Quote:Hi Peter,

If oyu are uploading your work to the website, please upload your images as jpegs and save as a jpeg file type. Only save your work as TIFFs if you are sending it on on a disc to us. As long as your image is of a high resolution and a good printable size, it doesnât really matter what its specific dimensions are.

Hope this helps.
