Re: Question about Images

Hi Celeste. Thanks for your response. It was the French culture and lifestyle request. Yes, it could just be a stock guideline. I think I will give the client a link or two as you suggest. I just didn't want the lack of a photo to put me out of the running for this request. The guidelines ask for Ga...

Question about Images

I've written an article for a public request and am about to submit it. There was a downloadable Writers Style Guide pdf at the bottom of the request. At the bottom of the guide, it said: "IMAGES Must have a resolution of 300dpi and no less Please include a caption and any copyright details and...

Re: Question about original content

Re: Using Old Articles

Thanks for the reply, Jade. The vast majority of what I offer will be brand new, but these two articles from my abandoned blog should not be wasted. I have only a few at Helium that are worth re-doing because the others were not evergreen. I just didn't want to get into any trouble by misunderstandi...

Using Old Articles

I need some information about articles we submit. I created a blog a few years back, added two blog posts and then moved off in another direction. The blog and its two posts have just sat there since. Today I deleted the two posts and saved them in Word docs. My question is this: Since I already put...
