Default Please could someone help!! :(

I have someone from a limited edition image company interested in buying some of my images!

But....I have a BIG problem! He has asked me to send him the original photos, resized to 300 ppi and 420mm x 297mm. I have tried doing this on Elements, but when I change the mm size to the size he wants, the ppi change to a much lower value than 300!

I am also worrying, because some of the photos he is interested in are 'altered images' and I did the altering on Flickr, which has obviously compressed the picture to a much smaller size (but I didn't realise this at the time!). So these photos I have to tell him that he can't use...How embarassing and I am very, very stressed! I have been waiting so long to get someone to possibly buy some of my images and now it seems I have messed it all up!

You could always try some interpolation software to increase both the pixel density and the physical size. I've used Alien Skin's 'Blow Up 2' with some reasonable results for my 'arty' stuff. Not tried it out on anything as exacting as a photo though.

Try out the demo from here>>>>>>> http://www.alienskin.com/blowup/

Hi Sally, there is one program that I know MAY help - if you have Photoshop, Aperture or Lightroom. It is called Genuine Fractals 6 and comes from OnOne software. It is expensive, but they do have a thirty day free trial.
