Every month Airlinerworld is full of photos from all around the world from a lot of photographers. How can I contribute a photo for printing? Is there an email adress or a normal adress. Do they accept .JPGs (what sizes/resolutions) or only slides.
Do they have to be newsworthy or are “cool shots” allowed as well? Judging from my monthly read they seem to also accept photos that are not necesarily newsworthy (mostly from the UK).
I realise it will be up to the publishers discretion wether or not to accept it.

One question that hasn’t been asked yet is “What’s the going rate?” 😀
Not very much 😀

Nothing less than 300 dpi is acceptable for publication
Any image can easily be made to be 300dpi (more accurately, 300 pixels per inch)… With that stipulation, its just a question of what size the printed version will be that could be an issue.

Pretty much all the magazines accept digital images now, although the size of the image and resolution may dictate what they do with them (i.e. a small or low-res image is highly unlikely to make a centre spread!).
My first recommendation would be to be selective – look at the magazine, see what sort of images they use, and then send only similar. Send the editor small-ish sized jpegs first off – big enough so that he can see the subject and make a judgement on whether its a good photo (sharp, well exposed, etc), but not so big that you end up bunging up his e-mail box with hundreds of megs of pictures. Tell him what format you can supply the images in, and how big (pixels) you can supply if he wants larger versions. Most editors will appreciate a brief explanation of the image – why its newsworthy or of interest, so that they can place a caption with the picture if they use it.
Finally be aware that some magazines want exclusives, so don’t go offering your newsworthy pictures to every magazine (or if you do, tell the editor that you’re offering the images to other magazines) – furthermore, there is at least one magazine that doesn’t like the news images it uses to have been shown on the web, so beware that too.

Get in touch with the Webmaster, Im sure he’ll give you Tony Dixon’s (Editor) Key pub email address. I sent some pictures in a while back, i was told they would appear in a feature about the Brooklands Museum in the magazine – im still waiting! 🙁
