Image Rules & Guidelines
In order to use an image for a Custom Miche Shell or a Custom Gallery shell you must:
- Own the image or have permission from the owner to use the image on your shell
- Have approval from the owner if you use any logo, name, or tag line that isn't yours.
- Custom Miche holds the right to accept or deject any image. Images that are prohibited include:
- Trademarks, copyrighted materials, advertising, or branding.
- Celebrities, musicians, athletes, entertainers, or other public figures.
- Cartoon characters or artwork that you have not created and/or do not have permission from the copyright owner to use.
- Violent, offensive, anti-social, or death imagery - including any other material that could be perceived as violent.
- Provocative, lewd, or sexual content - including nude, semi-nude, or partially clothed pictures of people of any age
- Socially unacceptable or discriminatory behavior or signs. For example, gangs, hatred, drug or alcohol abuse, graffiti, profanity, or other obscene behavior or gestures.
- If your image is not approved because it doesn't meet these guidelines, or for any other reason, you will be notified by email. You may then submit another image.
- Things to keep in mind:
- Ideal images will use the Custom Miche templates to be assured that all images meet our size guidelines. You may download those here.
- If you're not sure about the size or pixel dimensions of your image, it may be faster and easier to find the image you wish to use before you browse and attempt to upload your image to the Custom Miche application.
- On a PC, you can usually find image size and pixel dimensions by right-clicking on the file and selecting "Properties".
- On a Mac, you can usually find pixel dimensions by clicking on the file and selecting "Get Info"
- Larger images may take longer to upload depending on your connection speed.
- Small images may not reproduce well in print.
- If your image doesn't meet our file size, file format, or pixel dimension guidelines you may alter using such programs as Gimp, Photobucket, or professional software such as Adobe Photoshop.
