I would like to crop my photo. What dimensions should it have?Updated 6 days ago

The dimensions vary according to the number of pieces of the puzzle you'd like to create. Single-photo puzzles use a 3:4 or 4:3 aspect ratio, while the aspect ratios used for collage puzzles are varied. The clearest puzzles will be created with photos that come as close as possible to the print dimensions listed below. Exceeding these dimensions may result in compression, so if you can't reach the exact dimensions for your puzzle size, it's better for your image to be slightly smaller. The dimensions are listed below by puzzle piece count and apply to single photo puzzles (smaller photos are needed for collage puzzles and vary by template):

  • 48, 100, 200 or 500 pieces: 5681 × 4279 pixels 
  • 1000 pieces, SMART SORTED, or Advent: 7551 × 5681 pixels
  • 1000 XXL or 2000 pieces: 10677 × 8031 pixels

*Please note that the very edges of the design are sometimes cut off during the production process. We recommend keeping the most important parts of your final design, both in the image and any custom text, away from the edges of your final design.
