Persnickedy Prints for your digital layouts? I uploaded a bunch yesterday, that were originally saved for uploading here at ACOT. They were designed in 300 dps, but when I save for web, I use 600x600, maximum (I'm on PSE 11).

The message I'm getting is that they all have too low a resolution. does this mean I have to resave all of the JPEG's without resizing for Web? Are they resized when I upload to the site at Persnickedy?

You are speaking a foreign language to me. Sorry, I can't help you.

Once you resize them, the original resolution and detail is gone. They can't resize back up again without it appearing all grainy. I save all mine in 300dpi, or 3600x3600. When I resize to post online, I keep both.

And actually, when I post here, I don't resize. The software for this site resizes the layout for you.

So the answer is yes...you will have to resave your jpg's from your PSE files at a higher resolution if you want quality prints.

That's what I was afraid of. Guess I need to change my pattern for the future. Thanks for the FYI on the site here at ACOT. When I first started here, you had to resize everything down to 600x600. Glad to know that's not needed anymore. One less step for me.

I'll be spending most of the day re-saving a lot of layouts!

At least you saved the PSE files!

Thanks for the great info Nancy. I haven't done any digital in a while and have forgot a lot of things!!
