Submitting a photo slideshow to Associated Content, an online content producing website sustained by thousands of freelance writers. Associated Content is now branching out from strict literary content into the realm of audio and visual. You can easily publish your visual content on Associate Content in the form of a photo slideshow and it will be viewed around the world.

Photo Slideshows are unique because they are featured on all searches on Associated Content. This means that if you search "cookies" on AC's main page, you will not only retrieve thousands of cookie articles and recipes, but photo slideshows will be featured on the right-hand side of the screen. If you submit a photo slideshow to AC, you will most likely get many more people clicking on your content daily than if you were to submit a literary article-which means, you'll make more money! You can also publicize your photo slideshow, as with other content you produce, on your facebook, twitter, and my space accounts so that your friends have easy access to it.

As you can well see, photo slideshows are a great way to reach a wide audience on the web. But how do you actually submit a photo slideshow?

Submitting a photo slideshow on Associated Content is extremely easy, even for the non-computer saavy producers out there. This article will walk you through, step by step, so that you can submit your own photos for viewing!

1. After you create an account with Associated Content you can get right to producing content. You will need to go to the publish section of AC (click on publish in the upper right hand corner of the website). Under create content click the images tab (several tabs over from text. Then click submit next to slideshow template.

2. You'll only have one choice for rights and payment, so go ahead and check the boxes to move on. Unfortunately, you will not get upfront payment for photo slideshows, but you'll probably make up for it in the long-run through increased performance payments.

3. Enter a title and subtitle for your content. The title should be descriptive-"photo guide to making cookies!" or "photos of San Francisco". Save the unique and catchy title for the subtitle. Then submit a short overview of your photos that describes what your photos are of or about.

4. Select the category under which your content fits- whether it be food and wine, or entertainment. Then enter in up to 5 keywords that describe your content or which you plan to use throughout the content itself.

5. Now you'll need to upload photos on the website. Click browse and upload however many photos that you want to feature on your photo slideshow.

6. After you've uploaded photos, and you will want to feature at least 4, you'll need to drag them from imagegallery to slideshow and place them in the order in which you want them to be published. The first photo should be the topmost, and so on, until the bottommost photo is the last.

7. Click the box next to "I have read and agree to the image submission guidelines." And click save and next.

8. Now you'll have to describe the images and enter in the copyright information for each one. If the photos belong to you, simply enter in your name for both copyright and license, write the name of the image, and a description, if you choose. If you are creating a photo slideshow with a recipe, for example, you should write the recipe and other cooking/baking instructions under description. You'll have to keep the description short and sweet.

9. Once you've entered all of the information required, you'll have to hit saveandnext and you'll get a chance to preview the photo slideshow you've created. If all looks good, go ahead and click publish. You can always go back and edit the content if its not to your liking-even after its been published you can edit it.

All in all, a photo slideshow is a great way of getting your photos out there on the web for people to view. If you're an aspiring photographer, or just like taking pictures, let others take a look at your work by submitting it on Associated Content.

    Concise directions. Thank you! Are best dimensions for slideshow images still 470 x 313 pixels as indicated for article images?
    I do agree with Steve. It'd be very helpful to have the metadata from the images populate in those three fields. (sigh)

    Helpful article but I have a question. I spent a lot of time adding over one hundred photos to my gallery. I typed in all the credits, copyrights, and captions so that I could create some slideshows quickly. However, when I created the slideshows those three fields show up blank. Upon looking at the gallery all the info is still there. Help???
