I edited some photos in PicMonkey and put my signature in the corner and the photos have vignette on them. I have a photo lab I use and I have packages with several sizes offered. I want to put my edited photos in my packages... but they are too large and the vignette and some of my signature are cut off... I just want to find a way to shrink my photo so it will fit into the lab templates. I have tried resizing... doesn't really work for this. Any suggestions?

Without examples I can only guess but my guess is that your pictures are the wrong shape - a different aspect ratio. This can be fixed by setting the crop tool to the aspect ratio you want and cropping the image.

I looked at your web site and think that many of your pictures will be disappointing as prints as they are now.

Thank you.... I am not looking to crop them though I just need them to shrink to fit. The photos you probably saw are not the photos I am discussing.

Can you post the lab templates here, or maybe post a link to them?

I feel so dumb that I can't solve this issue. My intent is to send them to Nations Photo Lab. I have created my own packages to sell to my clients. We will just start with one package. It has 8 wallet, (4) 4x5 and (3) 4x6 (this order is 3 8x10 sheets). I am getting frustrated.

I sympathise with you. What exactly do they tell you? Did you ask specifically what happened to your order? Can you attach an example of a print that came back wrong?
