FOR KODAK EASY SHARE, PICASA, AOL or HOTMAIL USERS, please use the Instructions found below in RED. VERY IMPORTANT!

If using another photo program to email, check in "Preferences," "Settings," "Photos" or something similar within your program to see if there is a setting regarding the size of the photo you are emailing to ensure you send at original highest resolution.

Please, do NOT email us cropped or edited photos to design from as any editing usually results in low resolution photos that we can not work from. You can send us cropped or edited versions along with your original photos to show us how you'd like your photos cropped or edited. But we NEED your ORIGINAL photos to work from.
