Submitting ILLUSTRATED STORIES to Literotica info

[THROBBS]

It has been a while...and indeed the procedure is not obvious.
(this is different than the illustrations section, which includes comics, but is more focused on images. Illustrated stories, are stories enhanced with illustrations.)

ILLUSTRATION SECTION
ILLUSTRATED STORIES

Illustrated Stories:

I believe I had to e-mail the illustrations as attachments and then include a note to that effect.
1) Attach the text of the story to an email directed to submit@literotica.com. Important: make the subject of the email the same as the title of the story so that we can more easily match your submission to your profile.

2) Go to your Member Profile and "Submit a Story". Fill in the title, description, and category of your story. In the box for the story itself, type "Story Submitted Via Email". Following this procedure will help to get your story online as quickly as possible.



Basic story guidelines:

8. If you have specialty formatting requests, such as the need for bolds or italics in certain parts, PLEASE LET US KNOW in a note at the top of the story. Otherwise, all special formatting will be stripped from the stories before posting.

As I recall this includes the placement of illustrations.

eg:

Blah blah blah story paragraph one. Blah Blah blah blah sex blah blah. All this "blah blah blah. represents your well written and highly erotic story.

{INSERT FILE : my-illustration1-name.jpg HERE}

Blah blah blah story paragraph two. Blah Blah blah blah sex blah blah. This text represents the continuation of your gripping tale.

{INSERT FILE : my-illustration2-name.jpg HERE}

Blah blah blah story paragraph three. Blah Blah blah blah This could be your dramtic conclusion, or, of course you might conclude with an illustration.


* FILE SIZE:
When I submitted illustrated stories, I stuck to the bulletin board limitations:
MAX file size 100MB
MAX horizontal dimension: 800 pixels
MAX Vertical dimension: 600 pixels

(saving as "optimized for web" can reduce file size.)

I can check if the file size parameters are different.

You can submit Illustrated Stories one of three ways:

1) Submit the text in the form, then the images via email (as you stated in your post).

2) Upload a Word .doc with the images place inside where you'd like them to be.

2) If the Word .doc or the images are too large, you can send us the file via our upload - making sure the upload form title field is is the title of your submission - then hit "Submit" on the submission form in your profile (which should contain the story title, description, tags, everything else except the part you uploaded) so we know it's been sent. The link to our upload server is: https://www.mydocsonline.com/scripts...P0063E46e22d8B

We accept .TXT, .RTF, and Word .DOCs. We do not accept .PDFs, .ZIP files, or any other formats.

If anyone has questions they can PM me (Laurel) here:
