[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 580870"] I have an opportunity to order a digital file -OR- a digital print of a black and white photograph from the late '70s that I wish to give as a gift to my mom. I am happy to order the print itself - but I think an 8 x 10 is probably too large and I like the idea of making a few copies to give to my brothers... I think I would want to have 5 x 7s or 4 x 6 prints made. Which size digital file should I order? Digital file: 72dpi, 8x10: $20 per image 300dpi, 8x10: $30 per image 600dpi, 8x10: $50 per image Photoprint: 8x10 in.: $30.00 per image 11x14 in.: $35.00 per image 16x20 in.: $60.00 per image 20x24 in.: $85.00 per image (Background: I was searching for a picture of my brother online for a project I am doing (the picture had been published in a newsletter) because I couldn't find it on my computer. I couldn't find it online so I tried adding details to the search, city name, putting his full name in quotes, etc. I was STUNNED when a reference to a late 1970's photographic portrait of my late Dad (brother's namesake) popped up in the city's Historical Society's archives.
