| I want to buy my own print of the last challenge "speed". However, when I go to the section in which i can buy my own prints it doesn't have either size (18x6 or 36x12) available. These are the size choices in the public print store, but i cant get them in my own private print store. What is going on? |

Panorama sizes aren't available in the personal store. You'll have to knock the public price down to base, place your order, then put the price back up.

For some reason that has never been completely explained, you can't buy panoramic shots from your own print store. You will have to submit your print for review to be sold publicly. When approved, set the price to equal the base price, then buy it there. That's what I did with:

| Thanks for the help. Kinda weird that you can't get your own panoramic shots. However, there are ways around pretty much everything that work just as well. |

This could be a programming oversight. I'll check with Drew.

It's not a programming oversite. I think it was Drew who told me before that it has something to do with the printer, or something, that they can't do it that way with panoramic shots. |

I've actually explained it in the forums before, but I guess I need to code forum search before I can find that. The problem has to do with how panoramics are billed (in increments), so they're a special case when it comes to your own prints that you can crop/fit to any print size. Right now, yes, the solution is to lower your selling price, buy them from the public store, and then reraise your price. Sorry for the hassle.

Actually . . .
I wanted to order a print of THIS before I put it up for "general sale." So, I go to my own page, but no panoramics. Okay, so, I want it to be 12" inches long, so I choose 12X12. Then, it gave me a choice of cropping it to fit, OR having white edges. I chose white edges because I figured I could cut them off and 12X4 would be plenty big enough. I got the shipment, and pulled that puppy out. 12X4 -- nope. This puppy is 36" X 12". It's now hanging above my bed. A little grainy, but I still like it. Not sure what the 18 X 6 would look like. Better, I suppose.
