All About Photostyles

Photo-Styles

Give your photo a makeover then watch it star in a number of product videos! A 'Photostyle' is a new version of your uploaded photo that has been restyled and resized to give you the ultimate photo to put on a photo gift. A lot of digital photos taken are not always suitable for photo gifts because either the background spoils the photo, or when cropped to fit a photo gift vital parts of the photo get cut off. Photostyles are designed with different photo gifts in mind so your image stays whole and the original background is replaced by a new one so disturbing objects are no longer a problem. Your personal photostyles are presented on product videos to give you that virtual shopping experience and help you decide which product it looks best on. When you upload your photo, it is turned into a complete collection of 'Photostyles' to suit a variety of products, occasions and personal tastes – one or more of which will definitely give your photo gift a designer look!
