iPrintfromHome.com will announce a special Tuesday Tweet Treat each Tuesday that will only be valid until the clock strikes midnight EST that day.
---

I am going to a conference at Kodak the week of June 15th and will be unable to run the Tuesday Tweet Treat promotion. That means that you won't be able to turn in your Tweet Treat this week, BUT we're giving you advance notice on next week's treat so you can get ready.

Feel free to get your images ready and even upload them to your account at iPrintfromHome, but please do not place your order until 12:00am EST on June 23rd, 2009. Don't get me in trouble with the boss for letting the cat out of the bag early!!

Looking to cut through all the clutter with your promotional materials and invitations, but not sure how to do it?

Make something extraordinary.

Using Photographic Paper to make your promo prints, invitations and greeting cards can help you do just that.

Many times, your promotional materials and invitations will be a prospective client's first introduction to your work. Make sure you give them something that demonstrates what you're capable of.


In keeping with the theme of giving your work away, you might consider sending your 25 promo prints to your 25 best contacts. Slide your 5x7s into envelopes and send them to work. Get people excited about what you're doing and entice them to ask to see more.

Go ahead and WOW people with your handouts. Give them something that belongs on display, not in a pile of junk mail.

This Week's Tuesday Tweet Treat: 1 Free 11x14 Photographic Print - Kodak Pro Photo Papers: Glossy, Matte, Lustre or Metallic**

Father's Day is just around the corner...

Why don't you show off for Dad a little this year?


Let him see what you can do - give him an 11x14 print of your work.

Then sit back and smile as he brags to all his buddies about you - the kid who learned how to fly.

Well, maybe you haven't quite learned how to fly...but some people might say you're attempting the impossible - you're pursuing a dream - trying to make a living doing what you love. :o)

One of the simplest things you can do to help yourself reach your goal is to start sending your work out into the world.

Don't bury yourself in your studio, surrounded by an inventory of prints you haven't quite figured out how to sell. Give those prints away. Let people see your work. Once you do, you'll be surprised by how quickly you start hearing from people who want to see more.

**Offer does not include shipping.

Instructions:
1. Place an order for an 11x14 Photographic Print at iPrintfromHome.com between 12:00am and 11:59pm EST on June 9th, 2009.
2. IMMEDIATELY after placing your order, send us an e-mail (here) with "Tuesday Tweet Treat - 1 Free 11x14 Photographic Print" in the body of the e-mail.

This Week's Tuesday Tweet Treat: 1 Free 12x36 Panoramic Photographic Print - Kodak Pro Photo Papers: Metallic or Glossy**

In keeping with last week's theme, we again invite you to view and frame your world from a different perspective. This week, we invite you to explore the world of panoramic printing.


We're all used to seeing 4x6, 8x10 and 16x20 prints. Most people think in terms of these standard print sizes and aspect ratios (ratio of the height to the width) when they shoot photographs, make art and order prints. But given the opportunity to experiment a little, you can, in the words of one of our customers, produce some "drop-dead gorgeous" images.

**Offer does not include shipping.

Instructions:
1. Place an order for a 12x36 Panoramic Photographic Print at iPrintfromHome.com between 12:00am and 11:59pm EST on June 2nd, 2009.
2. IMMEDIATELY after placing your order, send us an e-mail (here) with "Tuesday Tweet Treat - 1 Free 12x36 Panoramic Photographic Print" in the body of the e-mail.
3. Once we receive your e-mail, we will adjust your order so that you not charged for one 12x36 Panoramic Photographic Print.

Tuesday Tweet Treat - May 26th, 2009

iPrintfromHome.com will announce a special Tuesday Tweet Treat each Tuesday that will only be valid until the clock strikes midnight EST that day.

We're posting this week's Tweet Treat a little early due to the holiday weekend.

This Week's Tuesday Tweet Treat: 75% off Square Photographic Prints: 5x5, 10x10, 12x12 & 20x20**


You asked for it...

We heard you. :o)

Square prints are here!!

iPrintfromHome.com is now pleased to offer 5x5, 10x10, 12x12 & 20x20 Photographic Prints.

If you've never tried square-format printing, we encourage you to use this week's Tweet Treat to try it out.

View and frame your world from a different perspective.

Oftentimes, people are so focused on the image they're capturing or creating, that they forget to pay any attention to the format (horizontal vs. vertical vs. square). This decision, however, is critical to composition.

Working within a format that is a little out of the ordinary can help make your work extraordinary.

Also, in keeping with last week's theme, remember that summer is just around the corner, which means we're getting into the art show/festival season. And, it's time to start getting ready.

We're offering another large discount this week so that you can use the Tweet Treat to start building up your inventory for your shows.

**Offer only applicable to first $75.00 worth of Square Sized Photographic Prints in your order.

Instructions:
1. Place an order for Square Photographic Prints (5x5, 10x10, 12x12, or 20x20) at iPrintfromHome.com between 12:00am and 11:59pm EST on May 26th, 2009.
2. IMMEDIATELY after placing your order, send us an e-mail (here) with "Tuesday Tweet Treat - 75% Off Square Prints" in the body of the e-mail.
3. Once we receive your e-mail, we will adjust your order so that you are given a 75% discount on first $75.00 worth of Square-Sized Photographic Prints in your order.

New ICC Profiles

iPrinfromHome.com is pleased to offer new modified ICC profiles for our Photographic Printing systems. We will begin using these profiles in print production on Tuesday, May 12th.

So what does this mean for you?
If you haven’t used ICC profiles before and you’re satisfied with your prints: You don’t need to do anything.

If you are already using our ICC profiles to soft proof your images, you should click here to download the new profiles.

These new profiles include a modification to help improve our work flow, but do not differ much from the profiles we are currently using. Accordingly, you most likely will not actually notice a difference in the prints that you receive. However, we know how important color management is to you and we want to keep you up to date on any changes we make to our production processes.

What are ICC Profiles?
ICC profiles allow your imaging software, such as Photoshop, to preview on your monitor the way that your digital files will look as Photographic Prints from iPrintfromHome.com. This process is commonly known as "soft proofing".

However, the first step to properly utilizing these profiles is to establish your own color managed work flow. To learn more about Color Management, please click here.

May Art Show Listing

Today's Tuesday Tweet Treat: 1 Free 20x30 Photographic Print - Kodak Pro Photo Papers: Metallic, Glossy, Lustre or Matte**

You know what's exciting about 20x30 Prints?

They're BIG! And, big gets attention


Whether it's hanging in your living room or in your booth at an arts festival, people will notice your work.

In fact, a whole bunch of our customers order big prints for this specific reason - they hang big prints in their booths so that people walking in the crowd see their work and then mosey on over to see what other jewels they have to offer.

When you looked at the above image of the living room did your eye move to the print hanging over the couch? So did mine. The same thing will happen with images hanging on your walls. Or hanging on other people's walls. :o)

In keeping with last week's Tweet Treat theme, you might consider giving your 20x30 away as a gift. The quickest way to become an artist whose work adorns walls is to start hanging your work. So pick out one of your favorite images and let us help you print it for the world to see.

**Offer does not include shipping.

Instructions:
1. Place an order for one 20x30 Photographic Print at iPrintfromHome.com by midnight EST on May 5th.
2. IMMEDIATELY after placing your order, send us an e-mail (here) with "Tuesday Tweet Treat – Free 20x30" in the body of the e-mail.
3. Once we receive your e-mail, we will adjust your order so that you are not charged for your 20x30 Photographic Print.
