How to Subscribe to DPS – A Community Service Announcement
This is just a quick note to remind readers that we offer a variety of ways to subscribe to and keep in touch with Digital Photography School (DPS). Many of you are new to the site so I wanted to take a moment to give those of you who have just joined us a short rundown on the options to keep up with the latest posts and forum discussions.
The Two Areas of DPS
Let me start by pointing out that we have two areas of DPS”
1. For starters there’s our Blog (which you are currently reading) – our blog is updated daily with photography tips, reviews of products and discussion questions.
2. Then there is our Forum – our forum is where thousands of photography buffs (and beginners) go to share photos, ask for critique of their work, share ideas and tips and have fun around the topic of photography.
Blog Subscription Options
We offer three subscription options on the DPS blog:
1. Firstly there’s a daily email update (you get a daily email with the heading and a short excerpt from each new post on the blog).
2. Secondly there’s a weekly newsletter (currently subscribed to by around 20,000 readers) where you get a summary of what’s been happening on the blog and forums each Thursday or Friday.
3. Lastly there’s our RSS feed (currently subscribed to by over 40,000 readers) which is a way to read blogs in a news aggregator or a service like iGoogle.
You can learn more about each of these methods on our subscription page.
Forum Membership
Lastly – I wanted to note that membership of our forum is separate to signing up for our newsletters. A number of readers have been confused by this lately. If you want to be a forum participants just head to the forum’s registration page – read the forum rules and follow the instructions.

I have been eager to join the forums for some time now but need to know some important information before I will do so: what are the terms of use of the site? How can my posts and, especially, pictures be used by DPS?
In particular, there’s this clause in the registration agreement: “By agreeing to these rules you give permission to the owners of this site to use your posts and comments in other sections of this site and the production of other resources – with attribution to you as author.” So if I post a picture you can use that in the production of other resources as long as I’m attributed? Would that include an instructional DVD that you intend to sell for a profit?
I recognize that DPS is intended to be a community site and don’t expect Darren and company to abuse my content, but I would prefer to have that sentiment in writing before signing up. Can we expect a privacy or terms of use agreement any time?
Thanks!

I wish the RSS feed had full posts instead of snippets. It’s the only feed I subscribe to that does that. I would read a lot more if I could read the whole post every time.

I belong to the forum and I am also signed up for the weekly newsletter – the problem is, I have not received the weekly newsletter for months. Is it still there and going out? I have tried to re-sign up and it always tells me that I am already signed up for it….I just never get one. Any ideas as to what could be wrong????
