The higher the definition, the easiest to work with but we can work with most graphics.

Think in Black and white! Eventually, all graphics will be converted to black and white (no Gray) so avoid blurry images or images with a lot of shading or poor contrasting colors / features.

Lasers do not engrave in color even though we can shade metals to silvers, gold and even black depending on the metal, again, think Black and White!

Be realistic, a wedding portrait engraved on an area the size of a stamp will not render well.
Rule of thumb is, find that graphic on google, shrink it down on your screen to the size it will be, if it is hard to recognize there, it will be hard to recognize on the finished product.
