Thread: Let's assemble some house pictures!
Already posted this in another thread, but I figured it might get a little more attention here...
Alright architects, its time to increase our sales by having a floorplan website. I'm gonna provide the webhosting, even though I'll hit my bandwidth cap within three hours =)
Anyone who owns a house of some sort: take screenshots. Of the outside, of the inside, of the rooms, of the layout, of anything that people might want to know. If you want to really help us out, draw a sketch of the floorplan and scan it.
Step 2. Make sure the pictures are in JPG format and reasonably small (<300k). Name them planet_size_floorplan_picturenumber.jpg. Like naboo_small_1_1.jpg, naboo_small_1_2.jpg, and so on.
Step 3. Go anonymously ftp to ftp.contre.org. You have to use "[email protected]" (no quotes) as your login, the password doesn't matter. Go into the "incoming" folder, and upload your screenshots.
Step 4. If I get enough to be helpful, I'll assemble them and post the URL on this board. Hark, to your houses with cameras!
You don't have to draw the floorplan and scan it, just takea screenie with the floorplan up... It's CTRL+M to bring up the overhead map and then hold CTRL while you use a mouse wheel (if available) to zoom in or out to fit on screen properly. Then scrrenshot...
I have a few screenies of my own. I may ftp them up for you.
