NOTE: don’t forget your References! This example is APA format. You can use any style format you like; just be consistent. Ask your librarian if you need help with this. It’s also a good idea to ask someone to proofread your poster before you have it printed.

Pictures can be inserted. Do not stretch them though – that will make them distorted or pixelated when you print! Images especially look different on the screen than they do in print. You can select & delete the picture & this instruction box.
