FAQ re: Rules and Entry Form

  • What is the best way to mount my prints?

    • There is no "best" way. Two common ways are dry-mounting to foam core board you can have done at most craft stores or frame shops, or mounting to mat board or poster board with spray adhesive. For inexpensive mounting, I frequently use a spray adhesive such as 3M Super 77 Multipurpose Adhesive lightly applied to the back of prints, then attach them to poster board (99 cents from Bi-Mart) using a brayer. Trim flush, or bordered, using paper trimmer or razor knife and straight edge. Framing mats are not necessary. 
       

  • If I crop to the minimum 8x10 standard size format the composition of my image suffers. What can I do?

    • DON'T CROP! Rules are not meant to compromise artistic presentation. If you're printing at home, just keep the long side to at least 10 inches. The 8x10 commercial minimum size rule is a guideline to prevent 4x6 and 5x7 snapshot prints that do not lend themselves to Gallery display or judging detail. Note: Salem Costco uses Fuji true photo process equipment to electronically print on real, light-sensitive, chemically-processed Fuji Crystal Archive photo paper in either glossy or lustre finish. Sizes 8x8, 8x10, 8x12, 11x14, 12x12, 12x18. Format your image file size first.
       

  • Why can't I put the title and my name on the front?

    • The required information must be on the back of the entry. All images will be judged anonymously. After the scores are recorded and awards determined, title cards will be made for exhibit display. Individual scores will be given to entrants only, not provided publicly.
       

  • I post my photos online for friends, are they still eligible?

    • Yes. Rule 9 only applies to print publications that have been pre-judged by a photo editor and may be widely recognizable.
