Upload Media

Media are transmitted to Safeguard Properties through the use of the Media Uploader. Upon beginning an order, SafeView - Preserve will require that media be uploaded. These media can then be assigned to completed work and/or bids within the update.

Click the Upload Media link.

Many categories within SafeView - Preserve now require a "during” photo in addition to the before and after photos required in the past.
The SafeView - Preserve Media Uploader window will appear.

If you number your media, the Media Uploader will not sort them in numerical order (1,22, 111). Instead they will sort alphabetically (1, 111, 22).

If this causes you difficulty locating your files in the Media Uploader, we recommend you name your files with letters instead of numbers (i.e. frontA, frontB,etc.).

Using the Navigation Tree on the left, click on the folder or drive containing the files to be uploaded to Safeguard. The files contained in the chosen folder will display on the right side of the Media Uploader window.
While pressing the [Ctrl] button, click the media to be transmitted to Safeguard Properties. Each selected media item will highlight in blue to indicate it has been chosen.
Media which appear upside down or sideways can be rotated by clicking on the Rotate icon located at the bottom of each media item. This must be done prior to uploading the media to Safeguard Properties.

Tip: You can rotate all media at the same time by clicking the Select All button and then using the Rotate icon on any of the selected media.

If you want to add every media item in the selected folder to the upload queue, click the Add All button.
You can remove a media item from the upload queue by clicking on the X in the upper right hand corner of the media.
Once you have the media you want to upload added to the queue, click on the Upload Media button.
Select OK from the pop-up box to confirm the quantity of media to be uploaded.
The upload files window will appear and the green bar will track the progress of the upload until finished. The box will close upon completion of the upload.
Click the next button to proceed to update the order. (You do not have to wait for the media to finish uploading before you click the Next. Button. The media will appear in the gallery once they have completed uploading.
