SECTIONS
Members can enter up to two images in the 'open' section (any topic of your choice).
Members can also enter up to two images in the 'task' section. The task for each competition is decided by the committee 12 months ahead.
GETTING IMAGES READY FOR COMPETITIONS
Digital images must be processed through 'Entry Maker', which is a software program designed to reduce the file size of your photo to approximately 1 MB.
The program also puts a standard file name format on your image, so they can be sent off to the judges in an orderly fashion. Help with 'Entry Maker' and submitting images for competitions is provided at the 'Special Interest Group' meetings.
ENTRY MAKER SOFTWARE
The 'Entry Maker' software program needs to be downloaded to your computer.
Please note that Entry Maker is not compatible with Apple computers.
HOW TO SUBMIT IMAGES FROM AN APPLE PC
If you only have Apple pc's or laptops, you can still easily process your images by reducing them to 1 MB or less.
