JUST A GOOD TO KNOW for those who may not already

when you are creating something in any photo editor program for printing
* make sure your color settings are on cmyk : those are colors they use for printing on less you are working with someone that needs something just two colors so the print cost less then you use pantone colors (i can explain those later if anyone wants to know)

* If its for the web make sure you use colors in rgb

* if you are gonna use images like photos for printing go to image size in ps , look where it says document zise and a bit lower resolution put 300 For web the resolution should be 72

* if you look for images in google or any search engine like that, make sure you change it to searching for large or extra large images you will get better quality for big prints the image wont look pixelated (although if you are doing something for pay or to call your own you should never use pics from places like that could cause trouble). go to stock sites, a good one we use in class is sxc.hu usually the top line is to buy but the rest you just read the peoples rules.
