Ensuring your image has the right resolution is the key to creating a crisp, high-quality custom print. 📸 If an image is too small, it may appear blurry or pixelated when printed. Here’s everything you need to know about choosing the right resolution and how to check your image details.
Print Size | Minimum Resolution (Pixels) |
---|---|
8" x 10" | 800 x 800 |
10" x 12" | 1,000 x 1,000 |
13" x 13" | 1,000 x 1,000 |
12" x 16" | 1,000 x 1,152 |
16" x 16" | 1,152 x 1,152 |
25" x 17" | 1,728 x 1,152 |
20" x 30" | 1,380 x 2,020 |
25" x 25" | 1,728 x 1,728 |
44" x 22" | 3,096 x 1,512 |
Using images that meet or exceed these resolutions will help ensure clear and vibrant prints. If your image's resolution is lower than recommended, it may appear blurry or pixelated when printed.
How to Check Your Image’s Resolution
🔍 The best way to check your image resolution is by looking at the pixel dimensions. Follow these quick steps based on your device:
On a Smartphone (Most Common Method) 📱
✔ iPhone (iOS):
- Open the Photos app and select the image.
- Tap the (i) info button at the bottom.
- Look for Dimensions (e.g., 4032 x 3024 pixels).
✔ Android:
- Open the Gallery or Photos app and select the image.
- Tap More Options or Details.
- Look for the resolution in pixels (e.g., 4032 x 3024).
On a Computer 💻
✔ Windows PC:
- Right-click the image and select Properties > Details tab.
- Look for Dimensions (e.g., 4032 x 3024).
✔ Mac:
- Right-click the image and select Get Info.
- Look under More Info > Dimensions.
What If My Image Is Too Small?
If your image doesn’t meet the resolution requirements, here’s what you can do:
✔ Upload a higher-resolution version if available.
✔ Try a smaller print size—smaller prints require lower resolution.
✔ Take a new photo with better lighting and a higher-resolution setting on your camera/phone.
✔ Avoid using screenshots or social media downloads—these compress images and lower quality!
⚠️ Important: Screens make images look sharper than they actually are! Always check resolution before submitting your order.
