It'll make keeping track of the entries a lot easier. Most programs for managing files and viewing images sort the files alphanumerically. If you ask for the files to be named "FirstName_LastName", then "Barbara_White" will appear on the list before http://calltoenter.blogspot.com/2010/11/sorting-show-entries.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Eric Law)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940022655900008530.post-1994307166420841361Fri, 22 Oct 2010 10:00:00 +00002010-10-22T06:00:01.141-04:00For ArtistsFor GalleriesShow AllI was reading an article the other day about the ethics of digital manipulation of images for juried entries and publications. Where is the ethical line and how much is too much? Some writers suggest that digital manipulation of images is a slippery slope and that any manipulation is too much. Others try to define an acceptable percentage or provide a list of acceptable edits.

Maybe you've had the same question? When an exhibition prospectus asks you to label the image with your name, the title of the piece, and perhaps other information, it is referring to the naming of the digital file.

Several factors determine the size of a JPEG file, and the number of pixels in the image is only one of them. The JPEG format compresses images to reduce the size of the file for easier emailing or storage ... a ten megapixel image can easily be compressed intohttp://calltoenter.blogspot.com/2010/10/jpeg-file-size.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Eric Law)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940022655900008530.post-2406690001857617129Fri, 24 Sep 2010 10:00:00 +00002010-09-24T06:00:05.097-04:00For ArtistsShow AllWhen you photograph your artwork, keep anything that distracts the eye out of the image. You may need to edit the image on your computer to crop out the frame and mat, too. No exceptions ... unless, of course, they are part of the artwork. The only thing you want a juror to see is the artwork itself. Anything else in the image distracts the eye and reduces the visual impact of the artwork.

Certainly desirable, but the requirement has pretty much lost any useful meaning with today's digital cameras. Unless you're publishing a book, the images you receive are more likely to have too much resolution than not enough. The resolution of an image is typically measured in megapixels, or millions of pixels. An http://calltoenter.blogspot.com/2010/09/too-much-resolution.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Eric Law)0
