English text
English articles should be emailed in plain text (NOT as a file) to Times@iranian.com.

Persian text
The chance that a Persian text is published will be much better if it is typed
and emailed in pdf format, or scanned and emailed in gif format. We do not have the
staff to type Persian articles but we will do our best. Submissions will not be returned.
Please mail your Persian article to: PO Box 34842, Bethesda, MD 20827, USA.

Art work
Submit photographs of your art work. Artists do not get paid for publishing their
work in iranian.com. No slides accepted. Images of your art work should be:
- 72 dpi resolution
- Not larger than 6 x 8 inches
- Not smaller than 3 x 4 inches
- In jpg or gif format only
- Images should preferably be uploaded on another web site. You would then give us
the address of that web site and we will download the images.
- If you are emailing the images, please send them individually (NOT as a zip or
hqx or any other kind of file) to Times@iranian.com.
- If you are sending the photographs by regular mail please note that we will not
