Uploading

what should I know before I upload my photograph?
We recommend image size of 640x480 pixels or higher. Minimum height 200 pixels. Minimum width 200 pixels, but the bigger the better for us to work with:

Minimum Size

Images need to be clear, well lit, in focus and at eye level.

Full body pictures are ok, as long as the picture was taken at eye level. we'll crop the picture and digitally extract the head. Pictures taken from the back should also be taken at eye level.

For best results, color photographs are preferred, although black and white will also work.
The quality of your doll (face) is directly proportional to your picture quality.

If you upload a photograph where there are several people, then on Paypal's checkout you will be given the opportunity to leave us a note. Here you can clarify which person in the photograph you want us to make a doll of. Return to top there are lots of different kinds of computer image - which should i use?

TinyPocketPeople currently only accepts images in the following formats:

JPEG (.jpg), JPG (.jpg), PNG (.png) and GIF (.gif)

We recommend that you use JPEG images as they provide the best trade-off between image size and quality, but you are free to use PNG and GIF images also. Return to top how large can my picture file be?
Your image file must not exceed 10MB, which is more than what you need for a JPG or a GIF images. Return to top when I try to upload a picture, I get a "page not found" or "server not found" error. What's wrong?
This probably means that your picture is taking too long to upload. Your file is bigger than the maximum allowed size of 10MB. You should make your file smaller. Return to top why am i'm having trouble uploading?
Be sure you are uploading an allowable file format: .JPG, .JPEG, .PNG or .GIF file that the file is 10MB or less in size.

Be sure the file has the correct extension at the end of the file name.

Be sure there are not any weird characters in the file name like *, @ or ?. Return to top
