Judy, The dimensions you gave, i.e. 77 x 100, I assume are in pixels? With a file size of 50KB, it looks as if you may be able to resize it a little and still get reasonable definition. In any case, just open a new HTML page and place an img tag in it and add bigger width and height styles to it. Try and see how it will render before you go any further. Also try the opacity style to give it a faded look if you are printing text over it. Do the above in your browser before going any further.

The image is one of those "muted" rose pics that is supposed to look like an embossed (?) image. It's a silvery white (on a light silvery-gray background). She's going to try printing it on pastel colored paper. Should probably chg the bkg to white. Text should be okay. I'm more worried I will 'stretch' it too much, make it too blurred. Yes 77x100 is what Photoshop said for pixel dimensions. I'll check it on a browser. Anyone have a "quasi-spiritual" e.g. "beautifully-uplifting" image good to use for a funeral booklet? Judy
