how do I place my order?

we have worked very hard to make the ordering process on-line very simple and straight forward. pick a frame -> upload your image -> select your size and special effects -> checkout. however, we do appreciate that this is a custom process and you may prefer to speak to our helpful staff. in that case we will gladly help you order over the phone. please call us at 800.277.1584 9am-6pm Eastern Time

what do you mean by image quality

The quality of your finished framed image depends on the size of the file and the size of the frame size you select. Once you hit the upload button on our site, the system will read the size of your image and give you various details during the upload. Once your upload is complete, the system will provide you with your image size. With this information, you can then select the frame size.

what special effects can I get?

we have a great selection of special effects that you can request to make your image perfect. some of the simple requests are free, but the more complex requests have a small upcharge. our standard special effects are:

  • red eye removal
  • date stamp removal
  • background removal
  • color boost
  • color to black & white
  • sepia
  • blemish, mole, scar removal
  • posterize
  • wrinkle removal

if you do not see the option you’re looking for or would like to make further adjustments, simply tell us what you would like in the notes section. once we review your request, we will give you a price quote before any work is done on your image

do you crop images?

we try not to crop your images. however, if you order a frame size that has a different shape that your original image, then cropping will be necessary to make it fit. we will send you a proof before we go to into production.

do you send digital proofs?

if you have requested special effects or we have to crop your image to fit a particular frame size, we will send you a digital proof free of charge to ensure that you will be satisfied with our work. once you approve the proof, production will begin

how do I pay?

we accept all major credit and debit cards (visa, mastercard, american express, and discover). we accept paypal as well

what if I don’t like it?

we have a 100% money back guarantee if you are not completely satisfied with your finished product. our goal is to exceed your expectations in every possible way. however, if quasimodo uploaded his image and said “make me look like brad pitt” it’s not going to happen. very difficult for us to exceed customer expectations here. we can help with the hump though

all kidding aside, if we can fix your problem, we will. if you want to return your artwork, call us within 10 days and we will refund 100% of your money once we receive the product back from you

how do I send it back?

in order to return a product, you need to call us 800.277.1584 within 10 days of receiving it. we are going to ask why you want to return the product. this isn’t to make life difficult for you, we want to know your reason so we can learn and improve. we will give you a return authorization number and then email you a prepaid return label

how long does it take to make?

production time varies by product and the details can be found in each product. we consider product to start once you approve your proof for printing. if you have not requested any special effects, then the production process starts at the time of your order. generally speaking, production is two weeks or less. Holidays and our seasonal peak times of the year may slightly effect normal production time.

what are archival materials

archival is a fancy insider term that simply means long lasting. we do everything in our power to give you the highest quality finished artwork for your home. here’s how:

  • our epson paper is a heavy weight high grade product
  • we use ultrachrome pigmented inks
  • all images are coated with a UV protective layer. this layer protects your image from the harmful UV rays, moisture and finger prints. if necessary, you can clean the surface with a damp towel

what are multiple frames?

this is where you can get very creative with your image. rather than just one frame for your image, you can spread your image over multiple frames. create a dramatic impact wall art scene for any room in your home. the industry terms for this technique is called diptych (2 frames), triptych (3 frames), quadtych (4 frames).

what do you guys think about privacy?

personal information – we are huge believers in your personal privacy. your images and personal information will never be shared with any outside parties – ever! we believe spammers should be dressed in a bunny suit and left on elmer fudd’s front porch. he likes to hunt “wabbits”

your images – your image is your image. the copyright is always yours. that doesn’t change once you upload to us for framing. the only people that will see your image are people who work on it at snapartwork.com. we do see some amazing work, so we may ask for your permission to post your image on our blog

is your site secure?

all transactions on our site are encrypted. encryption is a fancy word for scrambling the data so know one can read it during transmission. we have a special encryption key on our system and the credit card processing company has the decryption key on their end so they can read and process your order. we don’t store or see your credit card information on our system at any time. we use geotrust, an industry leader, to provide us with our unique 128 bit encryption key
