how big can i print this?

[otispunkmeyer]

got a shot that was originally 10mp, then i cropped into it to ger the shot looking how i wanted it. however the shot is now only around 2.8MP

so how big could i get that without it being noticably bad?

the shot will be used to produce a board of so far unknown size, it will then be signed and given to a bunch of team members and probably then hung up on display so really its going to be both close range viewing and long range.

im skeptical of how big that will go to be honest.

that is the shot in question, obviously its about half as big as the original here


how do i find out how many PPI this image is? photoshop is only saying 72 like it does for all of them and if i double it to say 150PPI the image gets twice as big... can i just do that? just double the size of the picture?

eaisily 13/19 id say if you kept the origional file in good shape

If you have just cropped the picture, then you should be able to do at a minimum 11x14 and probably 13x19. I like using InfranView since you can set the PPI for it to print at quite easily.
