Like the IRTC CD-ROM's, we will use html language to display the images.  My
Netscape browser cannot see TGA.

The Executive Committee of 10best.raytrace.com (me, myself and i) met and
decided on the following clarification:

///---Image size rules for  Warp:------------------

#declare WarpsDefinitionsOf035MB= array[100]
#declare WarpsNumberOfImagesSubmitted=10;

#declare m=0;
#while(m<WarpsNumberOfImagesSubmitted)
    #declare n=0;
    #while(n<100)
        #if (WarpsImageSize[m]>  WarpsDefinitionsOf035MB[n] - 1)
            #reject WarpsImage
        #end
    #declare n=n+1;
    #end
#declare m=m+1;
#end

///-----Image size rule for everyone else:

0.35MB give or take 2-15%

I thought that the file size was automatically checked, so I thought that
there would be an exact number... :)

You can go back an upload images in a later session as many times as you
like, if that's what you were asking.

I feel like after waiting for so long we are suddenly being rushed to
make our uploads.  I have uploaded mine, but there's a lot of text and
probably rerendering/editing/compressing type stuff to do for each
image, and I think there needs to be some sort of access to your account
where you can edit your uploads or at least see what you've uploaded.

TGA would be a blatant waste of space. For the best lossless compression,
PNG would be a better option, which can also be seen in modern browsers. I
think PNG should be allowed too. It can compress more than JPG in some
cases, and will always look perfect.
