How is the clarity on larger prints?
How is the clarity on larger prints?
Rest assured that all available print options have been checked to make sure there is sufficient printing resolution. Should an image be inappropriate for larger format prints, these are listed as unavailable on our website. For your reference, landscape orientation options (if available) will always be printed with higher quality as the photo is printed using its maximum available resolution.
It is also important to note that viewing is affected by distance, and each print size has a minimum and maximum range that is best respected to optimise viewing quality. We suggest a viewing distance of at least 1 metres for a large-size framed print as one typically looks at an artwork hung on the wall.
Will my print look like it does on your website?

The final printed image will look almost identical to what you see online. Images shown on our website are from the same image file library we use to print your orders. However, it is important to note that the colour profile used for screens is different than the colour profile that is used for printing.
Scanners, digital cameras and computer monitors use red, green and blue (RGB) light to display colour. Commercial printing presses print with cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK) ink, called process printing, instead of RGB light, and therefore produce a different range of colours.
The difference between RGB and CMYK can be summarised in the points below:
RGB
- Red, Green and Blue
- Used for screens
- Uses pixels of varying amounts of RGB light to create colours
- The higher the levels of RGB the brighter the colour
- As RGB colours are created with light colours can be brighter than CYMK
CMYK
- Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black
- Used for print
- Uses halftones or dots and colours become darker the more CMYK used
- CMYK images get their brightness from the paper stock they are printed on

How do you package the products?
We take great care and pride in packing our frames to ensure they arrive safely, and well presented. Our heavy-duty boxes are made with premium 8mm thick twin wall corrugate and are especially designed to withstand rigorous handling during shipping. All frames are bubble wrapped and come with cardboard guards for added protection.
Unframed prints are carefully rolled up into our protective sleeves to protect printed surface from rubbing and scuffing during shipping. Depending on the print size, we use four different sizes of tubes. The tubes we use are a premium 3mm thickness to minimise chances of crushing.
When will my order arrive?
When will my order arrive?
Depending on your location, your order will arrive within 2-8 business days from the dispatch date under the current circumstances. This advice excludes remote and regional destinations such as WA (Australia), NT (Australia) and some international deliveries which will naturally require more shipping time than the other states and capital cities.
The above times are provided as a guide only and are subject to variable scenarios and unforeseen circumstances. Please allow additional delivery times during peak periods.
What if I am not home when my order arrives?
What if I am not home when my order arrives?
If you are not home at the time of delivery, our delivery personnel will leave the parcel on your premises if it is safe to do so. Often this will be near the front door and outside of the weather. Otherwise, our driver will leave a card with instructions for you to pick up the parcel from your local post office.
What if my order arrives damaged?
What if my order arrives damaged?
Under Australian consumer law, we will replace any products that arrive damaged, faulty, or different to described on this website. When shipping large, fragile items, there is always a risk of damage during transit. Thankfully, this is a rare occurrence for us due to considerable protective packaging.
If items arrive damaged, you must contact us immediately via email within 24 hours of receiving the product and provide photos of the damage along with the original packaging. Please do not discard the packaging until sufficient evidence is provided to us.

Please ask any q's before purchase if you are unsure, we are more than happy to assist you.
You can choose a refund or exchange if an item has a major problem. This is when the item:
