What about payment?

I prefer to use PayPal, they are secure and offer a relatively painless way to do business. You don't need an acoount to make payments as they accept all major credit cards. Drop me an email and I will supply you with the details. When making an order please add the url of the image and the size you require. If PayPal is not an option for you and you live locally, a bank transfer or bank guaranteed cheque can be arranged.
