One more newbie question.
I'm planning to use 15 photos in the 20 x 30" collage. Should I resize
each individual photo that I scan? As you suggested, I'll be scanning at
the maximum resolution which is 2400 dpi.
Actually, it sounds like the photo site is creating the collage from
15 photos that you provide, right?
If that's the case, then each individual photo in the 20"x30" collage
will not be larger than about 5"x8", so any resolution of 1200x1800 or
more should be plenty. In fact, uploading photos of any greater
resolution would just be a waste of time, since the collage will not
show any more detail.
Something to be careful about is the color balance of the photos.
If they are not similar in color balance (like similar flesh tones),
the collage will accentuate the differences when the photos are
justaposed.
