If you followed our photo guidelines, then yes your photo is very likely good enough to use.
• Make sure the photo is taken in good lighting (outdoor daylight is best)
• Try to take the photo at eye level with your pet
• They don't need to be looking at the camera
• Try to get a close up so we can see your pet's unique features
• Make sure the photo is not blurry
• Make sure no features (e.g. ears!) are out of frame - we can't add them if they aren't in the original photo
• Ensure that the fur color in the photo is not affected by bad lighting. If the fur in the photo is not accurate to real life, the fur in the design won't be either
We conduct a photo check for every new order we receive and will email you if we need a different one. But it's best to take matters in to your own hands and ensure you upload the best photo you have.
If we do need a new photo from you, this may lengthen your delivery time by a few days.
Please note that if you refuse to provide a replacement after we have informed you that the original photo may not result in quality canvas art, then we cannot refund you. It's your responsibility to ensure that you are happy with the photo you provide.
Note that is is the customer's responsibility to provide a high quality photo and although we do review orders, it is not our responsibility to chase you for a better photo. Low quality photos will not result in a high spec design that we show on site. All examples on our website were produce using high quality photos.
We can print any animal no matter the species or the breed. So far we're created unique masterpieces for dogs, cats, birds, horses, micro-pigs and even hedgehogs! Our artists are incredibly talented and can work with any animal on earth.
Right now we only allow one pet per canvas. In the future we may add limited edition multiple-pet portrait styles.
Just pets.
No this normally doesn't effect the artwork. What we are looking for primarily is a clear photo of your pet head on. Think of it like a mugshot of your pet. The most important requirements are a clear photo with the entire head showing.
Please contact us directly at sales@pixelpaw.com and we will work with you to try to make a perfect tribute for you.
We are a digital design studio and we use a range of proprietary photo editing techniques, professional photo re-touching as well as a number of complex brush strokes and blending processes to turn your original photo in to a pet portrait.
You can change your order for 24 hours. If you placed your order more than 24 hours ago, we can't guarantee that we can change it.
Yes, of course if requested we will send you an email once your proof(s) are ready to be approved. You simple click on the link in the email and view your proof.
We offer unlimited revisions, however we do reserve the right to refuse unreasonable requests.
We offer the following sizes;
8x10 Canvas
8x8 Canvas
10x10 Canvas
12x12 Canvas
20x20 Canvas
12x16 Canvas
16x20 Canvas
Sorry but we can't offer to add things like accessories, extra background colors or extra bits to your chosen costume. We are very proud of our work and like to keep things uniform (pardon the pun!)
We can sometimes edit out tears, sleep and drool if you ask us but we cannot guarantee it. We cannot perform major edits such as opening a closed mouth or adding floppy ears.
However, if your pet is wearing some accessory in the original photo, we will always include it.
The same goes for collars - we do remove collars for almost all portraits but it's always best for those that show some neck that you provide a photo of your pet without a collar on.
Right now we can't change the background colors for you. If you have a very dark pet and are afraid they won't show up on a custom with a black background, we would generally advise selecting a different costume.
If you provide a black and white image we will change the portrait you selected to to be black and white to match your photo. Note that we do not colorize black and white images. If you supply a black and white image you will get a black and white portrait.

We accept all cancellation requests made within 24 hours of placing the order, no questions asked.
Any cancellation request sent after this 24 hour window will be accepted at our discretion. If accepted, you will be subject to a 20% cancellation fee. This is because your artist will have been assigned and will have already spent time working on your artwork by this point.
Orders that have been sent to print cannot be cancelled under any circumstance.
