  • Open, level, crop and adjust your image as appropriate. You may need to adjust the longest side of your image to between 1920 pixels (smallest) and 4600px (largest). 
  • Save your image(s) for later retrieval. 
  • Image sizing assistance is available before May 10, 2018.

  • If you inadvertently click the wrong trashcan button, you will be given a warning and asked if you wish to continue. Select Cancel. 
    • To re-enter a deleted submission, you will need to contact the Exhibition Coordinator to avoid being charged another entry fee. 
 
?Note: If you think you may struggle with either the online entry process and/or need image preparation assistance, we have a team ready to help! However, your deadline comes a week early.
