The Basic FAQ's

CORRECT or EDIT a SUBMITTED FORM

You can edit or correct ANY information you submitted on ANY form up until the entry deadline.

  1. Find the email that has the form you want to edit or correct.  Each form you submit comes to the email you entered on the form
  2. Click on the link "Edit the shared entry" (see below)
  3. This will take you back to the form and will allow you to make any changes you want INCLUDING adding any new media you want.
  4. Go to the end of the form and submit the changes.  You will receive another copy of the form showing the edits and changes

DIVISIONS & CATEGORIES: They look different this year?

The IPC is always redefining the award DIVISIONS & CATEGORIES to meet the needs of the rapidly changing industry.

If you having had a chance to read about this years changes and the rules and criteria associated with the divisions and categories, CLICK HERE

WARNING: Failure to follow specific rules and criteria could cause your entry to be eliminated.  Call (208) 389-2879 if you're not sure.

ENTRY NAME or TITLE?

An entry name or title is like a title to a book.  It's descriptive...enticing! If your entry should win, it's what will be engraved on your award.

Good title: "Hero's Do More Than Ride Off Into the Sunset"

Bad Title: "Best-News-featurestory_10-12-2018

Don't:

  1. Run words together (our search engines can't find them)
  2. Use hyphens or underscores (same as above)
  3. Use the category name (it's not needed and is a horrible name)

You're creative...be creative!

MEDIA FILES: What type can I use for my entry?

  • Video: YouTube Video
  • Audio: MP3
  • Image: JPEG or PNG
  • Document: Single or Merged Multi-page PDF
  • Articles or Online Content: URL
  • eMag "Flip-Book" post: Issuu.com URL
MERGED MULTI-PAGE PDF DOCUMENT?

If you have an article that was created using multiple pdf pages, instead of have to upload each page seperately, combine them or "merge them" into a single file.  Use this free web service to do that.

YOUTUBE LINK (URL) Why do I need to upload it ...I already pasted it into the form?

When you upload your YouTube URL to our site, it displays the video in our own HD viewer and strips out any playlist or advertising.  The judge only sees the entry video. 

Video's running from webpages take up to 30 seconds to start running, are constantly loading advertising which cause the entire page to jump around.

Video's from our embedded media player start in 2-3 seconds, look spectacular and have NO advertising or playlists
