Updated review After a few initial problems with my order, Harper who works from Poparta got in touch and sorted everything out for me, and I am really pleased with the final product which we received today. It is of a great quality and my husband is really happy with his Christmas present.

Great customer service Great customer service. They would reply back to emails within just a few minutes. They worked around all my changes I wanted to my picture. The reason I'm giving them 4 stars and not 5 is because I ordered a wall tapestry and received a canvas instead. But overall great experience and I love how the product turned out!

Our First Selfie 2009 We met in 2009 and while relaxing after a movie we watched together, Jenn shot this, our first Selfie. Well it's been 5 years and we are still together and last Valentine's Day as a gift I found the picture and sent it to be memorialized as a painting... just like the greats of the past. She loved it and it hangs in our bedroom.

I am thrilled with the picture of our… I am thrilled with the picture of our black Labrador. I had to make a couple of online alterations to his whiskers and eyes and the new picture came back quickly. Very happy with the service and product. The fact that the pictures are built from photos means they fully capture the expression/character you want to display.

Poor communication and customer service I called PopArta.com to ask about a project that I knew would be a modification of one of their existing templates. I called with the goal of getting a better understanding of what they could and could not do so that, perhaps, I could modify my project to fit their capabilities. The person who answered the phone did not seem to understand design and printing processes, and struggled to communicate in English. As a result, every time I asked for information or an explanation, he would put me on hold and convey my question to an "editor." For example, I would say something like, "Your website shows that you can do XX. But you've just told me you can't actually do that. Can you explain why?" He would say, "Let me ask." Then he would come back with the editor's response, which usually didn't have anything to do with the question. This went on for 10 minutes. At no point did the representative say, "You know what? Something is being lost in translation. Perhaps you and the editor could schedule a time to talk directly." Rather than seeking information from me to make sure they understood what I was hoping to accomplish, the company made assumptions about what they thought I was asking for. They threw up brick walls instead of exploring solutions. I ended up having my project created by a company whose website shows the same capabilities as PopArta.com.
