Creative is defined as "Altered Reality". Judges will be asked to judge the photographs for overall photographic quality and interest, not the amount of manipulation required to achieve the effect.

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.
Using sRGB color space for your .jpg files is recommended as it will provide better quality under the projection conditions used for judging the exhibition and producing the exhibition show.
Each stereo image should consist of two (2) individual .jpg image files: One Left image and one Right image. Maximum image width (horizontal) of each individual image file should not exceed 512 pixels, resulting in a maximum width (horizontal) of 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 could place you at a disadvantage. Files should be saved at 72 ppi. We recommend you save your .jpg images using the maximum image quality.
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 and the image position (left or right) as the file name. That will make it easier to pick the correct image when using the Entry Form browser to attach your images.
