Having progressive pictures to help ID chicks - Page 3  

I'm willing to help, however I can, also!

Guitartists, we'll do this in stages.   We'll start out with a static page and then if we get a lot of submissions and it proves helpful we can expand it into a cool database application that allows for searching and filtering!

Well, why don't we start with 2 people, guitartists and myself, and we can always split the work up between more people as we get volunteers and more work to do?

Should we split alphabetically? And we should probably start a thread of pictures needed or something, once we figure out how we want to do things. ???

But I'm the newbie here

Didn't mean to leave you out, chirpy, I just saw the last name mentioned and didn't want to volunteer anyone!

All righty... just let me know what you need done

Can I blame it on having a toddler and 10 month old running around, so by the time I get to the end of a list of posts I've forgotten the first one?

I love the pictures that were posted with the black background and white font. It looks great!

I think we have 4 people willing to help! If someone can break up the breeds into 4 chunks we can start figuring out which breeds we have (or have people working on) and which ones we need and can ask people who aren't watching this thread to try to take pictures and let us whoever is responsible for that breed know that they're working on pictures for that breed.

We'll also need to figure out exactly how we want them formated, but I think the hard part is going to be getting pictures from people and getting them organized.

Would an excel file be helpful for keeping things organized? What we have, what we've been promised, and what we need? If so, I'm happy to put it together. I love excel for database management.

Most important.... don't start getting pictures taken / submitted until you have some good examples to use as the baseline.

Also, organizing may be a good idea and you could use Google Docs worksheet program so multiple people could access and update at the same time.

Would it be OK for us to solicite certain members of the BYC for specific breeds???? Can we PM them once and ask if they would like to participate? This would help us to control quality.
