How
do I get my picture to you?
After
you send us your order through our ordering
page we will contact you within 1 business day. You will be sent
an order form and be told where to email your original unedited
image.
What
format should my photographs be in?
We prefer digital images, but will also scan images for you if
necessary (.50 per image). Your digital image should come straight
from your camera or scanner, we prefer to do our own editing.
Ideally, we need a 1200x1800 pixel image to get the best quality
for your 4 x 6 print (at 300dpi). A higher resolution is even
better! When using a digital camera, set your camera to the highest
resolution possible (Please refer to your owner's manual for more
information about setting the resolution on your camera). Please
save your files to either JPG, TIFF or PSD format before sending
them to us. Also, please make sure your e-mail program does not
try to automatically resize your photos. Following these resolution
and file format guidelines will ensure the highest quality card.
Can
I use a professional photograph?
Yes, as long as you send us a copyright release form.
Can
you edit my photographs?
Yes! We can edit your image to be Black & White or
Sepia. We can also correct minor imperfections (red eye etc).
What
kind of paper do you use?
All of our photo cards are professionally printed on Fujicolor
Crystal Archive paper with a lustre surface.
Will
I receive a proof before my order is processed?
Yes! We will send you a link that will allow you to view your
proof. You must approve it before we print it. You can make changes
to your proof, we won't print until you are completely satisfied.
How
long will my order take?

within 2 business days. Once your proof is approved it will be
printed and shipped within 2 business days. All orders are shipped
