Feature Article and Review Submissions:
We encourage everyone to help us make this site
successful by contributing pictures, reviews and providing feedback to
help improve it. Manufacturer submitted reviews are not allowed, but previews
of upcoming items can be posted. Submissions need not be exclusive, anything
you send in is yours unless you have been compensated for it. Readers are
encouraged to share their photo's with others provided they are the same
photo's they sent in and have not been modified by ModelWarships.com. Please
do not take files and photo's modified by ModelWarships.com without first
obtaining permission. Also please do not send in someone elses copyrighted
photo's
Links:
Links within the links section are provided at
no charge as long as the site is also willing to include a link back to
ModelWarships.com. If you know of any sites that we have left off of the
links section, please let us know by sending an email to the editor.
Modelers Gallery info:
A Gallery has been added for readers to send
in pictures of your creations. Each person gets a personal page in the
gallery where all their pictures on the site will be linked. If you want
your email or weblink displayed it will be on this page only. Please make
sure you include your name and the name of the ship included in your
pictures. Also include the manufacturer and scale. Attach your pictures to
an email by clicking the following link
Submissions@modelwarships.com.
When you click that link please don't change the subject as this will allow
your message to bypass our spam filters. Please keep submissions to one subject per
email. Submissions should have no more than 30 images total,
and preferably around 20. Please, do not use Google's Picasa to submit your images,
as it reduces the images down in size and quality and makes them unsuitable. Allow 2-4 weeks for
your submission to appear before inquiry; do not simply re-submit, as that will delay
the processing of your submission even more.
Photo tips: The preferred format is JPEG (.jpg or .jpe), but we can accept GIF, or any other common image format. I can also scan your hard copy prints to create digital copies if you do not have that ability. Most images will be resized and optimized for the web. I will generally crop images down to the subject, and color correct if possible; try to submit the largest, unedited images possible. It is best to name your photo's with simple names without using spaces. If a space is needed then using a dash ( - ) or underscore ( _ ) is best. Please indicate whether you wish to have your email displayed or not. If not mentioned I will leave it off the page.
Example of image names that work best for us are:
| MyShipPictures-01.jgp
MyShipPictures-02.jgp MyShipPictures-03.jgp MyShipPictures-04.jgp |
Or | Bismarck_01.jpg
Bismarck_02.jpg Bismarck_03.jpg Bismarck_04.jpg |
Modeling Questions:
Questions about modeling or articles that appear here can be directed
to either the author or myself, or posted on the message
board. I would prefer that your general questions be posted on the
message board as I am now getting quite a bit of email and frequently get
delayed in replying to it all. Besides the board is frequented by some
of the best modelers in the hobby so you will probably get a better answer
there.
Advertiser info:
Do you have a product that you would like to see reviewed on ModelWarships.com?
We have three types of reviews that we do on this site. The first is an
"in the box" review that shows what the product includes. Products are
scanned and/or photographed with descriptions of the items. Reviews are
done in the next issue published after receiving your submission. A more
thorough review can be done on products that relate to other current
or future reviews and features. Finally a full buildup review covers the
complete building process, usually beginning with the "in the box" review
and progressing from kit preparation to detailing, painting and final display
of the kit. So if you have a related product to be reviewed please
contact Timothy Dike for shipping address and details.
ModelWarships.com
also offers Banner space on it's main page for Warship and Ship History
related sites and services. See the Ad page for
