This is exciting! ^_^ I really want to enter a piece but I don't have a scanner. The first page says not to take photos of the art, but how else can I enter it?

@DarkDragon and X a k i, I had the same problem, here is what Firn told me:
Firn wrote:Technically it is of course possible to take a photo of art with a camera so that it cannot be told apart from scan, but the art can only be accepted if you accomplish that, and that is really difficult. Maybe you will find some way to scan your art? Maybe you have a friend with a scanner, most school should also have scanners, and, if I am correct, most copy shops also have scanners.

Heine; No camera, no friends, school's out for me already.
Though I think I could stop by the campus since they do summer intersession and just sneak in. >X>;;
Most copy places charge otherwise.
I will figure out what to do if I even end up with time to try and enter both.
I don't have a lot of traditional mediums so it would be hard for me to do something fantastic on paper.

It is just good to do what you can.
School is out for me also and of course places that have scanners do charge, but not by much. It takes me 15mins to get to town and 45mins to get to one of my friends house that actually have a scanner. I also thought about any other place I can get to and I thought of the public library, maybe you can also go there?
Just got to go by with what you have and do your best with it.

I'm like two minutes away from town, but unfortunately all the copy/paper places are on the other side of town completely so it'd take like 15 minutes to get there, then wait several hours for the next bus back.
Although if I were going to do that, I'd much rather just go to my college, I have a few things to do there anyway, plus they recently finished construction on the main building and I'd like to see the improvements, so it'd be much easier to kill a few hours there and use free top quality scanners in the computer labs and such. oxo
Our public library doesn't have scanners though, which I find odd. D:::
Anyway, you are right, and good luck to you. c:

I can try a place and pay to scan, but I was wondering if it was okay to take a photo of it and clean it up on Photoshop or something. Or does that not count as traditional art anymore?
