What is a Picklist?
Your Picklist is where you add all the images you wish to use in your publication.

Adding to my picklist?
Throughout the search proccess you can add selected pictures to your picklist at any time, by clicking on the 'Add to Picklist' button.

Removing images from my picklist?
You can add and remove images from your picklist at any time, and once you have made a download of high res pictures make sure you 'clear all' ready to begin a new search and request.

Making an Image request
Once you feel confident that your picklist contains all and only the images you wish to use, you can then begin making a request for these images from our sales desk.

During a sales agreement our team will use your username to view the pictures you have selected, that's why it is vital to keep only the images you wish to use in your picklist.
