Personalization Guide

A few simple tips for a light that looks its best.

Choosing your photo

  • Use the original photo, not a screenshot or a photo of a printed photo.
  • Pick a clear, well-lit photo. Daylight photos print best.
  • Keep faces near the middle – edges may be trimmed to fit the shape.
  • Larger, original files look sharper than photos saved from social media or messages.
  • Simple backgrounds work best on engraved and 3D lights.

Adding names, dates and messages

  • Check spelling, dates and capital letters carefully – we make exactly what you type.
  • Shorter text looks cleaner and easier to read.
  • Check the design on screen to make sure your text fits before adding to cart.

Song-code lights

  • Choose the song and artist in the customizer; the scannable code is created from your choice.
  • Scan the code with the scanner in a free music app and the song opens on your phone – the light itself does not play music.

Before you order

  • Look at the design on screen carefully – it's the best guide to how your light will look.
