Entries: One piece of jewelry or jewelry set or suite per entry. Each

Transparencies other than slides, and images scanned onto acetate sheets are not
acceptable. You may submit as many entries as you wish, but each entry must be
accompanied by its own entry form
and fee of $25.
To enter:
First, fill out the online entry form
Then:
1. Print a paper copy of your completed online entry and enclose it with a print
of the submitted image (from the same negative or digital file) showing the finished
jewelry.
2. A slide or photographic print should show your entry in its entirety on
a simple background. You may include an optional second image showing a closeup
but no more than two images per entry will be judged. Please label slides and
prints with the division number and an arrow pointing up to indicate viewing direction,
your name, and photo credits.
3. For digital images, enclose a clearly labeled Mac/PC formatted CD showing
your entry in its entirety on a simple background. As above, an optional closeup
will also be accepted.
TWO DIGITAL FILES OF EACH ENTRY MUST BE SUPPLIED!
* The first copy of the image must be a 300 DPI tiff or jpeg format file; a flattened
image, and 6 to 8 inches on the longest side. This will be used for print reproduction
of the winners.
* The second copy of the image must be a 72 DPI jpeg file, 6 to 8 inches on the
longest side. This will be used for the web site and judging.
A separate caption information .txt file should also be included on the CD and
should include name, division number and subdivision number and photo credits.
4. The $25 entry fee paid by check, or complete credit card payment information
should be enclosed for each entry. If you paid online when submitting, please
include that information as well.
Multiple entries may be submitted together in one mailer but each entry should
be contained within its own interior envelope, and on separate CDs if digital.
Please do not staple slides to entry forms. Multiple fees may be paid with a single
check, but please do not include any other fees such as subscription renewals
in that check. Make checks payable to Lapidary Journal Jewelry Artist.
Both online and mailed entry forms and enclosures
must be received by April 1, 2010 (a postmark will not suffice). For
confirmation of receipt of your entry, please send it via registered mail or carrier
that will confirm receipt; Lapidary Journal Jewelry Artist will not. Please
keep copies of all entry forms and slides, as these will not be returned.
First and Second Place Winners will be awarded in each division. There
will also be a Best of Competition award. Winners will be notified individually.
Winners will be notified individually by mail or e-mail. Winners may also be published
in Lapidary Journal Jewelry Artist’s Design Issue, and may be requested for new photography.
Therefore, although not required, keeping entry pieces available where possible
would be appreciated.
