Types of Digital Downloads
There are 2 types of digital downloads in PhotoDay:
High-Resolution Downloads will be downloaded by the customer at the same resolution as the original uploaded photo, though slightly compressed for download speed optimization. These include a print release.
Social Sharing Downloads are automatically resized to 900 pixels wide by the proportional height. These do not include a print release.
Digital Download Costs
There are no costs for Social Sharing or High-Resolution downloads. When adding downloads to a price sheet, there is a minimum retail price requirement of $2.00.
"Download All My Photos"
The “Download All My Photos” product (or Download All for short) allows you to offer customers all images of one subject as High-Res digital downloads for a set price. The number of images included in the product will be variable depending on the number of images included in the gallery for the selected subject.
This product is powered by FaceFind, so you don’t have to do any manual matching! All you have to do is set the price for the Download All product, then your customers can get every photo of their child as High-Res digital downloads—instantly with just a few clicks. Learn more.
