Can I add my dog or my family to my city?

Yes. Upload their photo on the Add a photo tab and they are drawn into your place, in front of its landmarks. It is optional: with no photo the piece is the place alone. One clear daylight photo with faces turned toward the camera works best, and a phone photo is fine.

A clear acrylic panel on brass standoffs above a stone fireplace: the Maroon Bells over an alpine lake with golden aspens and a Border Collie on the shore in glossy glass shards, "Colorado" in gold script over THE CENTENNIAL STATE; the same Border Collie lies on the rug below

What photo works best?

The same photo you would pick for a frame: the faces, in good light.

  • Daylight, or a bright room.
  • Faces turned toward the camera, eyes showing.
  • The whole dog or person in the frame, not cut off at the ears.
  • JPEG, PNG or HEIC, straight from your phone.

How many people or pets fit?

One to a few read best. A dog or a couple stands out against a skyline; a crowd gets small beside the towers. The shop has examples: a Border Collie in the Colorado mountains, a German Shepherd on the Maine coast, an English Bulldog in Philadelphia, and a family on Hawaii’s beach.

Does the beanie take a photo too?

It can, but its print is small and sits on the front of the cuff, so the place name and one landmark read best there. A dog on a beanie is a small dog. For a portrait that people can see from across the room, choose a panel or the suncatcher.
