Photos for index cards

Where do you guys find your photos online to make index cards?

google image search or mlb.com / roster / player page / photos

Cool. Thanks. So how do you print them? I can't print any of the pics I find.

I guess Google Images is not a good idea. None of the pics would print and it messed up my printer. Good thing I fixed it.

a jpg is a jpg. The fact you got it from google could not have messed up your printer.

What I do is put what I want to send out on a disc and then go to my local Office Depot to get them printed on 8x10 card stock. I usually have them blown up as big as possible to fit most of the page..either baseball cards from my collection or cards/photos I found online and right-click saved the pics.

Do NOT use Kinko's or Staples. Kinko's will not print anything..they scream about copyright violation. One time I wanted to print a photo of my neighbor's kid with Lou Piniella I took at Rays training cap. Because Piniella was in uniforn, Kinko's said it was a copyright violation. Staples charges you for them picking up the disk with their hands, putting in their computer, clcking the mouse, etc. ("EASY" :laugh ).

I plan to start posting my photos on another thread so you can see how the prints come out.

Good luck!

"Kinko's will not print anything..they scream about copyright violation."

Geez! I've had the exact opposite experience with Kinko's...then again, I'm friendly with the owner of the local place. He's helped me blow up a few nice Steve Dalkowski photos that I've gotten signed. So far I have Stockton, Pensacola (tough find!), Aberdeen, Tri-City, Rochester, and Columbus plus the Orioles...anyone know of a photo of Steve with the Kingsport Orioles in 1957? He debuted there and he said he remembers being lined up for the team photo. There's gotta be one that exists.
