When possible please select photos that clearly show the person or object you would like engraved. The better the original photo the better your finished piece will be. If you are sending a digital image please use a 2 megapixel or better camera. The largest setting for JPG files should use used. For best results do NOT send photos printed on a home printer. Email us the digital image instead. A photo developed or printed at a store is fine. If scanning a photo, please scan between 250 – 300 DPI. The quality of the engraving is tied directly to the quality of the image presented. Higher detail and better contrast produce better engravings. In terms of size, larger images work best. Please do not resize picture before emailing. File types we recommend are: JPG, JPEG, TIFF, and BMP.
