Night Elf Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 My dd11, Allison, has been notified that her artwork for a contest in the American Girl magazine will be published in the November/December issue, barring any extraordinary circumstances. I need to sign and return the consent form by July 13th, and I only just got it yesterday! Anyway, they want a normal school-size photograph, whether professional or printed digitally on high quality photo paper. We're going to do the digital photo because we don't know how else to get a photo within the next day. So when I print it, what size do I make it?

Tiff in TX Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Congratulations to your daughter! What a wonderfull accomplishment.:hurray: I am not sure about the exact measurements, but I think that the normal size school pic is slighly smaller than a wallet size. Maybe someone else will come along with a more exact answer.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn. Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Congrats to your dd. Normal school size would be about 1 1/2" x 2". hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrid Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Congratulations! Give me a hint about the artwork; dd is a subscriber and always admires the artwork sent in by girls. We'll keep an eye out for your dd's submission! Astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardening momma Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Congrats to your dd. Normal school size would be about 1 1/2" x 2". hth It would be acceptable to send one a little larger, about 2x3, just in case. They'll have to scan the picture anyway, and if the one you send is too small for what they have in mind, they'll have to enlarge it, and lose quality.

Firefly Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 No idea about the school photo, but just wanted to say congratulations to your DD... what an accomplishment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinMominTX Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 That is so awesome! Congrats to your dd. I'd send in something at least 2x3. Make sure it is super high quality and then they can resize as necessary! Again, very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 How neat! Congratulations to your dd! Maybe you can remind us when the issue comes out so we can remember to look for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Elf Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Allie entered a design-a-cookie contest. I don't have a picture of it, just a xeroxed copy that A.G. sent back along with the consent form I had to sign. Allie called it a Smart Cookie and decorated it like a calculator. :tongue_smilie: I'll post a note when it is published. It's so cool! We took a digital picture and tried to print it on photo paper. Our printer is horrible though and the picture didn't turn out nicely. So I emailed the jpeg to A.G. and the lady wrote back saying she thought it would be fine.
