File size restriction

We have been informed by the folks at the Better Newspaper Contest website that they have established a new maximum file size for uploads.

Files may not exceed 5 MB each.

We got this message from BNC:

As you may know BetterBNC experienced a system slowdown, and eventual stoppage, on Monday, September 26. We determined the cause to be a high number of very large files being uploaded across several contests with imminent entry deadlines.
Files of extreme size already uploaded as entry attachments have been accepted, however future entry attachments may not exceed 5mb per individual file uploaded.

Remember that your entries will be viewed on a computer screen that's generally set to 72 dpi. Consequently having files with higher resolution isn't going to make it appear on screen any better than 72 dpi. By submitting files with the lower resolution you can save a ton of space.
