[QUOTE="lorenbrothers, post: 511227, member: 41042"] lets see... your list of various sizes is valid but anything other than a standard ratio (nowadays they call it 4:3 or 800x600 or whatever and that's it ... with old 35mm film it was 3:2 or 35mmx24mm) will be cropped by online printers so I don't see the point. Back in the good old days with a darkroom and an enlarger we used masking slides to set special aspect ratios and if that wasn't quite right we got out the cutter! My point still stands to the OP: set your dpi, adjust to fit the desired width (or height), and order the print. Use a paper cutter (or a pair of pinking shears if that's all you have) and make it the size you desire. It's simple ... really not complicated ... and answers his original question in easy to understand terms. I'm sticking with it :D [/QUOTE]
