Selfie Stamps - Photo Format and File Tips

Use these top tips to create the perfect mini version of you on a stamp! 

Simply upload a high quality/resolution photo from your phone or PC. Make sure your face is the main focus of the photo and is large within the frame. See the guide tab on the Selfie Stamp page for an illustrated explanation of what works best.

We will create 2 versions of your face - one simplified for use with custom stamps and the other coloured in case you decide to add personalised stickers or other printed product now or in the future.

A digital proof will be emailed to you to approve before we produce anything, so you can see exactly how it will look before we go ahead. Please make sure that your email address is correct, and you check your junk folder for your proof. The quicker we receive your approval, the quicker we can ship your order!

Please note that as part of the image conversion, some very minor variations from your original image may occur, such as slight simplification of fine detail or subtle shading differences. This is a normal part of the process and is what gives your stamp its clean, bold finish. Your proof is your chance to review and approve everything first.
