This section contains the photographers portfolio of all images add / uploaded to the wpsurf site.
All images will be displayed to the photographer, including those which are not yet approved.
The photographer can manage all aspects of their portfolio of images from this screen.
As the photographers portfolio grows, the top of this screen enables him to filter which images he wants to see and work with:
Initially all of the portfolio images will be found and displayed, but the photographer may change the selection using any combination of the following and clicking the "Find" button:
A number of columns are displayed in the My Portfolio screen. The list may be sorted by any one of these columns by simply clicking on the column name. A second click will sort it in reverse order on that same column.
Unsold images are only retained on wpsurf for a certain amount of time.
Wpsurf will automatically delete images from the system at its own discretion, especially after having retained them for a period unsold. This period, as with all other reasons for deletion, remains a decision for wpsurf and can vary geographically, depending on sales in that area.

The surfer can then look through them to find any photos of themselves or their friends.The surfer does not need to have had any direct contact with the photographer. Simply searching for the break you were surfing at on a specific date will bring back any photos taken. You can then look through them to find any photos of yourself or your friends.
The most common (and simplest) search will usually be just searching by "where and when".
If you enter a break name (or part of a break name), enter the date you are interested in and click on "Search", you will get back:
The search will only find breaks and images at the map region you are looking at (and anywhere below that region).

Whereas the search below would find all breaks in Ireland with the combination of letters "Peak" in the break's name and all images taken at those breaks on the "31 Jan 2006":
