Monogram

I made this monogram for my cousin - what do you think?

I did it in Photoshop - which I am a novice at - so it took me forever to figure out. My only problem seems to be that when I save it as a JPG, I think it prints a little blurry (or it could be my eyes from doing it so long! ).

Has anyone else had this problem?

Looks great! I still can't figure out how to make it. Even with the directions, it never seems to come out I wish I had photoshop, maybe it would have been easier.

I didn't change this - it just defaulted to 72...is that something I should be setting at the start? As I said, I am a novice at photoshop - this is my first project and I am just kind of learning as I go. TIA for any input!

Re: Monogram

72 is a low resolution, great for the internet, but not so great for printing, especially high-quality printing... if you blow it up any bigger than that original size, then it will get pixelated... whenever you start a new document, you should make the resolution 300... that is a pretty good average number...

since you already created the monogram, changing the resolution now, wont make teh quality better... you have to do it when you start...

Thank you so much! I created one from scratch with a resolution of 300 and it was much clearer!
