Pre-Submission Checklist

Before You Submit Your Images…

• Are you entering in the proper Division?

• Are your images entered in the proper Category? Remember, an image may fit into more than one Category and the photographer's selection is final.

• Have you entered the metadata on each of your images?

• Have you given each of your images a title? The title in your metadata MUST match the title you enter in the submission software.

• Have you verified that your name (i.e. watermark) does not appear on the front of your image(s)?

• If you are submitting for more than one photographer (i.e. a teacher submitting for more than one Youth photographer), have you submitted them in different sessions? Please do not combine multiple photographers in a submission session. Back completely out of the web page, and start from scratch. The email address can be the same, but the first and/or last names must be different for each entrant.

• Review your submissions carefully. Once submitted, no changes/substitutions will be allowed. Submitting additional images is OK.

• Images should be JPG files and no larger than 2000 pixels on the long side. (That’s 2000 pixels wide and/or 2000 pixels high).

• (TIP) Make sure that the long side of your entry is 2000 pixels. You don’t want to enter a small image that won’t fill the judge’s screen.
