Try to avoid photos which are blurry and photos with the subjects oriented near the top or sides of the picture. The subjects of the photos should be centered as much as possible. Avoid photos where the subjects' heads have been "cut off" or parts of their bodies are off-camera.
2. Arrange and Count Your Photos: If you have print photos, slides and/or negatives and wish (sticky) notes on the back of each photo. Please do not write on your photos with pen or ink, and please do not place your Post-It notes on the front of the photos.
