Hayley, do you know why they insist on UNEDITED?
I'm always editing my pictures, just to fix exposure, to remove dust, and ensure that colors are true to real life.

Judith - I fixed the wording. The unedited part was just an alternative. As long as you submit an edited image that's 3" x 3" at 300 dpi, you will be fine. Thanks!

By the way, this is an ongoing thing . . . The GlassBeads is a quarterly magazine so submit throughout the year!!!

I was asked a question as to how best to submit the info and images, I'd like to share how I do it here:

I usually put all my information on a MSWord doc and include that with the hi-res jpg images on the CD, as well as include a hard copy printout to be mailed with the CD in a jewel case.

Hope this helps!

One of my beads was selected for the Spring issue. It was much appreciated too!

I was also told that the publication will only highlight any artist not more than once a year so everyone has a chance. Sounds very fair to me.
