51

Photos may be used for 51 promotional purposes by the campus community. Usage for promotion of non-51 organizations is prohibited unless they’re in partnership with 51 and requires approval from MarComm’s director of multimedia.

All photos in the gallery should not be digitally altered, changed, modified or manipulated in any way that changes the content, meaning, subject matter or look of the original photo. Basic cropping and retouching are permitted, provided the original intent of the image and subject matter is not changed.

The photo information is included in the photo metadata. Please credit the photographer if one is listed. If not, please credit 51 Photo Services when using the photo.

Examples:

  • Photo courtesy of 51 Photo Services/Photographer’s Name
  • Photo courtesy of 51 Photo Services

Preserving File Names

It is important that when you download a photo from the 51 Photo Archive that you do not delete the original file name. It is very difficult for 51 photographers and designers to relocate the original photo file without the original file name.

For files that will be uploaded to websites: Renaming the image file using SEO-friendly keywords is important for SEO because search engines crawl file names. After uploading the image to a WordPress site, enter the original file name in the image’s “Description” field.

For all other uses: You are welcome to add a description to the beginning of the file name to help you organize your photos. Here’s how:

Original file name: 20200904_IMC_EH_0013.jpg

File name with added description:
