CD ROM Contributions - Submission Instructions

Dear Colleague,

Thank you for your interest in contributing to the Cytometry CD-ROM Series! The following details are provided to ensure that all contributions are readable. Please read them carefully. A checklist is REQUIRED - please send it to us with your material.

Content: We welcome all (unpublished) research contributions. Please include a submission form with your material. Please note that the more information or explanation that you include, the more usable your contribution will be. In addition, more information helps us to place your work in the most logical section of the CD. Inclusion is based on quality of images and supporting information. Submissions with inadequate supporting information or unreadable files will not be included.

Format:

Filenames must be 8 chars.3 chars and should conform to ISO9660 standards. Long filenames will not work!!! Use underlines instead of hyphens if necessary.
Images and graphics are preferred in tif (uncompressed) format, in 150 dpi resolution (300 dpi if possible). Gif or jpg formats are acceptable.
MS Word documents and Powerpoint presentations are fine. Please tell us the version used and platform. Text files are preferred in ASCII format.
Movies are preferred in avi or mov format. QT and mpeg are also acceptable. If at all possible, please sent multiple formats, we will include them all. Animated gifs are helpful for those without plug-ins.
Java scripts ok, java applets are not. We are working in HTML 3.2.

Submission: However you send your files, YOU MUST mail in, fax, email, call in, or include a completed checklist.

For file transfer, FTP is preferred. If you have multiple directories, please send your files as a zip archive with the directory structure preserved.

To FTP:

Connect to ftp.cyto.purdue.edu
Login as anonymous
Your email as password
Change directory to upload (cd upload)
Use binary mode (bin)
If you have trouble connecting with your FTP client, turn off PASV mode.
"Put" your files - NOTE: For security reasons you will NOT be able to see your files !!
Inform us that you have sent it (Best way is to fax the checklist, or email it)
We will confirm within 3 working days. If you don't hear from us, please resend and renotify.

If you cannot FTP your files, you can send them on diskette, 100 Mb zip disk for PCs, or CDR. Please do not submit binary files as email attachments - they typically get scrambled and are unusable.
