Submitting an article for Dutton Torque
To submit an article for Dutton Torque (the Dutton Owners Club magazine) please read the guidelines below.

Words
Preferably e-mailed to the Editor as attachments in any of the following formats;

• Text (txt)

• Rich Text Format (rtf)

• Word (doc)

• Text in an e-mail

• Posted to The Editor (address on inside front cover) as a typed file which can then be scanned in and converted to the right format using character recognition software,

• Hand written letter.

Photos
There are now two ways to submit your pictures, either electronic or as paper copies.
Electronic
For inclusion in the mag: files at 300 pixels/inch with a maximum size of 1529 x 1147 pixels. (128 x 85mm - size of pics in mag). Files can be in either colour or black and white. Format preferably as JPGs since this is a smaller file size. As these are large files either send on CD through the post to Piers (Editor) or email to Amber (Webmaster) who has broadband. For inclusion on the web site: (adverts or new page of members cars) as JPGs - 96 pixels/inch with a maximum size of 350 x 350 pixels. Since these files are smaller they can be sent be email (provided you don't send too many at once). Any files not to these requirements will probably not be received due to limits set on file sizes received by email.

Original photos/drawings 
For inclusion in the mag good quality pictures are required with plenty of contrast so that they can be scanned in by the printer. If in doubt and you can try photo copying them as this gives a good idea of how they will be in black and white. Please let me know if you want them returned.

All  contacts
Below are the contacts in the committee of the Dutton owners club. Feel free to contact any of us, if there are no details then check out the inside front cover of the club magazine, since not everyone wants their full details on the web.

Note: If you have a Technical query or are after parts can you please check out the Identify your car, Frequently Asked Questions, Where can I get pages first then post a question on the Question and Answers page. This should get you a faster response, since we do this in our free time and don't always check our emails regularly, and since plenty of people read the Q&A page with a wider range of experience of modifying Duttons you are likely to get more first hand knowledge.
