Image Requirements

PLEASE NOTE THAT IMAGES LESS THAN 60k WILL HOLD UP YOUR ORDER!

• PhotoThrow accepts images with the following extensions: JPG . We recommend using JPG formats because of file size. (GIF images will not reproduce as well as other formats because of color compression. Bitmaps and Tiffs are far too large in size) Too small is also not good.

• Files must be between 60k and 5 mb (depending on product). The upload time will depend on the file size and your Internet connection speed. Please be patient when uploading a large image.
• PLEASE NOTE THAT IMAGES LESS THAN 60k WILL HOLD UP YOUR ORDER!

• Please try to use the best-quality image possible. Check the individual product descriptions for recommended resolution. If your image is below the minimum resolution/size requirements, do not simply increase the size in your editing software. You must either rescan the image or use a higher-quality image.

• When scanning in photographs, please use a resolution of  200-300 d.p.i.. When taking digital images, set your camera at the highest possible resolution. You can always reduce the resolution later. Low-resolution images cannot be increased without loss of image quality.             
•  What is the recommended maximum number of images I can have in my PhotoThrow?   The rule of thumb for this is quite simple.1-3-5 or 1 image for a pillow (our smallest item), 3 for a 30x40 and 5 for the 40x60.  While photos that exceed the the 1-3-5 rule can be made, the reproduction quality diminishes with each additional image and these orders will be made at the buyers risk.

• Your image will be reproduced as it appears. In some cases, we may crop the image for size, to fit the product you order. However,  PhotoThrow will not color correct, retouch or combine images.

• Close-ups and images with bright colors will produce the best results.

Images That Work	Images That Don't
Good Light and Color The image is well lit with bright colors.	Bad Light The image is poorly-lit with shadows.
Good Cropping The photo is cropped to show the subject you want.	Not Cropped This image has other people in the frame. (We will not crop other people out of images for you.)
Good Framing The subject is close-up.	Bad Framing The subject is too far away. (We will not crop photo for close-up.) Enlarging the subject will result in a poor quality image.
