If anything is unclear, let me make a quick summary here. There are really only 2 rules with regards to image sizes:Submission info -
1) Only one entry per catagory is allowed by any entrant.
2) Maximum pixel width size for all standard size cels/douga/artwork is 500 pixels, 600 for all pan/oversized artwork. You may submit artwork that is less than this pixel size, though. Regardless of the size of the item, the total file size can not exceed over 300k. Standard size artwork is roughly 11.89 inches x 9.5 inches (302mm x 241 mm), while a pan or oversized item is much larger than this standard.
3) Artwork that has received a Beta Award in previous years can not be submitted under any catagory.
4) Unless there is an obvious difference, sequence mates in the same catagory are not permitted. Whoever submits the artwork first will be allowed to use that artwork in that particular catagory. If you manage to submit a sequence mate to an item that is already in that catagory, you will receive an e-mail and permission to enter another item in lieu of the repeated piece. This applies to all types of artwork.
5) While you are permitted a total of 8 submissions(5 in the standard catagories and 3 in the optionals), you are not required to submit eight different items. You may enter less items if you choose.
1. A maximum width of 500 pixels for standard size cels, and 600 pixels for pan or oversized cels. This means you may submit your images UP TO and including those widths. Anything exceeding them will be automatically resized by the awards site.
2. Files are to be no larger than 300k (that's 300 kilobytes or 307200 bytes). Anything larger will be automatically rejected.
Thumbnails will be created by the site and will be 150 pixels wide and clickable (full size images will be displayed once clicked). The reason for this is simply to keep page load time to a minimum--we have enough dial-up users that we want to keep overall page load times reasonable. If you have a high speed connection, the site will allow you to select a group of images for comparison (so you can view all the full size images on one page if you really wish).
On a side note: I am about to approve all the test entries so that those who are helping test the site can help test the viewing and voting functions. My apologies for the delay--the testers helped me fix a few bugs (special thanks to bulleta, beatrush, killua and syan for helping to find the biggest bugs
). Anyone who submitted test entries will be getting an email stating that their test entries have been approved in the next day or two. After that, you'll get a PM from me with view & vote testing instructions. 
Once we're done testing, the site will be opened to the public
