Your Submission

On-line presentation requirements
The CD-ROM uses an HTML interface and Netscape as the browser. You may inlcude audio/video clips , images and quick time movies to make your presentation as interesting as possible. You may also provide screen- shots of your product for the presentation. To do this, use the IRIX utility "/usr/sbin/snapshot" to create an RGB file of your screen. The manual page on snapshot provides more detailed information on how to do this. Try to provide 24 bit snapshots if possible since SGI 8 bit machines will automatically dither the images. Con- vert them to GIF or JPEG using "imgworks" found in your "Media Tools" directory. Please note, the Hot Mix CD does not support image mapping.

If your company has a 3D image of your logo, include it with your presentation.

Keep your presentation is dynamic, try not to submit text only. Remember, this is a sales tool for you! Keep in mind you will be billed acccording to the size of your presentation.

Submit your presentation on a DAT, QIC, floptical or e mail directly to clowry@sgi.com.
