![]() HI Fizzydog would love to have the template : thanks : downloaded the software for free picture will have to spend some time on it thanks Deleting the free software I was using as your document does the job much better and quicker. The document is 1st class and will be used right away. I have tried all of the freebie software but having been caught out with viruses in the past I will only used software we purchase under license now and as this works and is also free you could always give it a goĪlso we have attached the sheet to our Inventory/Check Out templates so its always there, just need to add the photos at the end of typing the document If anyone would like a copy of the “Photo sheet” as we call it I am more that happy to send it across by email or upload here. ![]() ![]() We are now so adept at doing it that we insert 5 or 10 at a time by holding down the control key and clicking each photo you wish to insert then just moving them into the next space in the grid. This seems to more than satisfy my clients especially when I explain they can have the photos on disk at any point in the future should they need them. Either double click on the photo you want to insert or click the photo and hit insert and it will insert your photo for you to the size of the grid. You click in the first larger space and then click on insert from your top task bar then select picture it will take you to the picture folder on your computer where you have already uploaded your photos from your digital camera. I have a Microsoft Word template that I use which is basically a grid of 5 across and 8 down with a space to above to type in the room name. Takes a bit of work to understand but saves a good hour or so. I’ve really resisted photos too but being asked more and more. HI Pattieb I would have like to have been at the meeting unfortunately I could not BUT would love to know his comments about the signed photos and even signed inventories and the TDS views generally on this and the photos if they cannot be used in dispute?Īlso if any one knows a good software for down loading so that they can be resized captions etc Still no harm in dotting I’s and crossing T’s I guess. the TDS view on this seems to differ from what our agents would like us to believe. If you weren’t there you should have been, he was very interesting – especially his comments about signed photos and even signed inventories. There is no real need to take hundreds of photos of every little thing – it is the written word that counts, as confirmed by the TDS rep who attended our recent AGM. Is it still true that digital photos cannot be used in a dispute? (manipluation etc…) as thats the excuse I generally use.įor new inventories we take general room shots, inside of ovens, gardens and keys – that’s about it! I draw the line at photographing meters as if the client cant trust me to read numbers we are all in trouble…. It doubles typing up time and effectively reduces profitability by a chunk, as no-one wants to pay extra for it. Any advice, thoughts would be appreciated.īeen resisting this for a while, time taking them isnt a problem, its the uploading and formatting into the make is the problem. If I have to start including photo’s I will need to push up my prices – any thoughts? What do others do? I am trying to push my agents gently towards electonic copies only, but I have some die hards who want 3 bound copies of each inventory. ![]() As we are in a recession, I have not put my prices up in two years although the cost of everything has gone up. It has not risen as a request from my agents as yet, but I have avoided it thus far for cost reasons. Personally I take lot of photographs but don’t put them in the inventory yet. Do you charge extra to cover the costs of printing all the photo’s? Prue – Since adding on all the photos, the cost of your ink must have gone up considerably. I have found I have always add photos at check in to the inventory : the agents now seem to require everything photographed : even close up of the shower heads : it can be a lot of photos : and it does take time to re size etc : does any one know of a good software / programmer to format the pictures separately with captions with out having to inset each one : I at the moment click on the photo and reduce it so I have approx 6 per page? ![]()
