Caution: If you plan to use your ZAPP™ images, make sure you use the original images you prepared for upload to ZAPP. It is our experience that artists who download their images from the ZAPP™ website are actually getting images that are smaller in size than what they uploaded. Be careful. ** Our image requirements follow the suggestions of the NAIA (National Association of Independent Artists); allowing you to use your digital images already prepared for other events that use ZAPP.

If you are unable to upload your images to our system, or are just uncomfortable doing so, the following two options available:

1. Email your images to artadmn@sgcity.org with your NAME and CATEGORY in the Subject Line of the email.

2. Mail us a CD or DVD with your images
