years of memories
From all your friends
Happy birthday
The preview is what gets printed. Upload one to twelve photos: the letters of the word share them, in the order you arrange them. You can change the word; a space starts a new line.
An age in very large numbers, each digit cut out of your photos: from one to twelve, one per memory. A line before and after (“Already 40 years of memories”), a signature, four styles, in colour or black and white. Matt 250 g paper, A4 to 70 × 100 cm, or a print-ready file.
First the object — medium, size, frame — then its content, which you watch take shape in the preview.
Ready to give: printed in our Estaing workshop and shipped within 48 h, with an optional frame on A4 and 30 × 40.
For a last-minute gift: the print file, €8.90, arrives by link the same day — PDF and PNG at 300 dpi, all five sizes.

Which photos to choose? Eight ideas
- One photo per period: childhood in the first digit, today in the second.
- The “0” is an oval: a well-centred face shows better in it than a group.
- The age can be changed: 18, 30, 50, 65, 100.
- More photos than digits: each digit is cut into tiles, one photo per memory.
- Black and white brings together photos from every era.
- A bright photo, facing the camera, the face clearly visible.

Full description
An age in very large numbers, each filled with your photos: childhood in the first digit, today in the second. An “Already 40 years of memories” for a milestone birthday, from 18 to 100.
You upload from one to twelve photos and the letters share them: one photo per letter, or one photo across several neighbouring letters, or a letter cut into several tiles when there are many. You can change the word — a space starts a new line — and the line before and after (“The best… in the world”), the signature and the date are yours. What you see is exactly what is printed; your photos are only used to make the poster and are deleted thirty days after dispatch.

How it works
- You upload your photos
One to twelve photos, all at once. The letters share them: one photo per letter, or one photo across several neighbouring letters, or a letter cut into several tiles when there are many. You put them in the order you want.
- You choose the word and the text around it
The word of the poster, which you can change; what is read before and after (“The best… in the world”), a signature, a small line. Four styles, in colour or in black and white. The preview is what gets printed.
- We print in Aveyron
To order, on 250 g matte paper: in our Aveyron workshop, whatever the size, and every poster is checked there before it ships. Or you receive the download link for the file by e-mail.

Frequently asked questions
What does the poster show?
An age — 40, 18, 65 — in very large numbers, each digit cut out of one of your photos. Around it, a line before and after (“Already 40 years of memories”), a signature and a small line, for example “Happy birthday”. Four paper styles, and photos in colour or in black and white.
How many photos do I need?
From one to twelve, as you like. With fewer photos than letters, one photo runs across several neighbouring letters; with as many, each letter has its own; with more, each letter is cut into several tiles. There is nothing to adjust: the sharing is done for you, and you put the photos in the order you want.
Which photos should I choose so the faces show?
Bright photos taken facing the camera, with the face in the middle. A photo that fills a letter is cropped to the shape of that letter, a little above the centre: a narrow letter, like “I”, keeps only the middle of it. Group photos taken from a distance make the faces tiny; a close-up is better.
Can I change the word?
Yes: that is where you write the age, three digits at most (“40”, “100”). With four photos, each digit gets two; with twelve, six. The age on the page is only an example: the “Check your poster” screen reminds you before you order.
Can I make all the photos black and white?
Yes, it is a choice: black and white applies to all the photos at once, and the preview shows it straight away. It brings together photos taken at different times or with different cameras.
Which size should I choose, and can I see the poster before ordering?
A word on one line is wide and low: it reads well from 30 × 40 cm; a word on two lines works on an A4 as on a 70 × 100. A4 and 30 × 40 come framed. The preview follows every photo you add and every keystroke, and it is exactly what gets printed: the word, the photos, the text, the style.
What happens to the photos I upload?
They are only used to make your poster. They stay private, are never published or used as examples, and are deleted thirty days after your order is dispatched (or after purchase, for the printable file).
