Hi Movieman {up}

I have found he best place to find decent sized photos is to go to : http://www.altavista.com and click on IMAGES on the bar at the top.

Then click on the SIZE scroll-down box and choose LARGE as the size of pic you want. Then enter the name of the celeb you want to find and submit it.

The pictures shown should then be big enough for you to print to a decent quality. 10x8 is very large though from a 72dpi picture file (which is the standard screen res picture), so you would need as larger size picture as possible.

If you have problems finding what you want, then try selecting MEDIUM as the picture size and only print out to 7x5".

Good luck!!!!

PS. You can do pretty much the same thing on Google, but I have found the picture selection on Alta Vista to be better!
