Whirlibird is happy to perform most photos services (scanning, adjusting, manipulating) free-of-charge. We offer photo enhancement on full-size wrappers and other favors as well. This information also pertains to sending us logos or other non-photo artwork. To send your photos to Whirlibird:

1. Complete the wrapper order form. If photo enhancement is available for that design, you will see a checkbox noted, "Add Photo?" Click this box, finish your order, then proceed to complete your order throughout Checkout. (If you are interested in photo enhancement for a design and don't see a checkbox, please email Whirlibird, as we may still be able to perform the service.)

2. Make note of your order number. This is shown after you complete checkout and will also be emailed to you.

3. Send an email to email@whirlibird.com. Attach your photo(s) to the email and simply include your order number somewhere in the body - Whirlibird will do the rest! You may include custom requests or a message in the body of the email. (Please see File Guidelines)

OR:

3. Mail your photo(s) to:

With your photo(s), please include a note with your order number, for the fastest service. Please make sure your photo(s) is packaged securely, and mark the package "Do Not Bend." We accept all sizes and types of photos, but can not be responsible for damages incurred during shipping. While we don't recommend sending us original or only copies, all your photos will be returned with your order.

 

Basic File Guidelines:

1. We accepts most file formats, including Zipped or compressed files, vector image formats, and Macintosh formats. However, if your file cannot be opened, Whirlibird may ask you to re-send the file as a different format.

2. When scanning your files, please try to make them as large as possible. It's always possible for us to shrink down a large photos, but if we blow them up, it may cause a noticeable loss in quality. Whirlibird is always happy to work with what you provide, and will notify you if we think what you provided is insufficient. As a general guideline, please try to make your files no smaller than 500 pixels at the shortest side, and larger if possible.

3. Please always scan your files in "True Color". This includes black and white, and toned images. Do not scan in black and white.

4. Whirlibird accepts files up to 3MB in size. Should you need to send us a larger file, you email us for assistance, or mail a CD to:
