you'll want 300 dpi if you really want it to print with absolutely no issues.
That would mean pics need to be 2400 x 3000 pixels at least. I believe that's about 6MP's

Thanks for posting the pixel dimensions - yes, 150 dpi is minimum, higher res is always better, but they still have to get through the email systems, so 10MB is probably tops. Most likely editing would just be cropping, but it helps to have more to work with.

a 6MP jpg image will be much less than 10MB. My 6MP RAW files are only around 5MB. A JPG picture of the same dimensions is only about 2-3MB

Don't use any of these pictures..., cut of the profits OMG!
You have to be careful if you are going to make any money on the cals, Honda will shut you down. This happened to the Mustang crew last year. Remember that Honda owns the rights to make money off the likeness of their cars, we do not have those rights even though we bought the cars. The car companies normally do not piss a moan if the cals are sold for cost, not for profit.

My 2 cents would be to sell them for what it cost to have them printed.

I found a dpi inches to pixel converter online...the minimum pixel dimensions for 8x10 photo @ 150dpi is 1200 x 1500.

You might want to add that to the OP for reference. Thanks for the reply
You can have a 72 dpi or a 600 dpi image that is 1200x1500, can't really go by that. Like Saki mentioned earlier its about the resolution.

Remember, photos need to be emailed to be submitted - just posting them here is not the same.
