Brian H. has graciously accepted the challenge of pulling together a slide show for our upcoming AGM. We welcome your photos to celebrate our club’s outstanding 2018 cycling season. And if you like, add some from previous years!
Below is Brian’s invitation and detailed instructions to help you share.
I have been charged with the task of compiling GFW photographs for a slide show at the upcoming AGM. So, do you have photographs that you would like to add to the collection?
- Organize your photographs in to folders. If possible, use separate folders for:
- 2018 CYCLING SEASON
- 2018 OTTAWA TRIP
- PRE-2018 PHOTOS
- Give each folder a suitable name that includes your name. For example,I have labelled my three folders as follows
- 2018_Photos_BrianH
- Ottawa_Trip_BrianH
- PRE-2018_BrianH
- Go to Google Photos (either photos.google.com on your browser or with the Google Photos app. on your phone or iPad).
- You will need to sign out if you are automatically logged in to your own Google account.
- You need to be logged in to gfwphotos@gmail.com using the same password (the one that has to do with eating!) as for the GFW Website.
- Click on ALBUM (left menu bar) and you will see the existing albums (folders) in the image below.
- Drag your folder (which will become an album) over and your photos will automatically load.
- When your photos have finished loading, click on ADD TO ALBUM and choose NEW ALBUM. Give this New Album a title (which will likely be the same as the title you gave the folder), hit the check sign (top left), and you are all done!
- Now, wasn’t that easy?
Note: If you are given the choice of HIGH QUALITY or ORIGINAL SIZE, please choose HIGH QUALITY. We can save an unlimited number of HIGH QUALITY images.

Brian, I’ve uploaded 3 albums to this file.

That’s great, Marshall – so the system actually works 🙂
Now we need to get a few more folks to upload their pics. I know Paul has a whole bunch 🙂

Thank you for sharing your wonderful pictures! I have combined them into two folders (albums) for viewing at tomorrow’s AGM.
GFW_2018_Season contains 202 pictures from this year’s season.
GFW, 2001 to 2017 contains 385 pictures of GFW history!
I used most, but not all, of the shared pictures. I didn’t want to bore people with repetitions 🙂
If you want a pre-AGM preview then login to the Google Photo Drive as directed in the post. You may wish to download some of your favourite images as this is very easy to do!
