Here's my Tidal Teal just chillin in the tub.
Does a Mahina and leggings count as a tail?
My first mermaid tail.
I have too many tails...

Ack, sorry for the disappearance there!
Yeah you can use a digital program for this, which is what I did for these two designs. You just gotta treat it differently, and not save as a .jpg file (you'll be stuck with horrific pixellations if saved as a .jpeg!). It can be a little tricky pulling the actual image from the pdf file, and then prepping it for proper use, but worth the greater flexibility in customization!

Hahaha, there’s no such thing as too many tails.

I didn't actually post my design. I just mentioned I was working on one. :U (Unless you were talking about my art that I have linked in my sig, in which case thanks!)
This depends entirely on the quality and psi you save it as. If you leave it at the standard 72psi that most internet image files are saved as, then yes, this will be a problem. Most prints in order to have decent quality need to be saved at the very least 150, but most professionals don't recommend going less than 200. Personally, when I plan on printing an image, save it at a resolution of 300psi. This lets the image preserve it's detail, even if you save it as a JPEG.
The reason I suggest saving a digital Finfun tail design as a JPEG is because it is specifically the file type Finfun asked for when uploading any design that isn't a photo.

My silicone tail. The tail was made by hand by me and has a finis foil monofin in the fluke. It is inspired by the colourings of an Australian herring. I have just finished repainting it and here is the result!

great looking!
not many tails with white as primary colour around.

Fair enough, I went with the .png route (brain skipped on the initial reply and put .png instead of .jpg - doh XP ) a long time ago at a defauly 300 psi for all my illustrations, and use it out of habit now.
Oddly I didn't see anything about the files needing to be JPEG, but they didn't say anything about it being PNG, so I guess if saved right, it could be either file then.
That's a very nice design!
I was able to test out my river dragon tail from purple mermaid studios at my birthday river trip earlier this month and got these lovely photos!

My first tail came today! I am taking it to my family reunion this weekend, where we have a pond that I can try it out in.
(I also have an aunt that can swim fantastically, who is going to be my spotter, and a lifejacket to start me out with since it will be my first time with a monofin.)
It's a Fin Fun Sunset Sky. It's even better than I could have hoped for.

This is beautiful!! How do I become a pod member? I didn’t see a tab or link for it after I clicked on it. Also, I just started a nonprofit for suicidal prevention in Youth and needing a tail (1st one) have a fin so experienced mermaid swimmer ..just no pretty costume yet . I’ve poured my own resources into getting it started so have asked the companies to donate one but noone has responded yet. If anyone knows of someone who makes them that isn’t a small mom and pop company that can afford to donate one it’s a tax write off and for a good cause. (Raising money for the endeavor as a mermaid)
