How to make a signature that fits into a dotPhoto signature signature block

• Sign a piece of paper, and scan the paper or take a picture of it with your camera phone.
• The signature block is 540 dots wide by 209 dots tall for the 8"x4" card shown above, and is 800x300 dots for 5"x7" folding cards.
• Save as a JPG and upload to your dotPhoto account -- perhaps to an album called Signature.

What if I don't want to add a signature?  Use a blank block.

Sometimes our cards check to make sure that all the photos are filled. Since the signature looks like a photo to the machines, add a blank signature block if you're going to sign the cards yourself. The is a blank signature attached to this FAQ for your convenience.
