ppi = pixels per inch
Typical Resolution. Actual pixel dimensions vary from camera to camera.
You can go as big as you like, but the resolution (amount of information) will determine how far back from the print you need to view it for it to look as you expect.
It is a difficult question to answer as the subject of the image can also affect how large you can print it before it starts to deteriorate in quality.
For prints around A2 (16�x24�) or smaller, anything between 150 and 300dpi is best. The higher the better.
For larger prints, 150dpi is recommended, but 72-80 dpi is usually more than adequate for large backgrounds.
Cropping of images
Cropping will often improve the subject matter,
keep in mind this will reduce pixels in photo thus reducing Ideal print size
