| 1. |
How many photos can I submit? |
|
As many as you want. Send each photo in a seperate e-mail. |
| 2. |
Do you accept nondigital photographs? |
|
Due to the volume of submissions we receive, we are unable to accept nondigital photographs submitted by mail. |
| 3. |
Is there a size limit to the photographs? |
|
Photographs should be no smaller than 1 MB (megabytes) or 1,024 KB (kilobytes) or larger than 8 MB. |
| 4. |
Why do you specify photo size in MB (megabytes) and KB (kilobytes) instead of inches? |
|
This is important to us because we want to make sure the photo is the best quality for reproducing on a publication cover. |
| 5. |
I don't know how many MB (megabytes) or KB (kilobytes) my photo is — how can I determine this? |
|
If you are having trouble identifying the size of your photo in MB or KB, try attaching it to an e-mail. Once it is attached, the size of the photo usually appears as a number after the name of the photo like this: Desert Landscape.jpg 521KB. If that doesn't work, resize your image so that it is no smaller than 8"x10" at 300 pixels/inch. This will most likely be larger than 1 MB or 1,024 KB and should be fine to e-mail to us. |
