Submitted photographs remain the property of the person who took the pictures and the commissioner rights are not affected.
If you submit a photograph taken by a third party then its your responsibility to make sure the copyright holder and commissioner is happy with it being used by Martial News.
By submitting a photograph to Martial News you are also agreeing to those pictures being used in other publications run by ncjMedia such as the Sunday Sun, Evening Chronicle and Evening Gazette.
Photographs should be sent in a j-peg format. This makes them easier to manipulate (make bigger/smaller) so they fit their allotted space.
Also - pictures TAKEN from websites are too small (usually around 75dpi) and for setting out reasons its better that they are over 150dpi.
Always catchline photos the same as any submitted story so we can match them up.
(see photo tutorial)

We welcome video submissions.
As with photographs, you must have permission of the copyright holder before it is sent to us.
All video files should be m-pegs and be of good visual and audio quality.
Videos should be short - under ten minutes - and come with titles (What it is, who it is...).
Videos that contain libellous, racist, homophobic or sexist material, or which breaches any other law will not be published in Martial News.
We welcome all types of videos including training techniques and tips, events including charity bashes, competitions, seminars, funnies and quirkies.
But they must NOT be political, derogatory or hold up anyone or group to ridicule (Libel).
Martial News is for every martial artists and group - absolutely no politics!
