Re: Good Photo?


Donna - that is a brilliant picture, Emma is very photogenic and looks like some mysterious 1940s film starlet in your picture.

I too would be tempted to frame that, or maybe get it blown up onto a box canvas and hang it on your wall . . . coz it's excellent (And Dawn did some rather good editing there just to finish it off).

If you do want to frame it, personally I think it would ace on a canvas too, a bit more editing might be a good idea, like this perhaps, taking out all the extra bits. Just a suggestion and you would need the original BIG file too. Its lovely Donna, you should be chuffed with it!

Re: Good Photo?


So can anyone tell me how I can get a digital picture made into a framed picture? And can I use the one you edited Dawn to get it done?

Re: Good Photo?


You need a high resolution (or as high as possible) picture. The more MB the image the larger it can go when printed - you can alter the settings on your camera to achieve this. Once you have this, put it on a disk or memory stick and take it down to one of the photo places on your High Street and they do the rest!

Re: Good Photo?


Sorry, am a bit thick!!

How can I use the original big picture when it is now better edited?? Is the edited picture any good if I right click it and save and then put it onto a card?

Re: Good Photo?


What is the file size Donna? You should be able to right click on it, go to properties and gauge file size from there.

Re: Good Photo?


Hmmm. That's quite small, suitable for screen/web viewing only. You probably need an image around 1.5 to 2 MB at the very least to successfully reproduce it for print. When we produce brochures etc at work, sometimes the images can come to about 40 MB for an A4 size, now that's probably bigger than you need but I think you need a larger file than the one you have.
