Key Takeaways:

  • The "Picture of the Week" submission process has been simplified, now requiring entries to be sent via email instead of an old online form.
  • Submissions should be emailed to `editor+potw@avweb.com` with "Picture of the Week" in the subject line.
  • Each entry must include the photographer's name, title, copyright status, and a caption (30 words or less), with light photo manipulations for color or exposure being acceptable.

We’re going to try something a little different with Picture of the Week and we really need entries so give it a try. It couldn’t be simpler.

The old online form is a relic from when slow Internet connections and small hard drives made handling image files difficult. We’re past that so we can go to a simple email system to collect entries through a dedicated email address editor+potw@avweb.com .

Also, there is no size limit anymore but please don’t send really massive files. They won’t display any better than the typical resolutions put out by cell phones and most cameras.

Simply send us an email at editor+potw@avweb.com (the +potw is what puts it in a separate file for us so don’t leave it out). Put Picture of the Week in the subject line and include the following information:

  • Name of the photographer
  • Name of submitter if different
  • Is it copyrighted?
  • Title
  • Caption (30 words or less) describing what’s in the photo, where it was taken and what kind of camera was used along with any manipulations made.

Some light manipulation for color corrections and exposure are fine but please don’t distort reality.

That’s it. Send your entries to editor+potw@avweb.com
