Photo Tips

  1. If you have a problem submitting a photo cropped from a larger photo, you may need to retake your photo in a smaller size or use a different photo editing tool.
  2. If you are having background issues, make sure you are using a plain, solid white, off-white or light blue wall. Doors or walls with paneling will not be accepted. Try using poster board as a background option.
  3. Photos taken with a cell phone may require better lighting.
