Picture Mosaics

482 Norristown Rd, Suite 110

Blue Bell, PA 19422

note: To get your CD/DVD to us quickly, it is recommend that you use UPS, FedEx, or the Postal Service.

Important: As digital media is very inexpensive (and usually costing more than postage itself), your CD/DVD will not be returned. If you would like your CD returned, please include self addressed return packaging with your CD/DVD with the correct postage.

Send your non-digital pictures

Step 1:

Purchase a Picture Mosaic from the purchase page. Be sure to select the option that you will be physically sending your pictures to us, and approximately number of pictures you will be sending.

Step 2:

Follow the Cell Guidelines (click here). Place all cell pictures in an envelope labeled "CELLS".  Cell pictures must oriented in the same direction, i.e. they may not be backwards, sideways, or upside-down.  You MUST also sort differently sized pictures (into envelopes). You may not have more than four sets of differently sized/oriented pictures.

*Pictures must be at least 3in by 3in and no greater than 8.5in by 11in.

Step 3:

Follow the Source Guidelines (click here).  Identify your source picture by placing it in a separate envelope labeled "SOURCE".
