BTO Calendar Contest

|
Resolution: Minimum 300 dpi when resized to 8 X
10-inches
Format: .JPG or .JPEG.
Acceptable media: All types of CDs, DVDs, 100MB or 250MB Zip disks
Remember: An image that looks great on your monitor at
72dpi will print like a mosaic-tiled floor when enlarged. Please keep in mind that if you take a
low-resolution digital photo and "size it up", it will become "pixelated" or grainy and therefore will be
unusable. If you digital image is not used on the grounds that it isn't of a high enough resolution,
please understand this is not a matter of taste or opinion, it's a technical fact. Photos embedded in a
Microsoft Word file won't work, they must be separate from the document.
Please burn to a CD or DVD, or copy to a Zip disk and mail to:
