Photopass dowload question

[Teacherali1]

Please help. We want to download a few pictures from Disney Photopass. When looking at our cart in check out it shows that the photos we are downloading are 4x6. Does this mean that when we download, this will be the only size we can have? Will we be able to edit to different sizes and print like other normal downloads?

Be careful if you have borders, printing in a dimension that isn't that same ratio as a 4x6 will crop the border. You can make them as large as you want, I think up to like 16x20 before they get grainy. 8x12 will give you the exact same image as the 4x6, but an 8x10 will is narrower and and will crop a bit off the sides of the photos as with any photo. This isn't important if you don't have borders but is if you do.

I downloaded all my pictures as 4x6 (didn't notice the option to do any differently) but then used them in digital scrapbooks in various sizes and printed in 5x7 or 8x10 size just as I would any picture from my own digital camera and noticed no problems. I printed a 5x7 with a border and don't see any problems with cropping, but my 8x10 only had a digital sticker, not a border, so I don't know if that would have printed badly.

The ones with borders all the way around will be affected if you save as a 4x6 and then print later as an 8x10. For the photos I knew I eventually wanted to enlarge and frame, I downloaded and saved them both as 4x6s and 8x10s. (Some of the photos I ended up editing and downloading three times - 4x6 without a border, 4x6 with a border, and 8x10 with border.) we had some incredibly precious photos of our three year old's first trip, and I probably went overboard, but I'll have them forever now in whatever way I want to print them later!

Thank you for all the information. It is exactly what I needed to know.
