Make your own K-State photo the starting point

Choose a landscape image with a clear subject and an uncluttered area behind the check’s printed information. A campus photo you took can be more personal than a crowded collage. Keep important faces or buildings away from crop edges, and check the retailer’s proof before deciding that the composition works.

Purple accents can carry the theme without filling the writing area with dark color. Start with your highest-quality original rather than enlarging a small web image. A file that meets the minimum dimensions can still look soft when printed.

Ready-made college designs are a separate choice

The Checks Unlimited collegiate catalog checked October 9 did not list a Kansas State design. Its Kansas Jayhawks product is for a different university. Review the retailer’s collegiate collection for its listed schools, or consider the generic Sports Fanatic design if you want sports artwork rather than a K-State-specific design.

Choose the format and review paid extras

Single Photo, product code 656, offers singles or carbonless duplicates. The October 9 product and FAQ evidence lists 80 checks per box for either format, with one-, two- and four-box choices. A duplicate provides a record of each check you write; it does not double the number of payments.

Labels, a cover and a register are separate paid options. SentryShield protection adds a charge by default and can be removed in the cart. Review those selections, delivery and any optional rush charge before comparing the final total. Do not assume a register or fixed number of deposit slips is included.

Prepare, upload and proof

  1. Prepare a suitable landscape JPG/JPEG or BMP, under 4 MB and at least 432 × 198 pixels. Those are the retailer’s minimum file requirements, not a print-quality guarantee.
  2. Choose Single Photo at Checks Unlimited, select your format and quantity, and upload the image yourself. The page does not transfer any artwork automatically.
  3. Review the image crop and every personalized field. Compare routing and account details with your bank’s records, check your starting number, and review the final cart before ordering.

Questions before ordering

Can I order the illustrated design exactly as shown?

The saved illustrations are inspiration, not confirmation of a current ready-made product or an approved upload. Review the actual retailer’s product preview and use a suitable image you can supply for your own photo order.

Can I upload any K-State image I find online?

The retailer restricts copyrighted images and can reject unsuitable content. Review its photo-content rules before uploading. A picture appearing on this guide does not establish permission to print it or guarantee acceptance.

What size file should I prepare?

The verified minimum is 432 × 198 pixels, with JPG/JPEG or BMP format and a file smaller than 4 MB. A sharper original gives you more room to crop. Inspect the proof for text readability and image quality.

Should I choose singles or duplicates?

Choose singles if you only need the checks. Choose duplicates if a carbonless copy helps you keep payment records. Confirm the selected quantity and whether you want a separate register or other accessories.
