HOW TO ORDER


1) Prepare your File

Save your file, format can be anything from JPEG, TIF, PSD, etc. Some recommendations if you have the software to do it:
- Use AdobeRGB 1998 colorspace if possible.
- Adjust your file to at least 240ppi.
- If you don't have the software to do all these changes it's fine, just go to the next step.
 

2) Decide in which Size, Type of Media and Finish you want your print

Choose a size for your print, in inches.
We have a lot of different media available. Check our product and services page for available Media and Finish (if applicable) and choose, then go to the next step.
 

3) Did you choose Canvas? then see this step, if not, jump to number 4

If you chose to have your image printed in Canvas, let us know if you want the print only, or if you want it framed and which thickness of frame: 0.75", 1.25" or 1.50".
Don't forget to choose a finish: Matte or Satin.

If we are going to frame your image, remember that the Canvas has to be wrapped around the frame and the image could be affected, choose one of the following options:

a)
We take the image and extend it around the borders.
Be aware that this way some front image is lost around.

b)
We take the image and leave it intact on front and
we print a colored border of your choice around.

 

4) Contact us to arrange File Delivery

Yeah, time to pay, but don't worry, there are several ways:
Paypal
 
We are still working to set up this option, will be ready soon. You will deposit with your preferred method to a Paypal account that we will provide, you never give us any info ther than your address. Very safe!
Cash
 
If you live in the Portland/Vancouver area we can meet, I deliver your print job and you pay me, that was easy!
Deposit or Transfer
 
Make a deposit or make a transfer to an account we will provide you and we will send the job once the payment is received.
