Edge treatment of metal prints

1. There is a certain amount of bleeding when we make images, so it is recommended that if you have important images or text, please place them in the middle of the image to avoid affecting the integrity of the work
2. The corners and edges of each completed metal print are rounded, which not only looks beautiful and stylish, but also has more safety considerations to avoid accidents due to sharp metal corners when you touch or replace the work

The quality of metal impressions

Old photos and negatives are used to reproduce metal prints. Due to the limited preservation of the original documents, the effect of scanned data will be compromised. At the same time, the details of analog data are different from those of current digital data. Thank you for your understanding.

The advantages of reproducing old photos and negatives with metal impressions are as follows:

• If you purchase "Download high-resolution image files", you can take this opportunity to digitize your precious images
• The bright and three-dimensional printing effect of metal printing will give your old photos a new look
• The metal photo interior display with a new look will not fade for 50 years, so you don't have to worry about the deterioration of the photos
