I'm clueless regarding image size (pixel), dpi and file size. If I have an image I want to include and it is as small as, for instance, 96 dpi, 640 x 480, 39 KB will it come out blurry? Another one is 200 dpi, 480 x 319, 28 KB. I would not want a full image size on the ~8 x 11 size book. It could be a part of a 9 image page. Some of these images came from off the web that were posted. I would like to include them since I didn't take any photos of the particular place on my trip. Thanks.

Hello - generally images taken off the web are not a good idea. Those are low resolution, meant only to be viewed on the screen. That being said, if you are not fussy and just want the image on there for the "idea" and are using a 9 photo template, it may be passable. Those are all tiny images however. Not really print quality.
