your own geographical area (150 mile/300 Km radius) - instead you should contact specific members directly using the referral system. If you make a mistake DO NOT enter a new travel plan, EDIT the existing travel plan with the updated information.

Chat is only available to members of the site. Simply login and click on Chat icon on the menu. Proper "Netiquette" should be observed at all time while using chat. Those abusing chat will lose access to chat. Remember, you manage your chat preference in your "Manage My Profile" area. Check on Manage Profile to modify your chat name and icons.

Tip 1 - This may seem obvious, but a portfolio with images in general attracts more attention than those not having images. If you have a profile on the site that does not have images chances are that will be more difficult for either the model looking for a photographer, or the photographer or agent looking for a model, to actually make any kind of qualitative judgment to contact you and in the vast majority of cases they won't. In almost every case the profiles with images are viewed 5 to 10 times more often than profiles without images. In short images sell your ability and your art to members who may want to work with you. Additionally, remember to display your versatility in your profile, a good idea is to add images that reflect the kind of work you have done and the kind of work you are looking for.

Tip 2 - Actively Market yourself to other members on the site. While it is true that with the right images often work will find you, however Modeling and Photography is all about selling and marketing your abilities and skills. Actively use the site to seek out other members you might like to work with.

Tip 3 - Remember to keep your profile and especially your email address up-to date. If inquiries are sent and the email address is no longer working the profile will likely be deleted (we make every attempt to contact the member via other web sites etc. before doing this). It is very important that the information is up-to date, since that again is one of your best marketing tools on the site.

Tip 4 - Promote travel. When you are traveling to different locations and wish to work with other members on your travels, publish the schedule and then follow-up with members who look like potential fits for your work style. Depending upon your membership level you can place the following number of concurrent notices: Bronze - 0, Silver - 2, Gold - 5, Platinum & Platinum+ - 10

Tip 5 - Try to reply to every professional work inquiry. If you are not interested in the work offered, at the very least reply with a decline and thank you. It is easy to get a bad reputation by ignoring emails.
