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.
