Terms of Service

Dear Customers:
Among the many photographs you may have, some are likely to have such low resolution/low quality that OMM can not fully eliminate/correct all undesirable artifacts. While we at OMM continue to work each day to advance our “painting” technology, if you are not satisfied, please upload another photo because OMM produces desirable results almost all the time.
