What kind of photos are best to use on a Personalized Photo Blanket? Any photo will work - black & white or color. But keep in mind, the better the photo, the better the finished blanket. A clear (in focus) photo is necessary. We will notify you if the quality of the photo prohibits making a great quality blanket.
Photo Orientation: We will compose your photo to fill the blanket as completely as possible. Usually if your photo is a portrait then the blanket will be made in a vertical format. If the photo is a landscape, it will be made in a horizontal format.
Contrast: The main subject of the photo should be different in color and contrast then the background of the photo (i.e. - it is difficult to see a black dog sitting on a black sofa in a dark room). If the background is a similar color and you still wish to use that photo we would suggest you select the remove background option leaving only the main subject.
Subject Matter: The main subject of the photo should occupy about 75% of the photo (i.e. - a close up photo). We will crop your photo for you to get the best image possible for your blanket. If you do not wish for us to crop your photo then please indicate this in your order.
Number of people/pets/etc: For best results the fewer the better. The more faces in the photo the smaller each face will be on the blanket and the less detail of each face. However, 2-5 faces works well if you are not doing a team photo.
Fancy Stuff: Please do not send photos with borders, fade-outs, snow effects or shadow effects as they will not duplicate well in the blanket.
Can you put more than one photo on the blanket? Yes. Please see our Collage Blanket for more options.
Can you put custom text on the blanket? Yes. Please use the Text option and provide us the text in the Text Box in the order form. Border text is white is usually white when used with a black border.
Digital Photos: We prefer to receive digital photos via email or the Upload Tool since it is much faster to process your order and less expensive for you. It also keeps your photo safely at home with you. For best results the digital scan should be no less than 300 dpi (medium resolution ) at full image size (7" x 9").Do not send 72 dpi (low resolution) images. Digital Photos of 200kb to 2MB size will produce the best result. Cell phone and other low resolution images of 72 dpi will not work well because the resolution is so poor that when the picture is enlarged for the blanket it becomes very grainy. A JPEG file format is preferred but we can work with most common file formats.

Physical Photos: Physical photos of all sizes will be accepted, but the sizes that make for the best results are 3x5, 4x6, 5x7 or 8x10, the larger ones being the best. Polaroid photos will work, but they are not as clear as traditional photos. For an additional cost we will scan your photo and return it to you. Please send your photo with a copy of your order in a Post-Office approved photo-mailer or equivalent (a hardened type cardboard envelope). This will ensure your photograph does not get damaged in the mail. Be smart and send your photo via registered mail to decrease the chance of your photograph getting lost.
