Digital BW, The Print

The orientation of the ACP home page slide show is horizontal.

Vertical images this space turn out to be very small. Square images have large margins on either side.

We want the flow of the slide show to be consistently horizontal -- both for photographs and for announcements.

It's not that we think vertical or square photographs are in any way bad, they just don't fit our current format.

We'll have other competitions in the future that do not have this restriction.
