| So I have a project due on Thursday for sociology, and my teacher is really anal retentive about APA format (even my 200 level psych classes weren't as bad) but the problem is I have to cite 50+ images in apa format.
I have the URL's but most of them just lead to websites that posted them with no information about who took the photo or when. A lot of it is just stock images, photos from magazines and photo shoots. I don't have time to go back and redo all the photos so PLEASE HELP! |

| I found this information.... - Spoiler:
Basic Format for an Electronic Image
Author (Role of Author). (Year image was created). Title of work [Type of work], Retrieved Month Day, Year, from: URL (address of website)
Basic Format for an Electronic Image (No Author)
Title of work [Type of work]. (Year image was created). Retrieved Month Day, Year, from: URL (address of website)
Basic Format for an Electronic Image (No Author, No Title, No Date)
Many images found on the Web are of this category, but you should still look for this missing information: try clicking on the image, and/or looking at the bottom of the image.
[Subject and type of work]. Retrieved Month Day, Year, from: URL (address of website)

I think the bottom with no author, ect. would be best...but what do they mean by subject and type of work? |

| maybe subject you would be like "Portrait" or something and type of work "photograph" and say if it were a drawing Subject "Illustrated cartoon" and type of work "Drawing"
maybe? Not 100% sure, haven't had to do this stuff in a long time. x-X |

| Thanks guys, I wouldn't be so annoyed with my teacher if this weren't a 101 class that most people have to take -_-. We are suppose to just be learning this stuff, she should be a little more lenient.... Plus my Psych 101 class we only had to write one paper in APA format! >  Well the semester is almost over so soon I won't have to worry. Plus, I'm pretty sure I'll get a decent grade anyway...I have an A in there now, so if I just hand her a 3 page paper of url's I'll be like... "I'm not claiming any of these are mine, and this is the best I could do..." url's are better than absolutely nothing. |

| Be sure to double-check what the citation websites give you, because those websites often can't deal with the nit-picky details, especially if the nit-picky details don't deal with a standard situation. If you are truly worried about the right formatting, I'd suggest scheduling a time to go over the works cited/references with your professor. Even if the deadline has already passed, the information could be useful in the future. (Also, some universities have writing centers or writing tutors available. You should check to see if your university offers such a resource). |
