Since you can not change categories on an approved card you'd need to ask us to do so. You can do that on this thread for "misplaced cards":

Hi Mindy
I have often thought about making photo cards, but then I think of the size of photo people might submit and it puts me off. Are customers asked to submit large size files?... a lot of non-designer people might not realise the image size makes a difference, and if they just send in a regular size photo it might not look too good when placed on a card, especailly if it has to be increased in size to fit the card- as we know larger size is better for quality in printing!
Thanks
Karen
