What is dpi ?
dpi refers to how much information (dots or pixels) per inch a photo has or prints at. Most top digital photographers give the following guidelines. 150 dpi is common for good photos from today's photo printers. Printing at anything higher than 220dpi does little else than waste ink. Magazine editors and prepress require 300 dpi. I personally use 180, 200 and 220 dpi. In my own blind tests I often go blurry before I can see the difference between 180 and 220. The majority of my photos can be printed at sizes up to 11 x 17 at 150 dpi or 8 x 12 at 200 dpi without additional processing. A little processing allows printing at much higher sizes. Some are less because of cropping. I once made a poster 26" x 22" from a photo. It was good enough to frame and now hangs in my living room.
Guidelines on the "use and sale of photos on the CivilWarP website"
Terms used;
"event photo" - a photo taken on public or private property at a reenactment or other publicly attended event where others are freely taking photos without prior permission.
"identifiable person(s)" - a person in the photo that can be identified by a disinterested third party such as a judge or a member of a jury.
1. I will never intentionally publish, share or sell any "event photo" that would embarrass or morally harm the person(s) in the photo or owning property in the photo.
2. I do not take, publish or sell "event photos" where a person(s) "reasonable expectation of privacy" has been violated.
3. I will never sell an "event photo" that depicts an identifiable person(s) to anyone except the people shown or their close associates or family unless given permission by the identifiable person(s) in the photo.
3a. an exception to #3 - news agencies that carry that event type. For example - a photo of a volleyball match with 'Volleyball Monthly'.
4. When selling or sharing an "event photo" I do not convey publishing, reproduction, or commercial rights to anyone without the identifiable person(s) permission (simple personal uses are always permitted and not being discussed here)
4a. an exception to #4 - news agencies that carry that event type have to be given publishing rights. For example - a photo of a volleyball match with 'Volleyball Monthly'.
5. I will refer all buyers of "event photos" to these first five guidelines and require that their purchase agrees with them. I will enclose a copy of these first five guidelines with every purchase.
6. I will remove an "event photo" from my website upon request if it meets ANY of the following criteria.
A. You point out a very good reason.
B. You represent a third (or greater) space of the photo.
