dp+ guidelines to non-photo posts to the group wall

Digital Photography Plus welcomes posts other than photos to our group wall.


This way, non-photographer members who are also connected to the photo industry (example photo equipment and gadget suppliers, galleries, photo labs, make-up artists, models, events planners, seminar and workshop organizers, etc.) get to announce their stuff on the group wall. It is a privilege we extend to our group members that should not be abused.


Here's dp+' guidelines to all announcements and ad-like posts:


1. As a courtesy to all other group members who also want to show their stuff - please DO NOT flood the group wall with announcement and advertisement-like posts.


2. Try to limit your postings so you won't monopolize the wall.


3. One post is enough for one message. Do not post the same stuff all over again in either group wall or as a comment to photo posts. There are many ways for your information to get through. You may post it with a photograph or try a different angle to your announcement.


4. Another tip is, if you want your post to get on top of the group wall feed, you can invite friends to join the group so they can comment on your post. Any comment gets your posted stuff on top of the group wall.


5. Announcements and advertisement like-post can only be shared on our group wall. Here is the link to our group wall:

Please DO NOT post them on our official FB site with this link:

A general guideline to all posts NOT authored by the one posting: PLEASE CREDIT YOUR SOURCE. When sharing tips and interesting stories or links, please make sure that it is properly attributed. In the same manner that we want to be always credited when our photos are used by other people, please extend the same courtesy when we use other people's intellectual properties in our posts. 


At dp+ we treat each other as brothers and sisters in photography, simple courtesy and politeness will go far in terms of improving our relationship with everyone and towards achieving our personal goals.
