Rules for Preparing Digital Images for Competition

 

When you wish to enter a Club digital competition, please follow the rules below for sizing and labeling your image files.

First, you may submit up to 4 images for each digital category.

Maximum image size is 1024x768 pixels.   Size your image so that in the horizontal direction the maximum number of pixels is 1024. In the vertical direction, the maximum number of pixels is 768. For example, an image that is 1024 x 740 is acceptable, but one that is 1024 by 790 is not. The latter would have to be resized so that the vertical is no larger than 768. The preferred file type is jpg (but tif is acceptable). The color space should be sRGB.

Filename
The image file should be labeled as follows:  S_J_N_T.jpg where
     S is the subject category letter (for example A, B or C)
     J is the Image number (starting at 1, and increasing sequentially for the number of images you have entered
       in the specific category).
     N is your competition number (for example, 37, 63, 03, 99)
     T is the title of the image, using no spaces, using upper case for first letter of each word, using lowercase for all
       other letters (here are some examples of Titles:  AllertonBark, LamarBridge, ARiverRunsThrough).

     Note: each identifier (S, J, N, T) is immediately followed by an underscore character.

In a recent competition, competition categories were A:  Diagonals;  B:  People;  C:  Creative/Contemporary.  Here are some examples:

     If I enter three images in Diagonals (category A). four images in People (category B), and two images in Creative/Contemporary (category C), then my image files would be labeled as follows:
        A_1_37_SaltForkReflection.jpg
        A_2_37_RainbowArches.jpg
        A_3_37_OverandUnder.jpg
        B_1_37_UglyMug.jpg
        B_2_37_BackOff.tif
        B_3_37_GimmeSomeRoom.jpg
        B_4_37_TooClose.jpg
        C_1_37_Boo.jpg
        C_2_37_InterstateStreaks.jpg
