YOUR PHOTO
 |
|
We are photo driven. Photos can
be old or new original photos, slides or digital files.
We can scan original paper photos (large or small) rendering
an excellent digital file to work from. Digital camera
photos are simple to work with easy to download
from your camera and easy to upload to our Website
and its no surprise the standard shape of a digital
camera photo is the same shape as the print areas on
our core frame products - but we can make any shape
photo fit. Naturally we are very careful with your original
photos if that's your format and they are always returned.

ARTWORKING YOUR IMAGE
This is the first area where we have to skillfully prepare
the photo for best results before it gets printed. Once
you have sent your image, our first consideration is the look
and feel - Is it going to make a great item? If not we relay
news that the choice of photo may be bettered and request
a new selection to aim for a better looking finished product.
Even if the look and feel of the photo is good, how is the
quality? This is more to do with the condition, or file resolution
but more on that later. We make a careful assessment as to
whether the photo will print successfully to provide stunning
results. And if we feel we need a better quality scan or better
resolution image we call to discuss and obtain a new version.
Then, if the quality, look and feel are terrific does the
image need any retouching?
Retouching is often considered to be a specialist area, and
we provide as part of the service a significant retouching
service free of charge that helps to improve the image
to achieve great results. This includes red eye reduction,
date stamp removal, dust and scratch reduction, and blemish
removal.
PRINTING YOUR IMAGE
Another key aspect is the print from your artworked photo.
Again it is very easy to take for granted. But here, we are
printing onto fabric using dye sublimation- and not any old fabric - a specialist
textile that has to hold the print and colour for years and
fit in with the fashionable quality and design. We
select the material that is the best for printing on and that
holds all the key qualities for perfect durable print. We
use a technique that impregnates the ink deep in to the fabric
with terrific durability and reproduction quality. Won't go
shiny, scratch off, crack or fade.
PRODUCTION
Once the star of the show (your photo) has been prepared and
successfully printed, we stretch by hand onto industry grade
stretcher bars in our workshop. Again this is skilled area
and only experienced production guys work on your stretch
canvas. Quality control occurs as a last and final stage to
make sure we have achieved your desired result.
DISPATCH
Once complete, we arrange carriage either by Royal Mail Special
Delivery or Signed for Services, or if large then with City
Link for next working day delivery. And remember you can have
as many stretch canvasses for the one time delivery charge
of £3.95 inc Vat.
