Who's EXCITED?There's nothing like a PPOC Image Competition to kickstart our August creativity. It's time to really buckle down and get your images together for our 3rd quarter PPOC Image Competition!

New Electronic Image Definitions (found HERE on our website):

The purpose of this competition is to allow the entrant to demonstrate their electronic imaging skill and expertise. Entries will be judged for digital, artistic and technical proficiency. Entries must have been sourced, composited, manipulated and/or produced by digital means.

1. Any entry that has been reproduced from an existing photograph, portrait, graphic or any other artwork produced by another person must be accompanied by permission from that maker and pasted on the back of the entry. If an entry, in the good-faith opinion of the Photographic Exhibition Committee, violates copyright, trademark or any other applicable law, that entry shall be disqualified.

2. Entries in this category shall include any subject. Entries may also include guide images.

3. If an entry includes guide images, they must be included on the submitted digital canvas.

4. Digital entries may be any shape with the longest dimension being 4,000 pixels. A horizontal canvas format is suggested if guide images are included. Each file must contain an embedded color profile of either sRGB or Adobe RGB1998, and it must be saved at a JPEG quality setting of 10. Total file size should not exceed 3.5 MB.

The same rules regarding maker and image apply as set forth in image competition rules posted on our site www.ppoccalifornia.org. Follow all file specifications listed below or your entry will not be accepted for the upcoming competition.
