HiResCovers.net are proud to present our first ever Poster Competition. As we have quite a comprehensive resource gallery available to our members,
it seems fitting we utilise this gallery and do something different from the usual cover competition.

There are three prizes up for grabs. The winner will receive his/her own poster creation printed at full ONE SHEET* poster size.
* (27”x 40” - 686mm x 1016mm).

Second and third place winning entries will each receive their poster printed at half one sheet size.
The competition will commence on the 26th April and run until Saturday the 17th May. This will give all competitors three weeks to complete and submit their
entries for judging over the following week. Judges will have one week to decide on the top three entries and the results will be announced on Sunday 25th May.
The judges have been picked and will remain anonymous.

All entries should be submitted to krafty at this email address: [email protected] Please copy and paste this address for accuracy.
If you require any further info with regard the competition you may PM krafty via the hirescovers.net forum.

POSTER COMPETITION RULES:

1. Poster Competition 2008 will be open to all members. (NO restrictions apply)
2. The winning entry(s) will have their poster professionally printed at full one sheet size.
To be able to receive your poster you are required to supply your postal address to either Bazzah or Krafty.
If you do not wish to give these details, there is a chance you may win and not receive your prize. In this case, the next highest marked entry with a supplied
address will win the prize.
3. The artwork required should be half size of a one sheet, which will be 343mm x 508mm @ 300dpi. Please saved your artwork as a jpeg and at compression
quality of 9 – baseline standard. This is because of file size limits when uploading.
4. The poster should be of a movie produced after the year 2000. You may use custom art, scans and/or screen shots to create your poster. However, you may
not use poster art. Remember that if your creation is at half the final size so if you have an image that looks suspect, it will look twice as bad on the final printed poster.
5. Each poster will be judged based on the following elements. Quality, originality, overall design and use of images.
6. Entries need to be submitted by 12:00 pm GMT (B.S.T) 17th may 2008. Any entry after this date will not be entered. Winners will be notified on the 25th May.
7. Judges decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
8. Posters must be up to site standard (see site rules)
9. Your chosen poster must be listed on www.imdb.com.
10. You may not post your poster for help, in this forum, or any other. All work must be done by yourself, without any assistance. Anyone found doing so will be disqualified.
11. You may enter the maximum of 2 posters per entrant.

May I wish all competitors GOOD LUCK. :)
Krafty.

Lulu. Are you saying that my mum does not know a good poster when she sees one? :P

To put your mind at ease the judges are from the cover community and are members/mod/admin from various sites not just this one.

I can't for obvious reasons name them, but rest assured they know what they will be looking for. Hope this helps you in your decision? Its only a bit of fun at the end of the day. :)
