WHEN 'COLD CALLING', IS IT BEST TO SEND SLIDES OR GOOD QUALITY PRINTS TAKEN FROM THE ORIGINALS OR INDEED WOULD IT BE BEST TO HAVE 20 OR SO SHOTS PUT ONTO A CR-ROM.

Depends who you are cold calling Gordon. From a magazine editor's perspective most prefer slides, and just a sheet of 20 of your best, with a short cover note and a SAE for their return. If you are worried about them being damaged or lost it's a good idea to have duplicates (high quality only!) made and send those. Some mags will accept CDs but the best thing to do there is provide an index sheet of reasonable sized versions of the contents of the CD too so the editor can take a quick look to see if there's anything of interest.
