Actually "most" of designers are not worried if you do not see artifacts at 72. You just had luck to be noticed about :)
Not speaking for all, but probably there is a lot of designers which like the fact you cant see artifacts at 72 ;)

On the other hand there are designers which are very serious about quality of their work. If i remember correctly on design crowd preview is max: 1000x1000 pixels on 72 :) I do not do much work on design crowd, its more like my place to relax if i need it :)

Drop box is great solution, but i think this is bypassing design crowd (rules - i am not sure about this statement), so i do not know.

The viewing resolution is 1200px by 1000px at 300dpi.

Thanks,

Thank you Cyclops Graphics for that info.


example:
Your original file named: 574407_zoehairposterdraft_brief240757

original size is:
72 2025x2925

if i upsample it on 300:

on 300 the file is: 8438x12188

and preview is like Cyclops Graphics told us :)

and poster size: 27" x 40" without bleeds is :

300 - 8100x1200
size of empty document: 278.1M - Photoshop

edit: size of empty document: 278.1M - Photoshop - designer file.

Thanks for invite. think budget should be higher considering you have three items
that need to be designed. Please advise.

Thanks Pat

i cant support these all. not professional... you must give us links of photos which are hi-res. First upload 300dpi anything you want then we can start.

I appreciate the invite but the budget is much to low for all the work required. Best of luck.

HI hope yo well. Am in agreement with the other designers that the sizes of the some of the images are too small for the poster. meaning that when it is blown out it will most likely not look too good. The only good pic I see is the one of the girl looking back. This is just my idea of the story though I would need a high res pix of the girl looking back and the typewriter so that I can composite the poster. Also the If possible a better Pix of the boy

Can you please give feedback on my submission if its in the right direction so I can proceed with the other design requirements. Thanks
