• We recommend uploading all of your images at once as you can only upload photos at the 'upload stage' on Picter. If you are filling out image descriptions and find you still have more images to add, please use the left-hand menu to navigate back to the upload page.
• Important: Please double check that you have submitted all desired photos before proceeding to checkout. You may enter up to 10 images (in any category) as a single project. You may enter multiple “projects.”‍
