1. Go to our gallery menu. In the right hand column will be a short description of each gallery, with a small picture. Find the gallery you want to see and click on the picture or gallery name link to open the gallery in a new window. Galleries can have multiple pages.

2. Scan the gallery. You can view the pictures in the gallery in two ways.

a. The thumbnail gallery view shows you a “contact sheet” of 36 photos per page. You can select multiple photos to be added to your shopping cart by clicking on the checkboxes associated with each of your photos and then clicking “add to cart”. You can see a larger version of any pictures by clicking on individual thumbnails. (see a diagram)

b. See larger photos by clicking on the first thumbnail in the gallery and using the VCR-style navigation or the pull-down menu to navigate from photo to photo. Buttons below each picture allow you to add the photo you are viewing to your shopping cart, send a link of the photo to a friend, or return to the thumbnail view of the gallery. (see a diagram)

3. Select the photos you want to print; add them to your cart.

a. In the Thumbnail view, click on the check boxes next to the photos you want to print. Click the “Add to cart” button at the top or bottom of the page. You will be taken to your shopping cart screen where you can select the size of your prints. If you wish to continue shopping, you can return to the gallery by clicking the "Add more images" button in the upper left of the shopping cart page.

b. In the larger image view, click the “Add to cart” button below the image. The image will be added to your cart and the “Add to cart” button changes to a shopping cart icon. To continue shopping, just navigate to the next photo using the controls above the current picture or click the “Go to gallery” button. To view your cart — where you will be able to select print sizes — click the shopping cart icon.

Images remain in your shopping cart for seven days or until you check out, so you can view galleries in multiple sessions and place a single order.

4. Go to your cart and begin checkout. In any view, you can see your shopping cart by clicking any shopping cart icon. (Always at the top of the thumbnail gallery page and next to any selected picture.) Each page of the checkout process has simple instructions at the top of the page.

You begin checkout at the “Configure Image” page. (see a diagram) In the upper left of the page is a checkbox for paper finish, select glossy or matte finish.

Each image you selected from the gallery is offered in many sizes. You may order different sized prints of the same image. Enter a quantity for each size of each image you want to print. (If you have changed your mind about an image and don't want to print it, just leave the quantity as “0” in all sizes.) When you have entered a quantity for each size of print, click the “Continue” button at the bottom of the page.

5. Crop images and confirm information. The next page allows you to crop photos to your selected sizes using Printroom.com's Zoom and Crop feature. (see a diagram) (Read more about Zoom & Crop at Printroom.com.) To get the full photo, framed and cropped by Rick, you should choose the "White Borders" option. This option might result in an uneven white border on the print, but you are guaranteed to get the complete image.

Review your size choices and total. To make changes, click the “Back to Cart” button.

When your images are cropped as you like and you have reviewed your order, click the “Continue” button.

6. Enter your shipping information and select your shipment method. Here is a list of shipping prices. Click the “Total” button to go to the next step.

7. Enter your billing information, check your order information and click “Purchase”. You may pay online by secure credit card transaction or by check or money order.

8. Print your confirmation page or otherwise carefully note your order number. Printroom will send you a status/receipt e-mail.
