Want your picture featured in our Facebook cover photo? Send them to us at [email protected] and be sure to include your name and/or company name and website URL so we can give you credit. All submitted photos will be featured for at least a week (depending on demand).
Update: Please also include a brief quote as to why or how you use and enjoy SurveyorConnect.
First come, first served.
Sorry, no dealers or other advertisers UNLESS you are a current paid advertiser in good standing with us. Even if you are a paid advertiser with us, the picture can't be a blatant product shot. This is mostly intended for surveyors and companies that provide surveying services.
Please note that the image must be of reasonably high resolution so as to fit in the cover photo space, preferably larger so we have room to adjust it to fit. We recommend at least 1000 pixels wide by 400 pixels high. If you simply submit an original photo from your digital camera, chances are it will be plenty large enough for us to make it work. Don't be shy about sending large images.
To give you an idea of how it will look, here's a screenshot:

Will this work??
850 kms NW Adelaide, South Australia, surveying at Coober Pedy Opal mining capital of the world. In the middle of nowhere where many inhabitants live underground as in summer it is too bloody hot! Shady sites a premium as natural trees only exist where water as you can see the area is treeless and great for surveying in winter ....Summer shimmer is so bad that posts become dancing ladies.... Ironically this remote outpost literally has a coordinated cadastre as the township is swamped with coordinated survey marks tied into every plan of division as the township was formally surveyed from 1978 to freehold parcels. Before then it was a frontier township with literally staked claims on government owned land.

I thought photos from "Down Under" would be up-side-down, not leaning to the right?? :-S 😛
Here's a photo of my shovel for you Wendell that looks somewhat like your example cover!
Wendell, check your inbox. Thanks!
Thanks for all the responses! We've got several weeks worth of photos now.
RADU, please send via email, the images uploaded here are resized and are too small.
Mike Berry, thank you for the clarification on the current cover photo -- I found it in my BeerLeg graphics folder but couldn't remember where it came from.
Also, I'm going to update the first post... I would like to get quotes from those who submit photos about how or why they use and enjoy SurveyorConnect or BeerLeg.

Don't see any fall protection in that photo.
Looks fun.
Look a little closer. There is a life line strung across the top of the cap that they are tied to. You can see it if you zoom in.
So that's how ruins get built!

Do you need a facebook account to take a look at the pictures?
I don't have one ... and don't plan on creating one ... where do people find all the time to keep these sites updated all the time?
It looks as more people post pictures here recently, or is it just me thinking so.
Anyway, I like it this way ... let them come!
Christof.

THANKS WENDELL & ANGEL!!!
I guess I'm the first Cover Page picture up there.
As a "Like" page on my home FB page, I recognized the photo right off.
Wendell posted the request "Please also include a brief quote as to why or how you use and enjoy SurveyorConnect." after I had sent in my photo.
Well, Nowhere else can you get the quickest response to a professional, ethical or equipment question or problem you are up facing, offered from the wisdom of the sages from the serious responders, and the wit of the wisacre responses we can appreciate for levity.
I have followed separate arguments/discussions as point/counterpoint discussions and have learned to appreciate the many views from the different responders and to review each for their merits.
I have been surveying 37 years and every day I am a student of the profession.
My creator gave me one mouth and two ears, so I figured many years ago I should listen twice as much as I speak. I am grateful for this forum and appreciate the amount of professional knowledge available.
Thanks again!
