Steve, for animation, you put a small still image in 1 for your thumbnail. For 2 put a large still image, a frame from your animation. This is where the 1920 x 1080 image goes. 3 is where you put your animation. Are you asking what formats are allowed in 3 for the animation?

Right. I was expecting something like "acceptable formats: wmv, avi, mov", maybe a max running time (I don't see a reference to the 50MB maximum size in the Animation Contest rules), and maybe a frame size, e.g. 720x480 (SD). I have no problem with the two still images (although just to mention it, the screen shot above says 1200px max height and width, rather than the current rule showing 1920x1080). But it seems like a little more info on the video file is needed, before I get to the upload screen you show.
