NJFCC PICTORIAL
PROJECTED IMAGES
As of the 2006-2007 season the NJFCC
Pictorial Slide Division is opening all of the competitions to both
slide and digital entries.
All Pictorial entries, whether slides or
digital files, will be referred to as "images".
- For the Interclub Competitions (Fall and
Spring) each club will be allowed to enter 18 images max
of 3 per maker. Each maker may submit all digital files, all
slides, or some of each.
- Tops in NJ and Travel Competition will
continue to allow unlimited per club entries; with a max of 1 per maker
for Tops (slide or digital) and up to 3 per maker (slide, digital, or
both) for Travel. Please refer to Housekeeping below for Travel
guidelines (or the Competition Flyer on the NJFCC website).
- Clubs entering digital image entries
must mail a CD of your entries to the image chair with the entry form
and fee, as with previous slide submissions. All entries must be
submitted by the club's Pictorial Image Chair. The chairperson will not
be accepting digital images via e-mail
- Digital
Requirements:
A: File Size: longest edge must equal 768 pixels
B: Resolution: approximately 102 ppi (see file size)
C: Save as Format: TIFF or JPG
D: Description: SRGB color space or profile
- In Photoshop:
E: Constrain proportions checked
F: Resample Images Bicubic checked
G: no Alpha Channels; ICC Profile checked; no Image Compression; IBM PC
byte order
Note: The following info is intended
for the MCC Image chairperson
The entry forms are available in
Electronic Format on the NJFCC website:
http://www.njfcc.org/competitions.htm - see "Pictorial Slides Entry
Blank" (a paper copy will be mailed to any club that does not have
access to e-mail)
o Only one entry form (no additional copies required) should be
included with your submissions. Preferred method is to complete the
form in Word (more legible), print and mail with your slides and/or
image CD's.
o Also, please be kind and put each individual's entries in
succession on the form (i.e., do not mix them up throughout the entry
form) they will be re-sorted when they are set up for the
competition; 2 slides from the same maker will never be viewed in
succession in a competition (this makes it easier for me to check the
max number of entries per maker).
o As always, please do not forget to include proper postage and a
return package so I can return your slides. NOTE: If your club
is submitting digital only, the chair should mail the CD, with the
entry form, and fee, but only include a SASE (business size) so the
ribbons can be mailed back. In the event that your club does not
receive any ribbons for that competition, I will retain the envelope
for the next competition (you will not have to send another SASE for
the next competition).
´ Fee for entering each of the Pictorial Slides competition are
the same as the previous year: $7.00 per competition
´ Still No Cross-Pollination! J If a slide and/or print
was submitted in one form of competition, it can not be re-submitted in
another; e.g. if entered in a NJFCC Nature slide competition, it (or a
close duplication of it) can not be resubmitted into the Pictorial (nor
reprinted for a Print competition) competition. This will be on the
honor-system, but if it should be brought to our attention, we will
have to disqualify the entry / award.
´ If you have any questions regarding the new competitions,
please do not hesitate to drop me a line or call.
