Photos must be in jpeg or bitmap format, not cut/pasted into a word document, but if you would like to submit a word template with captions and photos to show me the order you want it to be in, feel free to attach both the template and the individual photos. You can email me the photos directly or contact me for other options. FYI: If your camera is 3-megapixels or higher, you can assume your photos will work in the book. If you want to get a little more technical, make sure your photos are at least 2048 pixels wide or tall in order to look excellent in print.
