For an 8x10, you're going to want to look for pictures that are at least 1200 x 1600. Of course, use your better judgement. If it's a crappy looking 1200x1600 on your screen, it's going to look crappy printed out as well.

You can filter out low res photos easily in Google's search. Just click on "Search tools" then size -> Larger than 2mp (1600x1200)

This. Unless you get a vector image, you're going to lose a good bit of quality. So it's best to start your search with as big image size as possible.
