Im Confused about istock sizes

[Olive_Oil]

can anyone help? Do i need extra small, small, med or what? how do i know what size i need? :unsure:

[Tanya]

what size would you like :cheesy:

[Ravenfire]

I normally go for small but it does depend on the size of the image you want to put on your site

[curlywurly]

Oh, I'd love to be an extra small.....don't know about my site...;)

[Tanya]

I would go for small

[Olive_Oil]

ok small it is! thank you :kisshands:

[Daffs]

Depends if you would want to use it for print later on...

[Olive_Oil]

no its just for the site daffs. do you have to have it bigger if you want to print?

[Tanya]

throw a spanner in the works :laugh: :fryingpan:

[Daffs]

no its just for the site daffs. do you have to have it bigger if you want to print?

If you want to print, I'd get a 300dpi one, depends how big you want to print it though..all sorts of considerations but if it's just web res then as long as the smallest is no smaller than you want it on your site, that will be fine :happy72:

I always go for the 1 credit option - be it x-small or small :cheesy:

Just to be awkward I get the bigger ones then I reduce their size in photoshop to fit the site, that way if I want to use them in printed matter I can do.

As I say, I'm awkward!!!

Not awkward, that is forward thinking! I do it too now but I learned the hard way :cheesy:

[Tanya]

I think Dreamstime is cheaper than istock

aw Daffs I think you may be right! it will take much longer then wont it?

OK next question - is there anyway I can retract that rather shirty email I just sent them? 123rolleye111

[funkydorydawn]

You've just reminded me - I have a photo of fairy cake which you can have for nothing, if you like. I'll email it to you - use it if you like, if not then no bother :happy72:
