size of your image.

Can I improve the quality of
the image when I edit it? |

No, the image on your ICICI Bank MyCard will be the same quality as your original image. If your original is blurred or grainy, it will appear the same way on your ICICI Bank MyCard. For best results, choose a clear, sharply-focused image to start with. |

Will my original
image change after I have edited it on the Card Designing
