FAQ

Photos
What is the maximum size of a photo? Plus

If you want to upload a photo to our product designer, the image file must not be larger than 50 MB.

What format should my data be in? Plus

We may process data on our website in the formats JPG (.jpg or .jpeg) and TIFF (.tif or .tiff). Most digital cameras use the JPG format.

How can I change the existing format? Plus

If you want to change the existing size of a photo, you can do this with almost any graphics program. Programs such as Adope-Photoshop, Corel Paint, Paintshop Pro or Irfan View offer this function and are easy to use. Most digital cameras that save photos in RAW format have an additional program to convert these photos into a JPD file.

What resolution should my photo have? Plus

The resolution of your photo is largely responsible for the size and quality of the image. This table shows you how to get the best result.

What color space should my photo be taken in? Plus

For best results, it is best to save your data in the RGB or sRGB color space. Data uploaded in other color spaces will be automatically converted to RGB, which may result in minor color deviations. Claims and complaints resulting from these color deviations are excluded.

How do I know if my photo can be used for the desired format? Plus

Upload your photo to our product designer and select the desired size. The quality of your photo for the selected size will then be displayed below the image preview. If it shows "poor" or "very poor", you should choose a smaller size or select an image with a higher resolution.

How do I change the landscape or portrait format of my photo? Plus

Simply upload your image and click “Horizontal” or “Vertical” in the product designer.

Can I also order normal photo prints? Plus

No, unfortunately we no longer offer this.

Why do I see a light border on my photos? Plus

The border indicates which part of your motif is omitted in the print. In the case of a print on canvas, this is the cutout that can be seen on the sides of the stretcher frame
If you print on a sheet material (e.g. aluminum dibond), the edge shows where the image will be cut. Always make sure your image is a bit larger, so there are no white edges left in the preview.

How can I enlarge my images? Plus

Click on the "+" in the image. You can then also select the desired section by holding down the left mouse button and moving the photo a little. Click on the "-" to reduce the photo again.

Products
How big is the image area on a canvas? Plus

For a 2 cm thick frame the bleed is 5 cm, for a 4 cm thick frame it is 10 cm. The bleed is the part of the image that is stretched around the frame and is not visible from the front.

What warranty do I get on my products? Plus

We give a 5-year guarantee on colour fastness and durability of the product when used correctly indoors. For "Fine Art" versions we give a 7-year guarantee.

What is the best way to clean my wooden photo? Plus

Wood is a natural product, so there may be splinters in the material. Unfortunately, you cannot clean your painting - not even dry it. If you try to clean it anyway, you run the risk of splinters coming loose and the print flaking off.

What should I do if my product has a color deviation? Plus

If the product shows color deviations, this is usually due to the settings of your monitor. Our printers are checked regularly and print your image according to the supplied data.
If your product shows extreme color deviations, please inform our customer service and send us a photo of your product. For the photo, place a white sheet of paper next to the product so that the color deviations are visible to us.

If your photo is blurry or out of focus, this is usually because the image resolution of your photo is not suitable for the selected format or because the original photo was taken out of focus.
