It's not too late!!!!

Posted on 21:01 by Unknown
The Spectrum call for entries deadline is TODAY.




If you haven't sent out your entries yet, it's not too late... Entries need only be postmarked by the end of the day.



Don't have a quality printer?

Go to your local Wal-Mart with a CD, and print your images using the one hour service. Or, use the Kodak Instant Picture Maker. Both produce great quality prints, are quite color accurate, and relatively inexpensive. A single print will run you between $3 - $5.



The Kodak machine prints on extra glossy paper which can be a bit hard to view under certain lighting. Given the choice, I'd opt for the one hour service, which prints on a satin Fuji paper. For the first several years that I entered Spectrum (and got in), these are the type of prints I submitted.



Worried about packing your prints?

Use your local post office. The 8x10 photo prints will fit easily into a flat rate Priority Mail envelope.

You can fit a ton of them in there, as well as a sheet of cardboard for added durability, and it still costs just $5.



So go for it!

You've got 17 hours left, and times-a-wastin!
