Monochrome is defined as having no more than two colors, monochrome plus one other color.
Titles will not be read aloud during judging. Please limit titles to 35 characters including spaces and punctuation. The Entry Form software will clip any excess characters resulting in an incomplete title that could cause you problems when applying for a star rating.
Using sRGB color space for your color .jpg files is recommended as it will provide better quality under the projection conditions used for judging the exhibition and producing the exhibition show.
Maximum digital image width (horizontal) is 1024 pixels. Maximum digital image height (vertical) is 768 pixels.
Images larger in either dimension will be rejected by the entry software.
Smaller images are acceptable but place you at a disadvantage.
Save your .jpg images using the maximum image quality of 9 and no large than 850k.
You do not have to follow any naming convention for your .jpg files when you enter. The on-line entry form will properly rename your files to meet the needs of our exhibition software.
We recommend saving your .jpg images in a special folder on your computer using the image title as the file name. That will make it easier to pick the correct image when using the Entry Form browser to attach your images.
All digital files must be submitted On-Line using the Digital Entry Form. After you have carefully read these "information and instructions", and after double checking to make sure your files are no larger than 1024 pixels wide and no larger than 768 pixels high, click here to fill out the Digital Entry Form, attach your files and submit them. Digital entries on CD via postal mail will not be accepted.
After you submit your electronic entry, you will receive an email with your name, address, email, etc. plus the image titles you typed in. Please review and if you made any errors, please contact the Digital Chairman by clicking bembrit@bellsouth.net to resolve.
