What is the recommended photo quality to use for a cover image?

Xbook Team February 13, 2010

When inserting your own images for the cover page you have several options.

You can choose for your image to cover the entire cover - in this case, the quality must be superb. For a portrait album cover the recommended size is at least a 6 Megapixel image (300 DPI).

Or you can insert your photo into one of the pre-designed covers. For this, a similar quality to that of any photo inside the album is required.

Or you can choose to have no image at all. You can either just have plain text, a plain colour (please select from menu for background colours), or you can choose one of our pre-designed images.

In all instances the software will warn you if the quality is too low.
