Step 1.Check that you are eligible

If you are intending to advertise a business or for-profit organisation, your application won't be accepted.

Step 2.Check that your advertisement meets our content guidelines

Size and format

• Do submit your advertisement image as a JPG file
• Do make your submission exactly 1080 pixels wide by 1360 pixels high

Written content

• Do keep your message simple - you can elaborate with further details by linking to a web page or social media post
• Do use a 'call to action' - i.e. a short, one sentence prompt such as 'Scan the QR code to register' or 'Head to our website to learn more'
• Do use URLs (links) that are short and easy to type manually, or alternatively turn your link into a QR code
• Don't use more than 55 words (inclusive of call to action) in your image

Typography

• Don't use text colours that have poor contrast with your background
• Don't use fonts smaller than 48pt for body (paragraph) text, or fonts smaller than 120pt for headings or calls to action

Graphics

• Do aim to use visuals and imagery that are consistent in tone and style and match your message
• Don't use visuals that make your text hard to read

Photography

• Do use images and logos with transparency (PNG files with a 'see through' background) if you are putting them over a coloured background or photograph
  
• Don't stretch images to be larger than their original size - if they aren't big enough, stretching them will make them blurry on the screen

If you're unsure of what some of these terms mean or don't have experience with making images, consider supporting local businesses or reaching out to a community member with graphic design knowledge to assist you.
