Frequently asked questions
How many credits does colourisation cost?
Three credits per photograph, charged only when a colourised file is produced.
Can I tell it the real colours?
Yes — use the notes box to say things like 'the dress was navy blue' and it will follow that.
Will the photo be sharpened or cropped?
No. Detail, framing and composition are kept as they are; only colour is added.
Should I restore the photo first?
If the print is damaged, restore it first for a cleaner colourisation. Each run is charged separately.
