Step 3: Resizing your image

Resizing your imageFor your initial entry, all images should be jpegs with 800 pixels along the longest edge at 72 ppi. 

This means that your images will need to be resized before being uploaded, as the files from your camera or your scans will be too big. The upload page will not accept images that exceed the maximum size allowed.

When resizing your image, it is very important that you do not save the smaller file over your master original.

Your images should then be renamed before uploading:

If your name is Joe Bloggs and you are entering eight images, then please name them bloggsj01.jpg to bloggsj08.jpg (with no spaces, capital letters or unusual characters). If you decide to enter more images at a later date, you should start the numbering from bloggsj09.jpg

Please make sure that you keep copies of the resized image and, more importantly, that you keep the original, high-resolution image safe. Once the pre-judging stage has been completed, we will contact those on the shortlist for the larger file.
