Each stock photo in the ZandStudio.com Stock Imagery collection is offered as either a Royalty Free Photo or a Rights Managed Photo. When you license a Royalty-Free photo, you pay a one-time fee for an image. You can then use the image for different projects for an unlimited time period. You cannot sell a royalty free photo to someone else. You can include a royalty free stock photo as part of a product like the cover of a CD, graphics in software, etc.
The majority of the stock photos in our image library are “Rights Managed.” This means that you license the right to use the stock photo for a specific use for a defined time period (which is usually one year). For example, you purchase a license for a stock photo to be used in a brochure, quarter page in size, print run of 50,000 for one year. If you then need a different use, you will also need an additional license. For more details, see our Terms of use.

Q: HOW DO I DETERMINE WHICH FILE SIZE I NEED FOR MY PROJECT?

A: The optimal file size for your particular usage will depend on several factors including the size of your use and whether you are intending to crop the image. Here is some guidance:

Low Resolution
364 KB Image Size: 4" x 6" at 72 dpi / RGB
1.42 MB Image Size: 8" x 12" at 72 dpi / RGB
This size is intended for the following primary uses:

Web sites: general use as well as Flash movies, etc.
Multimedia, such as PowerPoint presentations.

Medium Resolution
5.7 MB Image Size: 16" x 24" at 72 dpi / RGB
Ideal for print usage of up to 4" x 6". If, for example, you are using the image on the inside of a brochure, relatively small, this is the perfect size (unless you are cropping and only using a portion of the image).

High Resolution
22.8 MB Image Size: 32" x 48" at 72 dpi / RGB or 7.5"x11.5" at 300 dpi
EXTREME RESOLUTION, print usage is suitable for full spread print reproduction where the image will be used LARGER than 4" x 6" (or if you are cropping the image). Similar to the 5.7 MB, these larger file sizes can be used relatively smaller-- in order to achieve maximum density and detail in the image.

How large can you go with these file sizes? Certainly up to 32" x 48". Larger than that will depend on several factors, including:

1.Cropping

Far and away the largest source of file-size confusion. Remember: If you are only using a portion of the image, you must calculate the size you are using based upon the size of the original image, not just the portion you are using.

2.Enlargement

Our larger image files have been used for everything up to and including billboards. However, the amount you can enlarge the image will be determined by a variety of factors, some of which are very subjective.
