Photo or Photocard?

Unread post by Beire753 »

I usually send out an 8 x 10 inch picture, but because of the costs (shipping & the making of) I'm going to send out smaller things (lower shipping costs).
So here's my dilemma: A 3.5 inch picture or a photo card?
What do you guys think is best?

honestly its all about what YOU want. its true that it lowers the shipping costs but in my own prefrence i love 8x10 photos because i like how they look when i display them. if it all about the money and not being able to afford to always send 8x10's then yeah 3x5's is a good idea OR you could just send 4x6's then buy a 4x6 photo album {up}

and also you could just send 8x10's to tha MAIN PEOPLE that you {??} {??} {??}

hope this helps. {up} good luck.

3x5s and even 4x6s are too small. To cut costs, I send out 5x7s.
