Hello all,
I wanted to know the best way to approach taking a photo for a business card that is 2.319 inches by 3.458 inches.

I had my friend take a photo with his d70 camera (I am not a camera person so I am not sure specifically which model) and the image came out to be 48 inches by 72 inches.

I believe the resolution is 72 pixels/inch, I am working with a JPEG that is 6.51 MB.

When I try to downsize it via Image> Image Size, specify the dimensions, enable bicubric smoothing, the printed look blurry.

Is there program/process for downsizing that much and preserving quality?

Alternatively, is there a program that formats pictures for business cards? I am wondering how some business cards have photos with such crisp resolution.

Thank you very much in advance!

Here is the image I am working with

Turn off Resampling.............and try again

OK, I see the download tab, let me play with a full version for a minute

Yup, if you turn off Resample - change to the new size and then it'll be at 1700+ pixels - so change that to 300 and you're done.
Nice clean and small.
