Guidelines for Submitting Logo / General Graphic Designs

	Do upload images that follow a 4:3 aspect ratio (ie. 600w x 450h / 1200w x 900h) Do ensure your design covers as much of the preview image as possible Do use a white background (where possible)
	Don't have multiple designs in a single file. Each variation should be submitted as a seperate design. See submitting linked designs.
	Don't have too much white space around your design. This will cause issues when we display thumbnails of your design as it will be difficult to see details.
	Don't stretch your designs to fit the ratio - instead scale the image down for best results.
	Don't add borders around designs to the submission. These make your designs look out of place when displayed on our system and our automatic resizing functionality tends to have problems processing them. Adding background color and stylized backgrounds is fine (but be aware that some designs will be cropped down for viewing purposes).

Guidelines for Submitting Web / Brochure / Flyer Designs

	Do upload images that are 1200 pixels wide (this allows customers to see details of your design when they view full size image). We will make sure the thumbnail that is generated is an aspect ratio of 4:3. Do try and make the website take up as much of the preview as possible and minimise white space around your designs. Do only have the main view of the website as the preview image you upload. You should upload each page as a separate design and link it to the main design.
	Don't have too much white space around your design. Web designs that take up as much space as possible look much better when displayed on our site.
	Don't have multiple pages in a single submission. You should upload each page as a separate design and link it to the main design. See submitting linked designs.
