Image Size and Quality
All photos submitted must be high-resolution. Images from phone cameras are not sufficient unless your phone has a high-quality camera and the images are saved at the highest resolution possible. Take a look at your file size—if the image is less than a megabyte or two in size, it’s probably not going to work. (Anything less than a megabyte will be shown in kilobytes). Photos downloaded from Google or Facebook, screenshots, and many photos taken with phone cameras will not be large or clear enough.

From Your Digital Camera
Be sure the settings are on highest JPG resolution possible. Do NOT reduce the file size.

From Your Scanner
If you’re scanning a photo, the images need to be at 200 dpi at a 100 percent. For example, if the original photo dimensions are 5 x 7, then the settings on the scanner need to be 5 x 7, with the resolution set at 300 dpi.

Print Quality Disclaimer
The photo image quality of any product we produce is completely dependent upon the quality of the original digital file uploaded by the customer. We will do our best to produce the best quality print from the documents supplied, but cannot be held responsible if the quality is found to be unacceptable, blurry or pixelated due a poor original source.

Do’s and Dont’s for Photo Submissions

• Photos should include the whole face.
• Leave plenty of space surrounding your subject. Please do not crop your image.
• Do not include other people in the picture (the submitted photo should only show one person, nobody else).
