This photo is saved at 72 dpi,
which is perfect for web sites and computer resolution images. It will work
great for screen-based non-print use such as web sites, web design or
powerpoint templates, software applications etc.
If you do need to print this image, you should download the larger
image which is normally available on this page, or alter the DPI of this
smaller image to at least 150 or preferably 300 dpi.
This image will print at: 3.00"
x 2.00" at 300 dpi

lower than 150 dpi for printing or the image will be less clear and begin
to appear "jaggy" at lower dpi.
About JPG, PDF, PSD and PNG formats
JPG, PNG, PSD and PDF files are bitmap formats that
cannot be sized up without quality loss. We do not recommend increasing the
pixel size of these formats.
About Printing and DPI
It is important to understand that dpi (dots
per inch) is only a setting in the image file that tells the printer
how to print the image - at higher or lower resolution.
More pixels = better printing resolution basically. Smaller pixel size
images are not meant for printing unless you are printing at very small
sizes because there is not enough pixel data for a good crisp printed
image. The same image will look crisp on a web site because web site
resolution is much much lower than what you need for most print
