Life size photo of a person

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PHOTO

Full body image (from head to toe of shoe)
Let the person appear standing, face-on, and be as close as possible so that all their physical details can be clearly seen.
That the person has their arms close to the body (for example like those in our photos). This model CANNOT be performed if you have one or both arms open, extended upwards or with your hands on your waist.
TECHNICAL RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE PHOTO

1.We recommend that the photos have a minimum quality or resolution of 2 Mb or Megabits (if it has more, the better). You can check this if you open the photo on a computer, right click and look at the properties

2. If it has fewer Megabits or Mb or they are in Kb or Kilobytes it will look bad, blurry. And, before we start making the figure, we already know that it is not going to look good and that you are not going to like it when you receive it. Then you will tell us “It looks blurry”, “I expected something else”, “It didn't turn out as I imagined”, “The photo looks bad”, “It's not what I expected”, “It has bad resolution”… and all because The photo does not have the necessary quality. We have already informed you of what is going to happen, but you are free to listen to us or not.

3. We want you to know that we are not responsible for the quality of your photo. If it is not of good quality, it is beyond repair. Not even a professional photographer could improve it. If you send us a specific photo, that is the one we will use, since we understand that you have chosen it with the necessary quality, because you really like it or because you know how it will look.

4. The photos that have been shared with you on WhatsApp are useless, because they remain blurry. And the app automatically reduces the quality a lot and it will be blurry.

5. The best photos are those taken by a professional photographer. But if it is not possible, one that you have made with your camera or with a good mobile phone will also look great and the closer the better. Send us the one with the highest quality or largest size.

6. It is also possible to use a photo that you have on paper.
You just have to scan it. You must follow these steps:

-When you scan, you will find a “Custom” option or something similar. It is the option to choose the pixels or dpi.
-Write at least 1200 (if you have more, the better. For example, 1500 or 2000)
-As for the size, you can leave it with 1.5 Mb or 2Mb.
-And that would be it. Now hit the scan button and send us the photo

The figure is ready to ship within 7-10 business days (Monday to Friday, excluding weekends and holidays).

WORK PROCESS

Once you make your purchase, we begin to prepare your order the day after placing the order, as long as it is between Monday and Thursday. If you order on a Friday, weekend or holiday, we will start preparing it the next business day.

SHIPMENT

When the figure is created and ready, we prepare the shipment. We will notify you by email when it is in the hands of the courier service.

SHIPPING RESPONSIBILITY

When your order leaves our facilities and we leave it in the hands of the courier service, the responsibility for ensuring that you receive it within the time stipulated for your destination and in perfect condition lies with the Parcel Company. Because from that moment on they are the ones who look after your order. In the same way that if they go to the address you have given us and no one answers, they will call you and you will be the one who must be responsible for making a new delivery with the delivery person.

You can let us know if any problem of this type occurs and we will help you in everything we can to solve it as soon as possible, but you must understand that we send shipments to an external company that is not part of Invitaciones de Papel. For this reason we cannot control or set the pace of work that we would like.

Once your order is designed, printed and packaged, we prepare shipping. You will receive an email notifying you that your package has been delivered to the courier company. Shipping time starts from that email.

How do I know if the photo I have will look good?

Well, we can do a test before you place the order. Send us that photo and we will review it before you place your order. Our e-mail is contacto@invitacionesdepapel.com

Are photos taken with a mobile phone useful?

It all depends on the quality of the photo and whether it is close or far away. The best thing is that you send us the photo to contacto@invitacionesdepapel.com and we will take a look at it before you place the order.

How far in advance do I have to order the figure?

At least 15 or 20 days before you need it. It is the minimum time we need to prepare it and send it to you without stress.

What material is the figure made of?

The figures are made of 1.2 cm thick cardboard. Therefore they are hard, rigid. They are not going to bend in half. Withstands a party without problems.

If I need it for this week or next week and pay for express shipping, can you do it?

No, we're sorry. Between manufacturing and shipping, we need at least 10 business days (Monday to Friday, weekdays and holidays do not count). And that's how long it will take to send it, because we can't do it any faster.

If you need it sooner, you can order it but always knowing that if it does not arrive when you need it, it is your responsibility. Because, with less than 10 days, we cannot ensure that you can receive it on time and therefore we cannot assume any type of responsibility or claim on your part.

In any case, if you want to consult us, write us an e-mail to contacto@invitacionesdepapel.com or a WhatsApp from here so we can assess how we can help you.

I have downloaded a photo from the Internet, can I make the figure with that image? Will it be good?

By proxy, you can your order. Nothing stops you. Although we want to warn you that the photos on the internet have a fairly low quality and when you enlarge them to a natural size they look blurry and the figures come out like this, blurred or pixelated. Without seeing the photo we already know that it is not going to look good, but the decision is yours.

Does a photo that has been shared with me on WhatsApp work?

The same thing happens with the photos on the internet. WhatsApp lowers the quality of the photos a lot so that the app does not crash. So when they are blown up to actual size, they look blurry.

And a screenshot?

It doesn't work either. What's more, in that case we don't even try. We would refund your money, because we already know that it is not going to be good.

Do you send figures outside of Spain?

Cardboard figures cannot be sent outside of Spain, since it is a very large package and we cannot guarantee that it will arrive perfectly.

If you still want to ask us a question, write us an email to contacto@invitacionesdepapel.com or WhatsApp so we can assess how we can help you.
