Additional Info Porcelain Portraits

For the best results, please supply us with an original photo, or email us a high resolution copy.  Your photo should be scanned into your computer at no less than 600 dpi for best results. 

Also, please avoid these common problems:

  • Writing on the back of the photo, staples, paperclips or tape will leave marks and will result in poor quality reproductions or extensive and costly retouching.
  • Do not cut or draw directly on the original to indicate the finished size or area you wish to reproduce.  Please make a photocopy to show exactly how you would like it cropped or sized.
  • Undersized photographs.  Please submit an original with the subject as large and as clearly in focus as possible.  If the enlargement is too great from the original to the finished size, there will not be enough detail to reproduce a clear portrait.  It is usually better to reduce an image than enlarge it.
  • Textured photographs or grainy photos will reproduce with the exact same imperfections.
  • Low resolution digital images will reproduce with a jagged look.

Sizing Information

These sizing charts can be printed to help you determine what size porcelain you would like to order.   Simply right click on the image and print it full size.
