Velg mellom våre forhåndsdefinerte størrelser som bevarer kunstverkets opprinnelige proporsjoner.
Du kan oppgi egne mål for å tilpasse en spesifikk ramme eller et bestemt område. Dersom den valgte størrelsen ikke samsvarer med det originale bildets proporsjoner, vil vi enten beskjære kunstverket eller utvide bildet med en speilet eller ensfarget kant. En digital mockup vil bli sendt til din godkjenning før produksjonen starter.
Vennligst merk at forhåndsvisningen på skjermen ikke gjenspeiler den faktiske beskjæringen eller utvidelsen. Kun mockuppen vil vise den endelige komposisjonen nøyaktig.
