Photo Resolution Help

When selecting photos for your MTD Presentation Album, it's best to try to get the best resolution possible...

So you have a photo you like, but how do you know it's an OK size for print? Here are a couple tips for finding out photo size and resolution:

Eye Test!

First, try this... Look at the photo, does it look grainy or blurry? If yes, you may want to consider choosing a larger photo.

Save the photo to your desktop
Right click photo and click "Get Info"
Look for "Dimensions" under "More Info"
Anything above 2000 pixels is probably a safe bet, but remember, if it's blurry on your screen, it could look even more blurry (not less!) on paper.

300 dpi (under horizontal and vertical resolution) is best... HINT: Facebook photos are only 72 dpi, which means the resolution is MUCH lower than ideal.
