Poster print will be either A0 (1189mm x 841mm / 3ft x 4ft approx)) or A1 (841mm x594mm) depending on resolution of your photo. Prints are in full colour and fade resistant up to 200 years!).

digitalclassiccars - big posters from your digital photos

Please send your pictures, via email to the editor of Sprint at picthis@tvrcc.com (with your name, address and membership number) who will choose the picture of the month.
Note that the main reason for rejection of images for the competition is poor image quality. The normal acceptable minimum size of image is around 1250 pixels along the longest side at 300dpi. The image can be reduced via jpeg or similar, but not by much. An image size of around 1Mb in JPG format is about right.
if you are a bit confused by the paragraph above please feel free to phone or email the editor.
The only prerequisite is that any submission must have some connection, however vague, with TVR or the club.
