Tips & ideas
Recommended minimum resolution of the images
The printing result strongly depends on the resolution of the photographs. For the single Photo Pairs cards we recommend an image size of at least 810 x 810 pixels.
Important: Please ensure that no faces can be cut off. After having uploaded your photos to the preview, just double click on each photo and put the persons/objects in the middle by shifting the cutting lines with your mouse button pressed. If your picture is smalle than the card, please reduce the picture area until there are no more white lines visible. Your photos must not have a border.
Please also take care that your photographs have a sufficient sharpness and be sure that it has not been underexposed. If there should be any doubt about the quality of some of your pictures, please send us these pictures by e-mail and wait for our reply before placing an order. We will be glad to check your images beforehand.
Price-performance tip
We would like to introduce the Photo Pairs game with 72 cards as the price-performance winner. It happens that customers inform us that they do not have that many photographs and ask us what to do.
In that case we would like to explain that images with e.g. a shell, an animal or a flower make a good figure on the Photo Pairs game cards as well. Why not going outside and shoot a few pictures, the cards do not have to contain only faces.
Creating tip:
- Create a photo pairs game with pictures showing a certain theme for a party, a stag or hen night or a special gift occasion such as a birthday, Christmas or Valentine's Day. Your friends will be impressed, guaranteed! Another brilliant idea: A Photo Pairs with the faces of all the family members; grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters and their friends.
- After having uploaded your photos, you can edit the cards by double-clicking on each photo in the preview. This will prevent people's faces from being cut off, for example.
- With the selection of your photographs you decide how difficult the Photo Pairs game is going to be. Card pairs with one-coloured backgrounds are easier to recognize than card pairs with many different colours and a varied background.
Game strategy
- Do not try to discover the cards in a crisscross way, but turn them in sequence. Otherwise, you might waste some turns by discovering some cards several times.
- Stay calm! It is more difficult to remember things whilst being exited - as the experts say; oxygen stimulates, just take a deep breath and try to concentrate.
- Play slowly and do not try to keep up to the speed of your opponents. This will give you time to remember the cards you have seen before. Mainly children often play this game much too fast.
- Pay attention when it is the turn of an opponent. Often one is only fully in the matter when it is ones turn.
- Never turn two new and unknown cards. In such case, only pure coincidence would lead to a pair.
- Better: Turn only one new and unknown card in the hope to see a card, which double you have already discovered before.
