District Deadline is TOMORROW!!!

Just a reminder that your photos must be submitted by 5:00 pm and you must register on 4-H connect as well.

The following is taken directly from the district guidelines.

Photographs must have been taken by the 4-H members since January 1, 2011.

 All entries for the 2012 District 5 4-H Photography Contest will be completed using the 4-H
Connect system and e-mail. Please read and follow the submission guidelines very carefully to
ensure correct entry classification.


Formatting Your Photograph:


Each photograph must be formatted in a jpg file to where it can be printed at 300dots per inch
(dpi) at a 3 inch X 5 inch size. File must not be over 1.5 MB in size to upload.


Labeling/Naming Your Photograph:


Each photograph will need to be clearly labeled with the members age division, the name of the
category, county, and the 4-H member’s name. For example, a Junior member entering the
domestic animals category would label their entry as “JR_Domestic_County_Member Name.”
Please use the category file names provided in the photography guidelines.


E-mailing Photographs:


In the subject line of the e-mail, include the name of the 4-H member and their county.
Example—Member Name, Clover County. Please make sure the photograph(s) is attached
before sending. No text is needed in the body of the e-mail. E-mails can come from personal
e-mail addresses as well as county Extension office e-mails. Send photographs to
d54h@ag.tamu.edu .


 A 4-H’er may have one entry in each category for a total of 15 entries.


Black & White pictures and Color pictures will be judged together. There is not a separate
division for Black & White photos.


 Entries must arrive in the district office no later than February 14, 2012. Photos will be judged
prior to District 5 4-H Roundup so that awards can be distributed during Roundup.
