Requirements for Entering an Image File for Image Critique/Enhancement (ICE)

Note: only SEWPPA members may submit images for ICE.

1) Members may furnish up to four (4) image files via the internet (preferred) before the meeting, or at the meeting with a USB removable drive. Please note that you may include re-worked image files from a previous ICE submission, but these would be considered part of your four (4) entries. Files should be Quality 10 JPGs. No TIFs or layered PSDs.

2) Image files should be full size (whatever size that came out of your camera). This is because cropping may be needed, and zooming in may be required to see if the image is sharp. It is suggested to have no less than a pixel count of about 2000×2500. Resolution (ppi) does not matter.

3) Image files should be in sRGB color space. If they are not, they will be converted to sRGB when they are opened in the facilitator’s Photoshop. Send image files to Fuzzy Duenkel at fuzzy@duenkel.com

4) Please supply image files numbered 1 through 4 followed by the image title. Example: 1_Image Title.jpg, 2_Image Title.jpg, 3_Image Title.jpg, and 4_Image Title.jpg. These should be inserted in a folder with the maker’s name. Example: Jane Doe. The facilitator will begin with all the #1 image files first, then AS TIME ALLOWS, all the #2?s, etc.

Example:
1_Specified Category Image Title.jpg, 2_Specified Category Image Title.jpg, 3_Unspecified Category Image Title.jpg, and 4_Unspecified Category Image Title.jpg. These should be inserted in a folder with the maker’s name. Example: Jane Doe. The facilitator will begin will all the Specified Category image files first. Then, AS TIME ALLOWS, all the #1 entries in the Unspecified Category will be critiqued, then all the #2 entries, and so on.

NOTE: YOUR IMAGE FILES MUST BE NUMBERED AS INSTRUCTED ABOVE, OR THEY WILL ALL BE CONSIDERED #4’s AND CRITIQUED ONLY IF TIME ALLOWS.
