DIGITAL PROJECTED IMAGES
1. Entries are to be supplied to the Competition Secretary one week prior to the competition. If not submitted at the previous Society meeting, then special arrangements for delivery and receipt of work may be made entirely at the discretion of the Competition Secretary. 2. Entries may only be submitted on CD or USB memory stick. We may not be able to read CD's that are 'open' or on rewritable media, though most tried so far have been OK.
FILE PREPARATION
The particular requirements of digital projection are that you should prepare your work as follows: a) Images must be sized exactly for the projector’s native resolution - currently 1400 x 1050 pixels (width / height) If one image dimension is smaller than the native resolution, then the photographer must provide a background canvas to meet the size requirements (read the guide on how to prepare your images for the projected image competition for hints on how to do this). b) Images should be supplied in JPEG (*.jpg) format, non-interlaced.
FILE NAMING It helps if each picture file is named in a standard formula, as follows We require the following format: First letter for class, i.e. 'O' (= Open) or 'S' (= Set) The title e.g. 'PrettyPicture' Your name e.g. 'JoeBloggs'
each separated by an underscore _ So a typical file might end up being Saved As: O_PrettyPicture_JoeBloggs.jpg
The filename must contain only alphabetical letters and numbers from 0 to 9. Avoid using any 'system' characters. No spaces, punctuation or DOS control characters including *, ?, !, &, /, \, |, ‘, ', or ., should be used. The whole filename must be less than 128 characters long.
