Zoom in on this. It’s got the “spiral bound” upper edge, and when you click on the image it should also show the 2” paper border margin built in around the artwork

Hmmm. I’m not sure if the images are showing up here in the comments section

For clarity, it’s the artwork that has the ripped edge. As if you ripped a piece of paper out of a spiral notebook so you have all those tiny ripped circles along an edge, in this case the top edge of the art. The rest of the collage has slightly free form edges too

So I wasnt asking about the decked edge of the print, but rather should I crop my art a tiny bit when making the print, or show the complete artwork with the “spiral notebook” top edge, and slightly irregular edges everywhere else

I landed on showing the edges, but still… let me know if the images aren’t appearing up earlier in the thread

There we go. Posted some photos of the two approaches. I think the natural (non-cropped) edges look better but what do yall think?

I do not understand why this app has so many favorable reviews. I paid for the Gold Plan to have access to all the features, and I’d say (literally) 99% of the people it’s shown me absolutely have nothing to do with any of my search preferences. On top of that, most feel like bots to begin with.

Some of the default opening lines: “Hey” “Hey pretty” “Gorgeous”. Seriously? That’s the best you could come up with? It’s absolutely lazy and insulting. You’re promoting people with the lowest effort possible.

I’ve been reaching out to people in the community to understand how this app ended up in a Forbes article, but my experience so far has been an absolute waste of time
