GERLACH PHOTO UPLOAD INSTRUCTIONS
The Walter Gerlach Livestock Show is now ready to start accepting picture uploads for the online auction website. Each student needs to take a picture with their animal in the format shown in the attachments below. If you have multiple animals you need to have a picture with each one as you will upload a picture of both.
Once you have your picture it will need to be uploaded to the online entry website using the instructions provided in the ppt attached below.
IF YOU ARE A SENIOR: You need to send your photos to wgls1974@gmail.com so that a Senior Banner can be edited onto your picture.
The absolute deadline is 1/5/21 if you do not upload your pictures they will not be displayed for buyers to see when they browse the online auction site.
