A collection of my most often used event running "disclaimers"

Writing events:

Do not edit your entry post after the deadline; before that, edits are fine.
XXXX words or less, in English. While this event is open to Opal and Jade, judging can only be done in English.
The word limit of XXXX words will be enforced using [url=http://www.wordcounttool.com/]this [/url] or [url=http://www.wordcalc.com/]this [/url] word counter. Your pirate information, title of the story (if you have one) and prize information will not be included in the word limit.
If you plan on writing your story in another program, and copying and pasting it into the entry thread, it is often recommended that one use a plain text editor like Notepad to avoid the boxes and question marks that replace smart quotes. While some web browsers show smart quotes, it's a great idea to ask a hearty to look over your entry.

Art/Craft Events:

Image Size: XX(600) x XX(600) pixels max. Your image should be in .jpg or .png file format. Additional photos may be included as links.
Your entry will need to be uploaded to a photo hosting site of your choice - such as Photobucket or Imageshack. http://yppedia.puzzlepirates.com/Howto:Post_an_Image
Include a card with your pirate name and year in all of your photos! Photoshopping your name after wards, is not acceptable and will be considered an invalid entry
