online photo album question

I scanned some of my daughters proofs into my computer and ordered some reprints from CVS just to see the quality. Boy was I surprised. They came out so blurry..........I don't know if I did something wrong when I scanned them. On the order from it had an exclamation point next to the pictures I ordered saying something out the resolution not being right for the 4x6 picture. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I don't want to order an online album and have the pictures come out blurry. Thanks.

When you scan and save the pictures you need to make sure they are at least 300dpi otherwise they will come out blurry.

HOw do I do that? Is there something when I scan them in that asks the DPI? I'm not great at the computer especially when it comes to the pictures. Thanks.

It will be in the program on your computer. Some programs have the resolution settings as low, medium and high if they don't have 300 dpi.

Also Don't enlarge or order the photo Bigger than it's orginal size that will also make for a blurry pic.
