- HOW TO SEND US YOUR SUBMISSIONS
- ===============================
-
- We want you to send us your programs, animations, tunes, pictures, game tips
- and cheats, hacks, hardware projects, basically anything you can think of that
- you have done with your Amiga. It must be your own work - no passing off Chris
- Achilleos' greatest masterpieces as your own, and we need a variety of things
- from you in addition to your submission and we need them on your disk.
-
- 1. We need your name and address so that we know where to send your prize.
- You should also put your name and address on labels on your media.
-
-
- 2. We need two read me files accompanying your work; one for us and one
- to go on the CD itself (title them AF_ReadMe and ReadMe). These can be
- as in-depth as you want them to be, but should contain instructions for
- us on getting your work running if it is a complicated procedure,
- including things like necessary libraries and so on. The read me that
- will go on the CD will be the introduction of your work to the whole
- Amiga Format reading world so check your spelling and grammar and show
- people just what is so good about your work.
-
-
- 3. If you work requires files such as libraries which you cannot send
- us owing to copyright reasons make sure we know about them so that we
- can either arrange to put them on the CD, or warn our readers about
- them (you will probably do this in your CD read me).
-
- 4. Be aware that we won't be as interested in programs that need to
- boot or that require to be in a certain place on the CD, unless, of
- course, that place happens to be in your directory on the CD. Your
- directory will almost certainly have the path:
- "AFCDx:ReaderStuff/your_name/" but then no-one will be able to run your
- program except from the CD, limiting its usefulness or appeal.
-
- If we do put something on the CD that needs to autboot, it will almost
- certainly only be as a DMS that readers will have to extract to disk
- before they can use it.
-
-
- You can send us your work on pretty much any sort of media whether it be floppy
- disks (high or double density, but don't send us work on high density disks
- unless you yourself have a high density drive. High density disks used in a
- double density drive aren't as reliable as using double density disks), a
- floppy disk back up using AmiBack, Quarterback or any of the shareware backup
- tools, Zip disk, Jaz cartridge, SyQuest 44MB, 88MB or 105MB, DAT tape backup
- from any of the above-mentioned programs (the only thing we're not very keen on
- is the Video Backup System that Power Computing sell in the UK, we've had
- nothing but trouble with it), MIME e-mail to bvost@futurenet.co.uk, basically
- anything apart from a listing on paper. We don't want to have to type in your
- program too!
-
-
- We will return any media more expensive than high density floppies via
- registered post, so you won't have to worry about losing seventy quid's worth
- of Jaz cartridge.
