Who designs the puzzles and the corresponding box?
Summit will work with the images that the customer provides to create a layout that meets / exceeds your expectations. Prior to the layout being sent to the printer, Summit will provide you an electronic version of the layout for your final approval.
Summit requires that the customer provide an electronic copy of the image(s) that will be used to create the puzzle. The higher the resolution and the less compression, the better. Digital cameras can take good pictures for puzzles if they are set to high quality. High resolution and super high resolution setting make good images.
We will not use copyrighted images without written copyright release. Summit reserves the right to refuse any image that we deem to be inappropriate.
The higher resolution images will need to be stored on a CD and mailed to Summit Puzzles. Some images can be sent via e-mail. Sending files via our ftp site is also an option.
