Submission is only by invitation or arrangement. We are not accepting unsolicited submissions at this time. Unsolicited submissions will
be returned, destoryed and not reviewed.
Submission guidlines:
- Image must have been taken with a minimum 8 MP camera and preferrably over 10 MP.
- File size minimum must be 48 inches by 32 inches. This MUST be original file size. I can be reduced from a larger file but simply submit the larger file we would love to have it. The file must not have been
enlarged. We are in the market of selling fine art large format prints. If you submit an image that is actually smaller then this it simply wont blow up.
If it gets sold, and we try and to blow it, and we cant, well, we have wasted our time, you have wasted your time and your work will be entirely deleted from our
database. Please do not use extrapolation software to blow up image files that are meant to be original files. The absolute minimum we will accept is 42 inches by 28 inches.
- Please try to keep your editing to a minimum. Overly edited files commonly have digital artifacts, degradation of image, pixelation and other unpleasant side effects that appear in large format prints.
We suggest using software that does not bastardize your files every time it opens and closes the files. We recommend adobe products.
- IPTC meta data must be embedded. Below is a guideline for IPTC data
- Images should have at least 10 keyword and at least 20 is suggested. Keywording should be done
by hand to insure best results of selling your images.
- Identifying your work. All of your files should have your initials as the suffix. IE: filename_rlc.jpg .
- Filenames must be in all lower case. IE: city_streets_filenumber_rlc.jpg .
- UNDERSCORES... For you mac users, all filenames must have underscores in order to work in our database. IE: "altamere_waterfall_spring_filename_rlc.jpg". Files with spaces
and not underscores will be returned.
- Arrangements for file submission can be made using FTP, but DVD or CDs of the originals must be supplied for record.
The preferable way to submit a body of work is on an external hard drive.
- Your submitted work is not accepted based on submission, but by acceptance by SFBayImages.
- If your work has identifiable humans then a Model Release form must be provided. Stock photographs with trademark items such as Nike shoes are not acceptable.
If your work includes conspicuously private property then a release must be provided. Photographs of personal property such as houses, boats, or pets are private property. Release forms for any photo with with people, private places or things
must have the release form submitted at that time. Release forms must be in digital format scanned with signatures. You may mail copies as an alternative with your W-9 form.
- In order to get paid, or for us to sell your work, you must have submitted a w-9 form and a signed memo and/or signed contract.
