If your question is not answered below or on our FAQs page, please use the question form at the bottom of this page.
1. Finding a Suitable Photo
The space you have for your photo is 2.25" inches wide and 1.875" inches tall (or 675px x 563px pixels at 300dpi). -please use these dimensions as maximums. Not matching the size to exactly those dimensions may distort your image, giving it a "funhouse mirror" look to your image. If the orientation of your image is landscape, size it according to the 2.25" (675px) width max. If the orientation of your image is portrait, size it according to the 1.875" (563px) height max. Black and white photos are popular, and color photos have a powerful impact. It's your choice. Just make sure it is clear, sharp and has suitable contrast. Washed out photos will give you washed out results.
2. Scanning the Photo Into Your Computer
To place an order at myJones you will need a copy of your photo on your computer. Scan your photos at 300 dpi. Then resize your photo according to the 2.25" inches (675px) wide and 1.875" inches (563px) tall guidelines.
You have two choices to fit your photo to the label size. You can either crop the photo using your favorite image editing tool, or you can resize your photo to fit within the label boundaries. It is your choice.
Hint: if the orientation of your image is portrait it will be better to crop rather than to resize it. This will ensure your photo is large enough to enjoy.
Save your photo on your computer in a place you will find it again. You will need it in the next step.
