Digital Layouts - Small Prints Not Clear I have a Canon D60 and use PSP 7. I have designed a lot of great layouts for Senior portraits for 8x10's of serveral different poses, but when I size down my shots and then print, the smaller photos are not clear. Any help with this would be great!

Two possibilities that I know of: If by "sizing down", you mean changing the dimensions only (Resample turned off), then you're doing the right thing. When you decrease the image size, the resolution SHOULD go up, because you're squeezing the same pixels into a smaller space. If you are making a collage or placing pictures onto a blank page, the resolution of your page should be the same as the res of the pictures you're placing on it. If you're printing on an inkjet, these photos and the page onto which you're placing them ought to be at least 240 ppi GOING INTO the printer. 300 is fine, more may be overkill, but doesn't hurt anything.
