10x10 is a lot of fun for short attention fragments. We welcome a broad mix of participants, from well-known professionals to students, recent graduates and new firms presenting their work for the first time. Come thirsty and bring along your friends!
FORMAT
1. -Save your images in JPEG format (size: 1024px by 768px).
-Landscape orientation is preferred in order to maximize the viewable area of the screen, but Picasa will adjust the size of a portrait image in order to fit the screen.
-Keep your images under 450 KB each (we recommend using the "save for web" option in Photoshop to keep images light).-Once you have them all ready, zip them and e-mail them to us (it makes it a lot easier for you and for us to send them altogether in one zip folder than all separately). 2. -Please use the following naming format to make sure your slides are incorrect order (but use your initials instead of “FL”):FL_001.jpg FL_006.jpgFL_002.jpg FL_007.jpgFL_003.jpg FL_008.jpgFL_004.jpg FL_009.jpgFL_005.jpg FL_010.jpg For example: to avoid having your slide #10 before your slide #2 (the computer will read FL_0010.jpgbefore FL_002.jpg), make sure you use the above naming format.The best thing to do to make sure your slides are in correct order is to rehearse before the event. Sort your images by name and practice your talk.
If you are a Mac user, make sure your images run well on PC before sending them to us or vice-versa.
Also, just a friendly reminder that 10x10 is not a venue for sales pitches, so any presentation with a commercial intent or a corporate promotion will NOT be welcome.
Please let us know if you have any questions: 10by10miami@gmail.com Have fun, remember that you only have 300 seconds on stage!

YOUR 10 IMAGES:
1. Please make sure you have your 10 images ready at least four days before the event. Since there are several presenters on every event, we can't afford to waste time setting up images on-site or dealing with format nuances during the event.
2. PLEASE follow the format below, we have had some presenters not respecting the format in the past and this brings technical issues during presentations. If you name your images correctly there should be no disordered images. We use a software called Picasa (by Google) to run the slideshow, it makes a nice fade between slides and it is programmed to show every slide for 20 seconds only (so neither you or us have control over that).
