Print style & size

Many people ask about standard photo sizes

Todays array of digital devices having the ability to take photos is an amazing progression for personal photography. Most digital cameras use an aspect ratio of (4:3), whereas digital SLR photography generally uses an aspect ratio of (3:2). However, both size ranges are quite similar so photos produced from either standard cameras or digital SLR's can normally be cropped to fit either size range. If you wish to preserve your entire image, simply select the one that matches your photo most closely. We offer A0, A1, A2, A3, A4 posters, A1, A2, A3, A4 framing and finally canvas photo prints in all sizes. We offer prints that precisely match the sizes of your digital or DSLR camera, mobiles, iPad, tablet or any of todays myriad devices that capture pictures of amazing memories.

Standard A sizes suit most photos

The majority of photos from cameras or phones can easily fit into A sizes, Classic Sizes (3:2), or Standard Sizes (4:3). Feel free to upload your file in its original format. Simple select the size range you would prefer and then use our cropping tool to fit the desired size. If for any reason we feel that the resolution of your photo is not sufficient for the size ordered, we will contact you via email. We try to ensure that your poster will reproduce your original photography as closely as possible. It is not necessary to understand the complexities of aspect ratio when getting a photo printed. Standard digital cameras and digital SLR cameras normally produce slightly different sizes, as do many different devices with the ability to take pictures. Our range of large photo prints suit prints for both digital, DSLR and many other varying images.

Panoramas come in a wide range of sizes

Cameras and software today allow you to create beautiful, artistic panoramas. We are happy to print these into posters if possible, whatever the size!

Pictures taken by modern devices are normally high quality

There is no simple answer as to whether your photo will have sufficient resolution & quality to enlarge to your preferred size. This is not determined simply by pixels per inch (The number of megapixels in your photo). It is also affected by the quality of the camera and lens. Today’s modern enlarging software allows many images to be enlarged that previously could not. For this reason, the website does not reject photos when uploaded.

If possible, please upload your original photo file

We check each photo personally and contact you via email if we feel that the quality of your photo is not high enough for the size ordered. However, please always upload the largest photo file possible in order to achieve the best result. Additionally, it is normally best to upload the original file from your camera or phone. Facebook & other social media images do not enlarge well as they are normally reduced in size to conserve space on their servers.

What! A geometry lesson?

Simply put, aspect ratio is the relationship between the height of your photo to the width of your photo (Width : Height). This becomes particularly relevant with panoramic images.  2:1 aspect ratio means that the width (length) of your photo is two times the height. 3:1 aspect ratio means that the width (length) of your photo is three times the height. 4.5:1 means that the width (length) of your photo is four and a half times the height. And so on …

Let the upload preview be your guide …

If your photo does not fit the size range selected, simply select a different aspect ratio until you are happy with the result.

If you are still unsure about which size to choose …
