Bloody hell, they're really limiting their potential entries with that resolution limit.

3000 x 2400? My 6.1mp dSLR only does 3008 x 2000!

Nope, not 90%, more like 98-99%

Well it is clear that they want pics from Japan and such cause cams with that high quality are rather cheap over there and very common.

I got the photo gear, got the pics, but "Joyful memories & funny moments" is definitely not my cup of tea...

Gunporn and action shots yes, merry go around no.

Exactly, I wouldn't waste my time, if this was gun porn or action shots I'd definitly give it a shot. Get it?! Shot like a camera, and shot like a try, it's a pun, oh yeah I rock!

If they put your picture in some stuff you don't like, you are screwed. You can't sue. LOL. Copyright issues, you will lose. If they make tons of money out of this, you get nothing. Just post here at Arnies, you'll be more famous. (or your money back guaranteed.)

Read it again. They want the photos in digital format only. You can mail it to them on CD but printing it out and sending it isn't going to be much good for them when it comes to putting it into their calendar!

Totally depends on how you define "Joyful memories"..... hosing down a bunker full of opfor with my drum-mag-fed G3 mod is one of my most "joyful memories" from a skirmish. tongue.gif

For those that aren't sure about their Camera, you're looking at a 7.2MP cam minimum. So yeah, that stuffs most of the uk. Maybe I'd be able to stick 4 photos together.....

That said, If you weren't sure and you had a viable camera, I think I should look after it for you, just in case... wink.gif

As I understand it:

* Digital Photos

"or"

* Photos in 3R or 4R

They will scan them for sure. There are plenty of good scanners available recently. Even my "midrange" Microtek 6100 scanner makes 6400x3200 dpi with 48-bit color depth. smile.gif
