<p>Why are there still calls asking for "300 DPI" submissions? And from a prominent publication no less.</p>

[Spearhead]

<p>Why not ask them? Who here would know why they are doing that?</p>

<p>I have come to the conclusion that the contest should go to prints for judging, not digital monitors for this work. Any contest that feels they get to keep everything for their future use should be avoided--and this has been discussed a lot over the years due to these nefarious methods of property acquisition. So, read the rules to any contest you want to enter.</p>

<p>I'd be concerned about sending a pic to a low budget, shoestring operation that apparently can't afford a proofreader</p>

<p>Or even a word processor with spell-checking..?</p>

[greg_jackson3]

<p>seems typical though - how common is it to ask for entries at 72dpi?</p>
