Frequently asked questions
How and when will my order will shipped?
Many items in my shop are now made and sent to order via my printing partner, this means the time for dispatch will vary. It's best to check each product but the average is around 72 hours before dispatch.
If you order multiple different things they may arrive in multiple packages.
Standard UK orders are sent via Royal Mail or Evri depending on the product.
International Orders are shipped with tracking provided. The carrier varies depending on the product.
Can I track my order?
The standard UK shipping option varies but a majority of orders are sent tracked. Very small orders (e.g. 1 postcard) will not include tracking.
All international orders are sent tracked and you will recieve a tracking number after dispatch.
Do you design everything yourself?
Everything on Print is Dead is my own work. As part of the design process, I may use stock imagery, textures, fonts etc. and I purchase licenses when I use these aspects.
Do you make and print everything yourself?
Everything at Print is Dead is my own original work, but I work with printers to bring them to life. Many items are drop shipped directly from my print supplier.
Print is Dead? But you're selling prints!
The name is based on the seemingly contradictory phrase 'The King is Dead! Long live the King!', so it's about the continuation of print, in a time when printed media is becoming less commonplace and about celebrating traditional printing methods. And of course, I'm selling prints inspired by the macabre so it's a little double entendre too.
How long have you been doing this?
I started Print is Dead during my MA in Graphic Design at Nottingham Trent University in October 2017, but I've been working commercially as a Graphic Designer and illustrator for almost 10 years now after originally graduating with a BA in Graphic Design from the Arts Institute at Bournemouth.
Do you do custom orders or prints?
Absolutely - if you're after a different size, colour or want something created completely from scratch I am open to custom orders and will see if I can accommodate. Message me through Etsy and we can take it from there.
Can I get a tattoo of your work?
I love tattoos and I am more than happy to see my work on skin. It would be really appreciated if you do want to get a tattoo of my work, that you buy something to support my art. Please also let the tattoo artist know who to attribute the design to if they share on social media - I can be found on instagram @_printisdead_ - feel free to tag me in as I love seeing the end results. :)
