Slide and Digital Image Competitions

Slide and Digital Image Competition Rules

  • A maximum of three slides or digital images may be entered on each of the slide competition nights.
  • One slide or digital image can be entered in each of three categories:
    "Category 1" is for images that are to be judged and critiqued.
    "Category 2" is for images that are only to be judged, not critiqued.
    "Category 3" is for images that are only to be judged, not critiqued.
    Note: Category 3 may be excluded if the Competition Chairperson determines too many images are entered for the evening.
  • Two images may be entered in Category 2 if one is not entered in Category 1.
  • Each of the slides must be properly marked with the makers name, image title and thumb spot per the Competition Rules.

The rules for digital submissions are as follows:

  • All scores will be included in the Slide category and will go towards achieving the next honor level.
  • All image submissions are to be in the form of a jpg image.
  • Images shall not exceed 768 x 512 (horizontal or vertical) or a total of 393,216 pixels. File size is not a criterion for entry.
  • Images may be submitted via email to the competition chair (preferred) no later than 24 hours prior to the competition. In addition, images may be brought to the slide competition on Compact Flash, SD, Media Stick, USB flash, 3.5 inch floppy, CD or DVD but must be received no later than 15 minutes prior to the start of the meeting.
  • Images will be put into one of three folders, much the same as the three trays for slides. Images in the first folder will be critiqued and those in folders two and three will be scored only.
  • Naming convention for submittals is as follows:
    • Folder_Title_ Member No._Date (month day year).Extension
      Example:
      • 1_Mt Rainier_188_020105.jpg
