• The ‘free stream’ may integrate up to 600 words maximum into their panels.
• Clear visual communication of the idea is required in both streams
• Applicants must include as part of their submission, a small square JPEG (approximately 1024 x 1024 pixels) to act as a thumbnail reference for the online public voting gallery
