Have a Photo to Share? Help Us Fill Our Neighborhood Gallery

We've added some new features to Patch this week and encourage you to try them out.

Front and center is a new "Neighborhood Gallery" button that invites you to share your photos with Royal Oak Patch readers in a quick and easy way.

We all know there is a lot happening in Royal Oak — school, church, and community events fill our planner. Many times it is impossible for us to attend everything that happens in our very dynamic city.

That's where the new Neighborhood Gallery comes in. We've made it ridiculously easy for you to bypass our often-crowded inboxes and upload photos onto Patch yourself.

Just click on the "Gallery" tab at the top of any page and you'll see photos submitted by users like yourself. Click "upload photos and videos" and find your photos on your own computer. After you upload them, write a caption to tell us what's happening.

Send an email to judy.davids@patch.com to let us know that you added a photo to the gallery — and let us know what you think of the process.

The gallery will be prominently featured on all article pages, so all of Patch will see your news!
