Is my image's quality good enough?

If you have doubts about whether your photo is large enough to fit on the product, all you have to do is start customising the product and add this image to your design.

Depending on the size of the image, the personalisation area and the type of product, the editor will let you scale it up to the maximum possible size. For small products, almost any image will suffice in size. For large format products, it will be important to choose a large image. In case the image is smaller than the product, this message will appear: ‘The image has been resized to the largest possible size that the image quality allows.". If you get this message, and in the editor preview you see that the image does not take up as much space as you want, we recommend that you look for a larger image.

Therefore, if the image is of sufficient quality, the editor will let you enlarge the image a lot. If it is of poor quality, the editor will only let you zoom up to a certain size.

The larger the size of the original image, the higher the quality, because if the image is large and of good quality, it will use the maximum resolution range, and if it is of fairer quality, it will use the minimum resolution, which is sufficient for the product to look good and not pixelated.

In case your design is composed of many photos, the print resolution of your design will be set to the image with the lowest resolution of all the images in the composition.

It is understood that in addition to this factor, other factors that cannot be controlled by the editor, such as images that are not out of focus, not too dark, etc., are important for the product to look good.

Advice

When creating a personalised product with an image or photo that you have on your device, whether mobile, PC or tablet, we give you the following advice:

It is NOT necessary to prepare an image or photo with the exact dimensions of the product, as, when using our online editor, you will be able to upload the photo and adjust it as you want it to look on the product. If your photo is wider or taller than the product, simply move and resize the image to fit the product the way you see fit.

In terms of image weight, the editor supports images of almost any image format(see more info), up to 25 MB in weight. However, most photos and images do not usually exceed this size. Otherwise, the recommended size of a photo will depend on the product to be personalised.

In general, most of the images or photos that we all take with our mobile phones, digital cameras or other devices, are usually adequate and sufficient for most products, unless they are too small or of low quality. On the other hand, if it is an image downloaded from a website, the quality or weight may be too low. Also make sure that your photo is not blurred or of poor quality, as the original image will be printed on the product.
