Guidelines for Editorial Submissions

Traditional Media (printed or hard copy)

• No pre-printed graphics that contain shaded areas are suitable for publication. Solid black graphics can be reproduced from printed material if the copy is clean and the ink is dark and consistent. No copyrighted material will be accepted.
• Faxes are not suitable for reproduction and should only be sent as a guideline or proof. Photocopies will be used at the discretion of our Production Dept.
• Color artwork can be converted to black & white if the color is solid and dark (no shading).

• Color and black & white accepted.
• Photos clipped from newspapers or magazines are not accepted.
• For best results, submit only true photographic prints for reproduction.
• Digital prints are accepted but they will result in less than optimal quality when reproduced because they contain a dot pattern that is not visible to the eye but can be seen by our scanners.
• We prefer that a small piece of paper containing the photo ID and any other pertinent information be taped to the back of the print. If you must write on the back of the photo use a quick-drying pen like a Sharpie marker — do not use a pencil or ballpoint or generic felt-tipped pen.
• Photographic prints will be returned if a self-addressed stamped envelope is provided.
• We reserve the right to refuse photos that are damaged, of poor quality or contain objectionable content.

Electronic Files

• Send all submissions to: posteagle@aol.com.
• Email messages must have a title (many email programs will not transmit an email message without one).
• If you include an attachment, in the message portion of your email include a description of what is attached and contact information including name, phone number, and e-mail address if available.
• You can send your article/column submission as an attached Microsoft Word doc, plain text file or copy and paste it into the body of the email message.

• Please send a fax to back up your electronic transmission.
• We accept graphics in .tif, .jpg, .bmp or .eps formats. We do not accept any graphics in .gif format.
• We do not accept photos or graphics downloaded from a web page.
• We do not accept floppy disks — only CDs and DVDs.
