Bill Sofer asks about submitting electronic images.
I have had success submitting images to NIH and NSF in grant proposals
using digitized gel scans that were printed on the LaswerWriter (at least they
have not complained about the images). I think in part it depends on what the
images are meant to show.
One option is to use a densitometric tracing of each gel lane.
I agree with Bill that there is a need for some standardized method to
submit and publish digitized images.
