Great to get the spread in the mag....but seems kinda funny that you (Jam comittee?) pick 12 pictures instead of sending a bunch of them, for the editor to chose from.
Did the mag ask that you do that, or is it your idea?
One photo per person is not a good idea, the effect is to reduce the overall quality of the pics in favor of being inclusive to amateurs. This isn't T-ball, may the best pics win. We have plenty of fantastic photographers on this site, its not fair that they can only submit one photo each, imo.
If you were instructed to send 12 you like, there is no reason on this end that participants only get to submit one, unless the people who get to pick the pics don't want to have to sort thru a bunch of photos.
If you guys picking the pics, think it will be too much work to sort thru multiple pics from one photograhper, I invite you to have a picture contest on the forum here so you don't have to do anything. I volunteer to run the contest, and we can all vote on favorites.
Post a bunch of pics on our forum, vote, send 12 to mag.
What do you think?

I think a limit per person may be a good idea considering that by the end of jam I am estimating close to 1,000 pics and out of those, about 100 that will be printed off some possibly being poster size.

Sure. But not one pic per person. In a contest on the forum you could post your fav 10 up and others can vote for the 12 to send in.

I agree with Jan. Allow more than 1 per person.

At last, my BFGs and the beautiful contrast created by their visible white walls could make me famous...

Yes the mag ask me to do it. and those are the rules, this is a Jam committee initiative, there will be no poll, no debate, no contest ran on the board, as we want this in the fall of this year issue. Chose one pic that you think is the best send the pic with a small caption and if chosen it will be send with the article to be publish. And Yes it is to simplified the process, and foremost eliminate the kind of popularity contest who will come out of it. The BFG pics can be submitted in the above as well, but they are a follow up to Miller tire a sponsor the pics will be Printed 8x10 for display in the shops and offices. as you know they supported us on the first year of Jam, and never came back It took me 2 years to get them back and we want them to come back next year. All BFG pics will be submitted.

No messin around! lol I'll withhold further comment besides saying the format is not condusive to gathering the best pics, just trying to be helpful, not annoying. I run BFG's on two of my rigs. Better go clean 'em up.

From Jam 08, so I can't submit it, but it's pretty much my all time favorite pic, and I was sporting BFGs

What is the deal with a BFG photo?? Are you looking for a photo to print for the sponsors wall??
Also, if they're are photos for a magazine I think they require 10mp shot or bigger do they not??
