-- Smügmüg is an excellent online photo service, and their help pages should answer any and all questions. Be sure to check their help page on ordering prints of photos.
These are private galleries, i.e. not open to the general public on the Internet. You need to use the weblink that came with the email. You can forward that weblink to family and friends; however, it would really be appreciated if it was not posted in a public place. Thanks in advance for honoring this request.
Can I order prints?
Yes! Smügmüg uses large high-end printers that can make very nice prints.
Can I order prints in different sizes?
Yes, when you click on Buy, prints are accumulated in your Cart and when you check out, you can specify size, number, etc. Please note: my photos are optimized for 4-by-6 inch prints. If you select larger prints, you may be given the choice of cropping your prints. My suggestion is to use "No crop", even though this can result in 2 extra white borders on the top or sides of larger prints. It's easy to trim off those borders with a paper cutter or scissors. Any cropping, prior to printing, will result in the loss of some of the picture.
How about the auto-color?
Smügmüg has another option when ordering prints called auto-color. In certain situations, that is a very nice option to have; however, I've spent a lot of time balancing the color in these photos, using a product called Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, so you shouldn't need to make any further color adjustments. In fact, I can't actually predict how the prints might turn out, so I would suggest not using auto-color.
It says my image needs to be cropped?!
Please note: my photos are optimized for either 4-by-6 or 5-by-7 inch prints. You may be given the choice of cropping your prints. My suggestion is to use "No crop", even though this can result in 2 extra white borders on the top or sides of larger prints. It's easy to trim off those borders with a paper cutter or scissors. Any cropping, prior to printing, will result in the loss of some of the image.
Can I download photos and print them myself?
Yes, you can right-click and download photos. (On a Mac without a two-button mouse, you would need to Control-click). Note: this feature may not be available in certain galleries.
I don't like my picture. Can you please remove it?
Yes, of course. Please email me, listing the title of the picture(s) you wish to have removed. The title appears under the bottom left-hand corner of each photo. Note: it's the number at the end which is key here. You should be able to copy & paste the entire photo title into an email, if needed.
