Hi Greg, There is another contest on the same page, The Image International, where the following rules apply:
"Digital files, JPEG format only, grayscale or colour (RGB). Minimum size: 5 x 7, 300 dpi. Maximum size: 9 x 12, 300 dpi. Maximum file size: 10 MB. Files exceeding 10 MB and/or in formats other than JPEG must be submitted by regular mail." I suggest you drop them an email about the ShowTime contest and ask them if the rules are correct. 3MB for a TIFF file of that size seems unrealistically small.
