    Ok so for my friends 21st birthday I am hoping to make a photo collage in Photoshop and print it as a poster.

    However, I'm not quite sure of the settings! I'd appreciate any advice!

    The finished poster will be 60 x 90 cm (610 mm x 915 mm), thats an aspect ratio of 2/3. The website says that the minimum resolution is 2402 x 3602 pixels.

    My photoshop document is currently at these settings:
    Document size: 916mm x 610.55mm,
    Resolution 150 pixels/inch
    Pixel dimensions: 5409x3606 pixels

    Is this ok? Or does the resolution need to be higher for a photo print (300??) I am above the minimum resolution according to the website but I'd really like to double check with you guys because I'm in Germany and can't make it back for the party and I really really want this poster to come out well especially since it's costing so much!!

    Tanks a million guys! :D

    Res seems twice as large as the minimum so good to go, posters are designed to be viewed from a few feet away so dont worry too much about dpi
