How to size your images before uploading them on artcall: 
Check that your image has a .jpg or .png extension at the end of its name
Size: An image size is determined by its width and its height in pixels (px)
Weight: the weight of an image also called "File Size"  is measured in kilobite (KB) or megabite (MB)
To upload your images on art call, the size of your image must be at least 960 x 1920 px, and the weight less than 4MB.
PLEASE DO NOT SUBMIT MORE THAN 1 WORK IN A SINGLE SUBMISSION. This makes for a very difficult selection process for the jurors and the admins.  Thank you for understanding.
