Uploading created elements, etc. to gallery

[Ted]

Hello all!

Well, I'm proud to say I made my first digital paper! :)

*waits for uproarious applause to die down*

*still waits*

Okay...thank you. *bow*

It's nothing special... but it's kind of cool... and I'm kind of excited. :)

My questions are:

1. What format do I want to save this (or any element) as? .PNG? .PSD? .JPG? .GIF?

2. If I want to upload it to the library... how do I do that? I know if I save it as a normal 12 x 12 paper with 300 resolution, it's going to be TOO huge for the gallery. But I'd like to offer it for others to use if they'd like. :)

2b. Or is there a website I can upload files where people can download it, regardless of file size?

3. Any other question I may have forgotten to ask goes here!

Please help! :)

Thanks! :)
Ted

Oops! Okay, I see the requirements to upload kits and such...

But at 3600 x 3600 pixels...at 300 ppi resolution... even compressed to 7 is somewhat large... as a JPG.

What am I doing wrong? :)

Unfortunately we request that our galleries not be used in these manners (it's in the site terms of use here: http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/faq.php?faq=vb_faq#faq_terms (under gallery)

However, we happily have a feature on the site where you can submit your kit for possible addition to our Members Download area. You can read about that here:

Thanks for answering, Stacy. :)

Question: Does it have to be a kit of miscellaneous items?

Or if I wanted to create a digital "pad of paper" kit... could that be used? Seeing as I'm a beginner, I'm afraid I couldn't go beyond that without some MAJOR lessons! *laugh* :)

I wasn't sure if it had to be X number of paper, X number of tags, X number of buttons, etc. :)

Thanks for any help/advice. :)
