    This should help if you're a Photoshop/Elements user - I've no idea of Lightroom I'm afraid!

    Adobe Photoshop Method
    1. With image open in Adobe Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) select the "Image > Image Size" menu option (may be "Image > Resize > Image Size" in Photoshop Elements).
    2. In the image size dialog window, deselect the "Resample Image" checkbox (make sure there is no checkmark in that box).
    3. In the "Resolution" box type in 300 (or whatever DPI you want). Click the "OK" button
    4. Your image DPI has now been set.
    5. Go back into "Image" > "Image Resize" and check that you're image is not smaller than 10x8 or 12x8 depending on what ratio image you are entering. If it is lower, then reselect the "Resample Image" checkbox, choose from the drop-down the best fit (whether you are enlarging or reducing) and then type in the image dimensions size box the size you need.

    I am sure that it will be OK, probably be a bit below 300dpi but it will be close enough.

    If you do find a bigger version I will use it but don't sweat it.

    Better resolution image just sent ;)

    Hi,

    Apologies for being late!

    Hope I'm still OK to be included?

    The online form has been filled out, the payment for 2 copies has been sent and my photo has been emailed along with a title and description - hope that's everything.

    Not sure if I can make the book launch, I have a wedding on the same day :( depends on what time the book launch is at, the earlier the better for me, haha.

    Thanks to all the organisers!! :)

    How cool and professional receiving a proof page! Nice job, good work!
    Yet, sorry for asking -i know you are already putting plenty of work and effort into this- but could there be no capitals in my name either?
    picaaf/aafke bakker would look perfect to me.
    Thanks!

    Just thought it was an easy way to show everyone their own layout and get corrections before it goes to press. Proofs are at full print resolution which will allow printing of personal pages.

    Are there any late spots left? I'm sure I can rustle up one of my recent images in a few moments. I'm pretty new to photography but happy to participate if an image is needed and purchase a couple of copies.

    OK excellent, just filled the form out there now. One question, I'm a bit clueless to exactly what 300ppi is, if the original picture is 4608 x 3456 will that do?
