Reply With QuoteGood point, thanks.
Kensanata - you should post the deadline date for entries to the contest in this month's main challenge thread - to give entries finished for this month's contest a heads up to get their entries submitted to your contest. Several of this month's challenge map entries are intended to as entries in your contest.
You would probably get more submissions if you did that.

Good point, thanks.
Quick question - can it be entered with joint authorship, or only one author?

Join authorship is no problem. Just list all the authors on the submission. If you win, sharing the prize fairly is left up to the authors.
One more question...
The contest is for 1 page. I read the rules and it says A4 or US Letter.
Does the page need print borders? For example, our current map has 1/4 inch borders on a letter page, but I can't print that on my printer at 1:1 without clipping off the edges.
Is the border space even necessary, or can we go right to the edge?
Thanks,

There are no hard, technical rules to define "one page".
Here's what I'll do for myself: I'll print it on a single page using my printer and "shrink to fit" – and if I can't read it, I won't nominate it.
I think that in practice that usually means you don't need to worry about border space, print borders, and all that. If you went right to the edge and I printed it using the above procedure, then that'll shrink the submission by about 10-20% – eg. from 8½" to 7½" width. If that makes the submission unreadable, then you have probably crammed to much on a page anyway.
Hope that helps?
Yep - thanks! (The engineer in me is a bit anal...)Originally Posted by kensanata
