Hi johnjames!

I find the pictures on the internet (Yahoo Image Search or fansite galleries) and then I either print them on my computer or send them to online digital development companies :D

Hi johnjames,

When I send a photo to a celebrity it's always a photo which I print up myself. I find a picture which I like then I download it to my computer & then I print it up onto HP glossy photo paper.

I use Google to search for photos but beforewarned, if you decide to print up your own pictures, many pictures online use a low resolution & when printed to photo paper might end up looking fuzzy or showing pixels.

The Internet Movie Database located at http://www.imdb.com/ has high quality pics & they look great when printed onto glossy photo paper. Another website which as high quality pics is at http://elegancepixelfied.com/photos.htm .

Hi johnjames :D

When I want to send a celeb a photo to sign, I do a google image search for the celeb and choose large images. This filters out all of the low quality images and gives you only high resolution images... which will look nice whether you print them on your own glossy photo paper or if you have them printed by an online photo company like walmart.com or snapfish.com. I have mine printed as 8x10's from walmart.com and they look amazing!! Hope this helps!! Good luck!! :mrgreen:

I usually get them from DVD photo galleries. Also official websites and Alta Vista Image Search & picsearch are very good.
