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.

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 250 pixels wide and at a resolution of 72 pixels per inch.

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 can sometimes 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, so if you're in any way 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
  • Please email your files to us. When the total size of an email is going over 10MB, we'd ask that you send us multiple emails. If you are working on a dial-up internet connection, you may want to keep total email size below 500kb anyhow. If you don't, emails have a tendency not to go
  • Alternatively by CD in the post

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.

Photography 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
