<strong>The</strong> editorial policy <strong>of</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Journal</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Australian</strong> <strong>Ceramics</strong> is to allow the author to use his or her own<br />
writing style. Minimum editorial interference is exercised except in grammar and spelling. At times,<br />
articles may be edited to meet layout requirements and, when possible, the author will be contacted<br />
prior to going to print. If you have submitted the article to more than one magazine, please tell us.<br />
A complimentary copy <strong>of</strong> the magazine is sent to the artist and author on publication.<br />
<strong>The</strong> quality <strong>of</strong> images is extremely important and may determine whether or not you r article is<br />
published. A good image is in focus, with proper exposure, a full depth <strong>of</strong> field and a full range <strong>of</strong><br />
contrast (light to dark tones). Work hidden by very dark shadows and I or set against busy backgrounds<br />
should be avoided. White, grey, black and earth tones make a good neutral background. Please ensure a<br />
generous space around the object (tight cropping is undesirable). Do not alter or manipulate the images.<br />
High resolution digital images are preferred, measuring at least 18cm X 13cm at 300dpi. Please send a<br />
small selection <strong>of</strong> your preferred images on a disc clearly marked with the artist's name. If possible print<br />
and supply a contents page <strong>of</strong> the disc.<br />
Al l images must be accompanied by captions in an accompanying text document. Please list artist, title,<br />
date, materials and technique, dimensions (h, w, d in ems) and photographer.<br />
We also accept transparencies (35mm or large format) and good colour prints. Please send duplicates,<br />
not originals. A ll care is taken, but the material you send passes through many hands in many different<br />
places, so no responsibility can be accepted for lost material. Our aim is to return all photographic<br />
material after the issue is published.<br />
