How to Submit Photos for Elva Marie West

Until such time as a photo "Drag and Drop" function has been added to Cemsearch, here is the way to prepare your photos for inclusion in our database:

• IMPORTANT: FIRST select the person in Cemsearch for whom you want to add a photo, then re-open this help screen.

• You currently have selected Elva Marie West. You can submit photos for her plot's monument(s) or personal photos of just her.

• On your computer, locate the file(s) of the photo(s) you want to submit for Elva Marie West.

• DO NOT make duplicate photos of the same side of a stone for each person shown on it. For example, if husband and wife are both shown on one stone image, DO NOT make two copies of this image; only one is required.

• For MONUMENT Pictures, do the following:
• Copy this code: CAMBRNRS5; (MUST include the semicolon)
• Rename the monument files you previously located by pasting this code as a prefix to each filename.
• IMPORTANT: The code CAMBRNRS5; is SPECIFIC to ALL people on this stone or plot.

• For PERSONAL Pictures for JUST this person, do the following:
• Copy this code: CAMBRNRS5^1; (MUST include the semicolon)
• Rename the personal files you previously located by pasting this code as a prefix to each filename.
• IMPORTANT: The code CAMBRNRS5^1; is SPECIFIC to Elva Marie West and your picture(s) prefixed with this code will appear ONLY for her.

• HINT: for convenience, these codes also appear below the Born/Died dates where you can click on them to automatically copy them.

• ATTACH photos (full size; if you can, limit to about 1-2 megabytes in size) with the prefixed filename to an email and send to: helpus@cemsearch.ca.

• If you have further details that you would like included in the "Notes" section, add them to the email as well.
