1. How to use this site

Think of this store as a shopping mall with several different departments:
1. A shop for sending images directly to your mobile
2. A shop for downloading images to your computer screen
3. You can order a print via Photobox
4. A place to buy prints and cards from a broad back catalogue of fantasy art images
5. You can obtain a license for commercial applications
6. Sample a number of products for FREE

In each department you will be able to make transactions but you won't be able to mix stores. For example, if you want to send an image to your mobile then the payment will be added directly to your bill or deducted from your phone credit and you will not need to use a credit card. However, you would need to make payments in the other departments using our safe, easy and secure Paypal or a card payment methods. The gift store checkout and Print gallery is entirely separate to the downloadable wallpapers section and so forth so you would need to make separate payments. But there's no harm in taking your time to browse. You might even prefer not to make all your purchases at once! (Back to the top)
