photo cards not working???

[zacker]

im trying to make a card, i do not like the choices smug mug has (an option with nothing but my pic would be nice) as they are kinda cheesy..(sorry guys) anyhow, im trying to access the cards from the shopping cart and they wont show, its saying my 6x8 240 dpi photo is too small. all i want is a folded card with my photo on the outside, blank on the inside.

You can use your own photo. Try the "more" category.

I'm sorry you find all 115 cards we have to be cheesy :uhoh

Your photos should be 2400px on the long side for a 4x8 and 2000px on each side (or bigger) for the 5x7 foldeds. This is to ensure that the photo print quality matches the quality of the art.

The last card in the "more" category appears to be photo only.

Thanks Andy! I've been looking for this option. :D

Yeah. As I said there are gobs of cards that don't have cartoons - are you looking at each card?

UUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH! its gotta be me.. i must be missing something. I found the card andy..thanks a million! (the pic on the bg threw me off as did the dotted line circle on it..lol) anyhow, how big a photo, do you need to make a 5x7 portrait card? im using a 6x8 (6 wide, x 8 high) and it says the photo is too small... how does this work?

Zacker. I have answered this already :D

2000pixels on each side, or longer.

Do not crop them, that's making the photos smaller.
