No, unfortunately it is not possible to send your items more quickly.
In case your order, as an exception, has not arrived on time, you can check the status of your shipment using your parcel number (which is sent to you automatically by e-mail shortly before shipping) at www.ups.eu Alternatively, your picanova.co.uk customer service team will also be glad to help. The best way to contact us is via the contact form, e-mail or on our support hotline.
We can process jpg, jpeg, png, gif formats. Max. process 60 MB data size.
Unfortunately your address cannot be changed later due to the automated processing of orders.
Unfortunately, subsequent amendments to individual image data, sizes etc. is not possible. Due to the automated handling processes, cancellation of the order is unfortunately not possible after receipt of payment and the corresponding order transmission.
Please note that your image data cannot be edited or trimmed before printing. The printing data is automatically generated by the system for the format selected in each case after submission of your order, and transferred to the production server. The respective preview that you were shown during the format selection stage is always decisive for the printing result, in particular also regarding possible image content loss due to varying aspect ratios between the preview and the printing format. In this, the system automatically carries out a bleed of the image data, and this is done symmetrically on the necessary pages. The system, after you have uploaded the file, automatically suggests all suitable canvas formats independent of the resolution and the aspect ratio. Please note that fuzzy image data and graininess due to artificially created resolution are not recognised by the system and can lead to a poor quality printing outcome (in these cases there are no grounds for complaint).
You can order your canvas in two different designs. You have the choice between a circa 2 cm wide stretcher frame or a very representative circa 4 cm wide gallery stretcher frame. You can also choose from four different types of border.

After you have loaded your photo onto our server, our system checks which formats this photograph is suited to. The resolution and the aspect ratio of your photo are decisive here in order to be able to guarantee results that are qualitatively as high-quality as possible. In order to be able to select larger formats, you need to upload a photograph with a higher resolution and/or another aspect ratio.
The deciding factor is the photo file's aspect ratio. There are different aspect ratios such as 4:3, 3:2, 2:1 or 1:1. These can be changed manually, for example, in the settings on your digital camera or later manually through editing in an image editing programme such as Adobe Photoshop. A print can only be carried out in the format in which the photo file is available. Otherwise, the image content will be distorted when printed. In order to avoid this, our system only offers you the printing formats that are possible.
An invalid file format error message can arise for two reasons:
The file you uploaded is not a "JPG". Please check your photo's file type and, as necessary, convert it to the correct file format with an image editing programme.
The file name of your photo file contains special characters such as full stops, commas, spaces etc. Please redefine your file name before uploading so that the file name does not contain any of these characters.
You can order an unlimited number of your photos with us, and of course also in different formats. In order to be able to select a different format for the same image file, you need to select the "Upload another image" option from the shopping basket.
When you have completed the design of your product and have placed this in the shopping basket, you can return to the order process by clicking the "Upload another image" link. In this way, you can gradually and comfortably order several individual products at once. The format 8" x 8" is a special offer for our non-commercial customers and a max. amount of 20 pcs. per cart can be ordered.
As soon as the order and payment have been completed, amendments to the order are unfortunately not possible for administrative reasons.
Unfortunately, due to our automated production and shipping processes, we cannot make amendments to your order after the order has been placed.
Acrylic glass printing: the photo is mirror-printed on acrylic glass
Your photo will be located directly on polished acrylic glass using UV direct printing and curing technology. With this 6 colour printing technology, even subtleties will be clearly presented, and even large colour areas will recognise deep rich colours. The rear side of the high-quality 3 mm thick acrylic glass plate is provided with a special vinyl. This creates the opaque and homogenous white background, which ensures faithful colour reproduction of your photo. High-quality material and modern technology prevent the colours from fading and make the acrylic glass print particularly resistant to light and water, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
Aluminium Dibond print: the photo is printed in photo quality on premium film
Your photo is printed on a high-quality, glossy vinyl with solvent-free HP latex inks, which enables your motif to be presented in maximum resolution. Then, using a special procedure, the film is applied evenly and precisely onto the 3 mm thick aluminium composite panel, whose centre consists of a hard, black plastic core, ensuring both stability and lightness. In addition, the print is finished with a transparent glass foil, which not only protects your image against radiation, but also ensures a brilliant appearance.
Acrylic glass print: UV direct printing and curing technology allows for a picture with maximum sharpness and the finest colour reproduction directly on polished acrylic glass. With this 6 colour printing technology, even finer details can be accurately represented, and even large colour areas will recognise deep, rich colours.
