How to Send us Graphics:
At the end of the day we'll try and work
with whatever you've got! However, from experience we know
that some things work better than others.
We've given some guidelines below, as to how best to send
images to us. If you haven't a clue what we're talking about,
contact us (info@marsbrook.com)
and we'll work out a solution. We've listed the options of
how to send graphics to us in order of how we prefer to receive
them!!
Electronically:
Typically photographs are best stored in JPEG format due to
its ability to handle colour so well. All other images are
best sent in GIF format. Images should be no less than 350
pixels wide and at a resolution of 72 pixels per inch which
is the size used for all Photo Gallery shots.
| File Format |
- JPEG preferred for colour photos
- GIF preferred for all other images
- BMP is also fine and we can handle
TIFF, EPS and native Adobe Illustrator file
- Note: We operate in a Windows PC
environment, hence MAC files may be a problem.
|
| File Size |
- For the Web all files will be a
maximum of 50kb, hence if you're able to send a file
of no larger than this, that will help.
- We want your images to look fantastic
when transferred to the Web hence, if you're uncertain
about how to compress a graphics file (or you don't
have a graphics package to do this with), please send
the original file to us and we will happily do this
for you

| How to get
them to us |
- Email - for 50kb files this is
great, if you are not sending through compressed files,
you will likely need to send us a number of emails
ideally of no more than 1 to 2MB in size each in order
to speed their delivery and ensure no problems. If
you are using a Hotmail account, your limit will be
1MB
- Floppy Disk or CD

We may be able to accept photos in other
formats but please check in advance of sending them to us.
Original Photographs:
Alternatively you can send us your actual photographs. If
you do this, please keep the following in mind
- Post them in a sturdy cardboard backed
envelope
- Include your contact details with them
so we know which advert they are for. Reference them to
the caption names / numbers on the order form
- We normally retain photographs in case
we ever need to re-scan them, however if you would like
them returned to you, please state this and include a stamped
addressed envelope.
Photographs from a Brochure:
We can scan pictures from your brochure, but we would recommend
wherever possible that the original photograph or drawing
is used. A scan from a brochure will never be as sharp as
the original. If you are using a brochure however, please
indicate the exact pictures you want scanned referencing them
to the order form caption names / numbers
If using the post, please send all items
