Uploaded files are limited to 20MB
Original posters can either be scanned or photographed
Remember if taking a photo, please ensure a clear, non-blurred image is taken. Think about:

good lighting
ensuring the poster fills the entire screen, an overhead shot is often best as you are standing above the poster, looking down
avoiding flash, as if a glossy poster, you will get glare
