Instructions for uploading an image

You can upload your own image covering one or more squares. Each square is 33×33 pixels. If you want a larger image than one square provides, you can order several squares next to each other. The image will be adapted to fit over more squares. For example, an order of 6 squares with 3 in width and 2 in height will result in an image that is pieced together to 99 X 66 pixels. If you upload an image with a 3:2 (width:height) ratio, the image will be correctly cropped and pieced together across the squares.

An image with a different format may be unfavorably cropped if the format of the uploaded image is not correctly adapted to your order of boxes. A logo with text will often be more squares in width than in height. Check the format of the logo before deciding how to put the squares together like a puzzle over the logo. A square logo/image will fit in one square but the resolution of the logo/image will not be the best. Choose multiple squares (e.g. 2 X 2 or 3 X 3 squares) if you want your square logo/image to be more visible.
