Do I need a digital Camera to take Photos of my items?
No. You can take pictures with a normal film camera and then ask you local camera store to put the images on to a Photo CD. You can then upload images directly from the CD. Images stored on a Picture CD are usually at a resolution of approx at 1024 x 1536 pixels (this is the width and height of the image) and in JPEG format. Mention that you require the images to be viewed on your PC. The quality of the pictures will be far better than is required to be viewed on the internet. We will reduce the image size if required and this will be done automatically during the upload process. Most pictures you see online will be resized to approx 533 X 400 pixels.
