What People Say About us
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why would I choose a photo pin instead of an enamel one?
You should choose a photo pin when your design contains gradients, shadows, or photographic elements. Enamel pins are ideal for logos with solid, distinct colors, but they cannot reproduce the complex details of a photograph. The photo process guarantees a perfect, full-color replica of your original image.
What file format is best to submit for my photo pin?
For the sharpest result, we recommend submitting your artwork as a high-resolution vector file (like an .AI or .EPS) or a high-quality raster file (like a .PSD or .TIFF) at 300 DPI or higher. This ensures our printing process has the maximum amount of detail to work with, resulting in a crisp, clear pin.
Is the printed image on a photo pin durable?
Yes, it is extremely durable. The printed image is protected by a hard, transparent epoxy coating that is permanently bonded to the pin. This dome shields the artwork from scratches, moisture, and UV exposure, preventing fading and ensuring the image remains pristine for years of display and wear.
Can you create a pin that is cut to the custom shape of our logo?
Absolutely. While we can print your image on standard shapes like circles or squares, we specialize in creating custom die-cut pins that follow the unique outline of your logo or photograph. This creates a more dynamic and memorable piece that perfectly aligns with your brand’s specific visual identity.
