How to submit calendar entries
Two ways to submit:
1. Website – Mark Longley is dragging us into the 21st century by providing the option to upload onto a website – click on this link (which opens in a new tab) and follow the instructions: https://mdl770.wixsite.com/woottondh2021 .
Do not create your own sign in just click on login and the enter the email address of 1@1.com and use the password Password1 .
If you are submitting entries for the calendar please make sure that you save your photos with a specific file name making use of your own name and month you are submitting for. For example TimD_June.jpg or JacquiK_August.jpg.
Ideally the photos need to be landscape rather than portrait (but we may be able to work round this if there is a really good one!)
Once you have uploaded onto the website please then add the caption for your entries via the Comment facility for each photograph.
If submitting for the Go Kart it does not matter about the file name or caption as this will be a montage.
2. By email – send your entries to Mark Longley at mdl@wapicho.com. Make sure your photographs have been saved using the file name suggested above and include your captions for each photograph in the body of the email.
If the file is too large to email then please use https://www.transfernow.net/ or https://wetransfer.com/
Both are quite self explanatory on how to use.
A quick reminder that the theme for this year is WOOTTON ‘INACTION’ to reflect our time during the pandemic. Some suggestions are included in the original Wootton Calendar 2022 announcement but you can also think about the phrases that have been used:
| Social distancing | Quarantine | Stay Alert, Protect the NHS, Save Lives |
| Hands, Face, Space | Stay at Home | Eat Out to Help Out |
| Key workers | Lockdown | Flattening the curve |
| Pingdemic |
Please do have a look at your photographs and submit any you think are possible candidates for the calendar. It is always great to have a selection to choose from and it always makes the results announcement really exciting.
If you have any problems submitting your photos please contact Mark Longley mdl@wapicho.com and he will provide you with support and guidance.
We look forward to seeing lots of entries 😊
