Printing 101
Question:
Can I print the photos from the website and will they look good?

Answer:
You can print them but they may look fuzzy. (It's what we call pixelated.)

Why? Because web graphics and photos are usually saved at a resolution (how many pixels or dots make up a picture) of 72 ppi. This is standard to keep the total size of the website as low as possible.

Printing resolution for an inkjet requires about 150 dpi and will look reasonably good when printed on an inkjet on glossy paper. Don't try to enlarge the picture.

I like 200 dpi because it gives me some room to enlarge and/or crop the photo without losing clarity.

Commercial printing (just in case you ever wanted to know) usually requires between 260, 300, or higher dpi for photos. Lineart is a whole different story.

Hello All:

Suzy Smith and I are looking forward to receiving some great photos and comments about the Class of '65 - 40th Reunion that has just taken place.

Since I was not able to attend, this will be kind of a virtual reunion for me and for other classmates that were unable to make it to the Golden Triangle. Although, I would love to post every photo sent to me...there is a bandwidth limitation so if you'll pick out the best of the best that would do the trick. Clear, unfuzzy shots would be best, I can only do so much sharpening without ruining it.

A few things will make posting items received a lot easier.
Photos can be submitted in one of three ways.

If from a Digital Camera:
You can e-mail digital photos in the jpeg format, which is the most common format for digital cameras or
if you have hard copy you can either scan them, save as jpeg and send as attachment  or
send them to me with a self addressed stamped envelope to assist with returning them.
Do not embed photos in a word processing program and send it. Thanks!

If the photos do not come through, which has happened...it may be that your ISP has a size limitation and you may have to send one at a time, dependent on how large the photos are. I generally don't have trouble receiving them as I'm on cable. If your computer has a virus however, Comcast will kick it out and I'll never see hide nor hair of them.

Very Important: Please identify the people in the photo if at all possible. Standard Left to Right to avoid confusion. If you can also provide the Date and Place that would be a real plus. Captions are a wonderful thing.

Example: Left to Right: Jane Doe, Alex Whomever, and Lucky Smith, Thursday, August 4th, at the "Old Towne Bar & Grill".

Text: E-mail or
if you type it up in a word processor, save it in the .txt, .rtf or .doc format and send as an e-mail attachment. Please note everything will be reformatted to conform to the web page.
