Submitted mine. It came in at just under 4MB in the end. I only included a few of the manufacturer photos because sending those in a sample review when they already have many high quality ones is kinda pointless. The size in my .doc is accounted for by my terrible, big phone photos.

I'm pretty happy with the quality of my review though. I struggled with the questions, but I hope I at least get a runner up prize. 9800GT's showin' her age!

It would have been nice to receive confirmation of entries, but I understand you guys must have been flooded with them.

4MB file size :eek:

I've included about 10 images and 16 spreadsheet documents and mine comes to 741KB, I hope the spreadsheet documents show up.

Could an admin please check my entry and see if the images and spreadsheet documents show up and if they don't could I resubmit my entry late with the images working?

can we submit the reviews as a PDF ? I know its been asked but there was no answer

Yes both PDF and doc are fine

I didn't have any benchmark stuff, as mine was a review of a case. The only bench I could do was idle and load temps.

Just to clarify the end date is 12:00 noon on the 14th right?

Also does the subject of the submission e-mail matter? I remember reading something about not using the word review? :confused:

I think that was just a joke.

I hope it was anyway. >.>

Yeah, not a very funny one at that! :rolleyes:

I think what you're talking about was initially aimed at me. And yes, I took it as a joke. It would be rather stupid of OcUK to ignore entries to a review competition because they had the word review in them!

I know it's a little late to ask, but is it okay to submit a game review? My PC has gone **** up today so I can't get a hardware review done, but could easily get an Xbox game review done if acceptable?

Bit of a random question, but is it ok to submit them in as publisher files?

i think they are .pub

thanks

Slackworth · 13 Mar 2010 at 22:03

Needs to be in more of a document format.

Arcimbaldo · 13 Mar 2010 at 22:10

Well i have done the whole thing in publisher so how can i change it to send it to you?

mrteabag · 13 Mar 2010 at 22:49

Copy and paste?Is it just text or what

Arcimbaldo · 13 Mar 2010 at 22:57

No i have about 15 pictures aswell
Is it ok if i send you one copy as a .pub then another in a different formant incase it fails?

I'm not sure which version you have. But in publisher 2010, you can go: File--> save as --> Word document
It converts nicely for me, no issues with pics etc.

Arcimbaldo · 13 Mar 2010 at 23:49

I only have 2003 atm

i will sort it out tomorrow morning then send it then

Diggsy · 14 Mar 2010 at 00:33

Just sent mine in, don't hold out much hope though as I forgot about the deadline so had to rush to get it done tonight

Anyway, good luck guys, someone is going to get a cracking prize

Speed · 14 Mar 2010 at 00:39

The deadline is tomorrow noon right?
