To get the best results with Banner Printing try always to design the banners or signs 1:1 meaning designing it in it´s original size you want, now you think how is that possible? Photoshop is limited to certain sizes and illustrator as well, that is why you should use CorelDraw this great graphic design program has no limited art board in addition to Photoshop or illustrator you can design your banners at 3 foot x 8 foot or much bigger.
Edit your taken photos in Photoshop as usual and import them in your new design in CorelDraw place your texts and other images designed by CorelDraw or illustrator, the great thing of these images is that they are vector based so you won’t loose quality with them in addition to photo’s that are pixel based.

A little something about vector based and pixel based.
Vector based images are usually created with illustrator or CorelDraw and you can enlarge them as big as you want them to be with no loss of quality.
Pixel based images are created with digital cameras & scanners and edited in Photoshop.
Many people make the mistake to use web images for banner designs its a mistake because you just cannot not use or create an image that is no bigger than 100 pixels x 200 pixels on a banner from 3 foot x 8 foot it just looks like a smudge you will get terrible issues when printing. Your images need to be at least 200dpi or bigger preferably from a digital camera or high resolution scans.
When you are done with your design 1:1 the best way to save them is in .jpg or .tiff I prefer .jpg it is more compressed so smaller file formats for sending over the web, and when sending to your banner printing service company they receive the file in it´s original format the way you designed it so you never loose image quality and have a perfect printing experience.
