Photo Sizing Requirements

All photos that you post must adhere to these simple rules. If not, you may have problems when posting. And remember, even if you are not going to crop your image, you still have to size it.

1.     Using the crop tool in Photoshop, make the long dimension of you image 

10 inches long.

            Example: If your image is horizontal, the width should be 10 inches.

                             If your image is vertical, the height should be 10 inches.

2.     While still in the crop tool, make sure your ppi (pixels per inch) is set at 100

3.     The final size of your image should be under 1mb (1mb=1000k). Shoot for an

image size of 500k to 950k. Your size will vary depending on the color information of the image.
