Composition Guidelines for the perfect picture
Red Triangles or Red Areas outside the image
Red Triangles are formed when you rotate an image, they indicate
areas outside of the area of the print. You can get rid of them by
zooming in. However, zooming in effectively lowers the resolution of
your image, so if the resolution of the image you uploaded is small to
begin with you may find out that you can't zoom in enough to get rid of
the red areas. Likewise if you zoom out too far, you will get a red
border around the image. This indicates that you've zoomed out too far
and there isn't enough of the image to cover the product.
What are the shaded area and blue lines for?
With certain
products, such as Canvases and Acrylic prints, there are areas which
are either wrapped around the side of the frame (Canvas) or cropped off
(Acrylic), these areas are shaded so you can visualise what will
actually appear on the finished product. Neither the shading or blue
lines will be printed out, they are simply for guidance when you setup
the image.
It says I can't zoom in beyond a certain point, why is this?
When you zoom into an image you effectively reduce the resolution
of the image as only a reduced portion of the image gets printed onto
the finished product. All of our products have minimum resolutions we
will accept for a given print area. If the website detects that by
zooming in you would go under these limits, it will prevent you from
zooming in any further.
Do you offer any finishing touch services to the images?
We pride ourselves on the quality of our products, both in the
makeup of the product and the quality of the printout. For more
information on how proud we are of this please have a read of our
Quality page. During the quality process we inspect every image we
print. Sometimes we will make slight adjustments to the colours or
brightness of an image to ensure this quality is maintained. Equally,
if an image is not up to our quality checks, we will contact you. If
you would like any minor adjustments please make sure you mention them
in the comments box during checkout, we will try our best to accodomate
any requests, although we can't promise it.
