To make sure your custom cut-out turns out amazing, we need a high-quality image to work with. Below you'll find everything you need to know before uploading your artwork or photo.

What Makes a Good Image?

Your image should be in focus, well-lit, and over 1MB in file size.

Avoid screenshots or images downloaded from social media - these are usually low resolution and won’t print well.

TIP: Open your image on a computer, zoom in until the face fills the screen. Is it still sharp and crisp? If yes, it's good to go!

Recommended Specs:

Minimum resolution: 1500px tall

File size: At least 1MB

Background: Plain or uncluttered preferred

Image type: Full body (head-to-toe) works best for life-size cut-outs

Should I Crop My Image?

If there are other people in frame, then yes - this way it's clear who you want the cut-out to be of. Also, lighter backgrounds work best.

Don’t worry, if we think there is a problem with your image, we’ll be in touch before progressing your order.

 

What’s the Maximum Height?

Our life-size cut-outs go up to:

6 feet (183cm) tall

We scale your cut-out based on the person in the photo - or to a standard height if it's not full-body.

What Kind of Cut-Outs Can I Request?

Bride or groom for hen/stag parties

Missing guests for weddings or celebrations

Pet standees 

Any fun, appropriate photo of a real person you have permission to use

Can I Upload a Celebrity Image?