Aluminium Print: With state-of-the-art technology (6 colour printing procedure) a high-quality, glossy vinyl shall be printed using solvent-free HP latex inks, enabling your motif to be presented in maximum resolution.
The prints can be used outdoors. In outdoor environments, acrylic and alumimium prints are normally resistant to UV and water for up to 3 years. We also laminate our prints to make our products last for as long as seven years outdoors.
You can also order appropriate wall brackets for your pictures. We will deliver you a suspension set consisting of a self-adhesive suspension plate with an eye, and 2 self-adhesive rubber spacers. You can locate them at specific places on the rear side of your product. Our suspension is particularly suitable: it is invisible while giving a freely lavish character to the aluminium Dibond / acrylic glass print.
For a good result, the resolution of your digital camera should not be less than 4 megapixels. With resolutions of 2 megapixels, we can still present your picture in good quality in smaller formats.
On picanova.co.uk, one thing we don't do is offer you the chance to order a poor-quality aluminium Dibond or acrylic gas print. Your image will be verified during the upload process, and after this you will be shown only the formats that are eligible given the quality of your photo.
We can process jpg, jpeg, png, gif formats. Max. process 60 MB data size.
Under Section 2 of your order process ("Select Format") you will find a list containing the print formats that are possible with your motif. If your desired format should not be shown, then the reason is usually one of the 2 that follow. Either the resolution of your image file is not sufficient or the aspect ratio of your image file deviates too much from your desired format.
The aspect ratio describes the length-width ratio of an image. Generally, the usual ratios are the 3:2 format and the 4:3 format. On picanova.co.uk, these formats and many more e.g. panoramic formats, quadratic formats and DIN formats are offered. If the aspect ratio of your image deviates from that of your desired motif by too much, then your desired motif will indeed not be available; otherwise, it will be necessary to trim your image file to considerable extent in order for your desired format to be generated. You can obtain the desired format by changing the format of your motif prior to making your order.
As far as subsequent editing of your pictures is concerned, it is best to use current software e.g. Adobe Photoshop, Corel Paint, PaintShop Pro or IrfanView. However, during the order process and the configuration, picanova.co.uk also offers you the chance to subsequently convert your image black and white under the "Effects" option.
Yes, you can also upload images in black and white. And you can of course also subsequently convert a normal colour image e.g. into black and white (under the "Effects" option) during the order process.
Please bear in mind that your image files cannot be edited or cut in any way prior to printing. The print files will be generated by the system, in the selected format, immediately after your oder is placed and transmitted to the production server. The respective thumbnail, which you will receive during the format selection, is decisive in the print result; especially given that the motif may be lost as a result of deviating page ratios between template and print format. With this, the system automatically trims the image files (symmetrically) at the required sides. The system will automatically ask you to select all appropriate screen formats after the file is uploaded, depending on the resolution and the page ratio. Please note that unsharp image files and coarse pixeling are not recognised by the system due to artificially created resolutions, and can lead to a bad print result (no refunds can be claimed in such cases).
Step 1:
Using sandpaper, clean the area at the back of the print on which you would like to place the wall mount. This helps the wall mount stick firmly. After doing this, go over the area with a piece of lint-free cloth dampened with isopropyl or rubbing alcohol and let it dry off.
Step 2:
Measure and mark with a pen the position at the back of the print on which you would like to place the wall mount. To ensure the wall mount is stuck perfectly straight, place the wall mount (with the anti-adhesive paper still attached) onto the back of the print and trace out its outline.
Step 3:
Take off the anti-adhesive paper from the wall mount and check once again that the back of the print is clean. Press the wall mount evenly onto the print.
Step 4:
Lay the print reverse-side up on a flat surface. This will allow the adhesive to dry and harden. Your print will be ready to hang in 24-48 hours.
1. Do not hang the print directly over a heater or under direct sunlight. This helps preserve the ink on the print so you may continue enjoying it.
2. We recommend hanging larger print sizes by mounting them onto at least two nails or screws driven into the wall. Please refrain from hanging large prints onto just a single nail or screw with a cord or an alloy wire.
3. Clean your print using a dry, soft, lint-free cloth – such as microfibre – while preferably wearing soft fabric or vinyl gloves.
4. Please be gentle with your print when cleaning it. Do not use unnecessary force.
5. Do not use any abrasive cleaners, mops, brushes, aggressive detergents, degreasing or spray cleaners, glass cleaners or rubbing alcohol that contain more than 5% acetone, benzene or carbon tetrachloride on your print. Cleaning your print with any of these materials will tarnish it.
