Your personal Pixum inbox is a place where all images uploaded to Pixum are collected and stored temporarily (after uploading for 28 days). If you are not logged in, your images will be stored there until the end of your session (when you close the internet browser).

Your images in the inbox are sorted by upload date: There are following groups:

• "photos uploaded today"
• "photos uploaded yesterday"
• "photos older than 2 days"

There is also the group "old/deleted photos from albums". Here you will find all images deleted from an album or images that have been in your inbox longer than 21 days. These images are stored in your inbox for another 7 days before they are permanently deleted.

Where can I find the inbox?

You can go to the inbox at any time by clicking on the tab "Upload photos". If you are logged in, you can also go to the inbox by clicking on the tab "My Pixum" and then on "Inbox" in the blue navigation bar.

Which features are available in the inbox?

Place images in the shopping basket

• The default setting is all images in the inbox are marked/selected. You can recognise this by the orange frame around the image and the box underneath the image is ticked.
• Select the images you wish to order. The options "Select all", "Select none" and "Invert selection" in the right upper corner above the images will help you.
• Then click on the orange button "Order now".
• Select the desired size. You can change the size of prints for all or single images in the shopping basket, just like the number of prints per image.

Images already placed in the shopping basket remain in your inbox and are marked with a blue frame. To order these images, please go to your shopping basket and finish your order. If you want your images to be stored in your Pixum account permanently, please move them from the inbox to an online album. This can be done before or after placing the order, for the duration of 4 weeks after uploading the images.

Place images in an album

• The default setting is all images in the inbox are marked/selected. You can recognise this by the orange frame around the image and the box underneath the image is ticked.
• Select the images you wish to move into an album. The options "Select all", "Select none" and "Invert selection" in the right upper corner above the images will help you.
• Then click on "Into an album".
• Enter a name for the new album or select an existing album from the list to which you want to add the images. The name of one album is shown. If you have more than one album, a list will appear when clicking on the first mentioned album. Here you can select the chosen album by clicking on the name.
• Confirm your selection by clicking on "Continue".

Your images are moved to the chosen album. You can now place the images from the album directly in the shopping basket and start your order.

Delete images (permanently)

When deleting images from an album they are moved to the inbox, which is a temporary "recycle bin". The images are stored here for another 7 days, before they are permanently deleted. To permanently delete images immediately please take following steps:

• Select the images you wish to delete from the inbox. The options "Select all", "Select none" and "Invert selection" in the right upper corner above the images will help you.
• If an image is marked (selected) can be recognised by the orange frame around the image and the box underneath the image is ticked.
• Then click on "Delete images" and confirm by clicking on "OK".

Upload more images

You can upload images to your inbox at any moment and in any desired quantity. Simply use the upload feature offered in the upper left corner of the inbox page. Naturally you can also select a different upload method for uploading more images to your inbox. You can select different upload methods by clicking on the tab "Upload photos" in the main menu.

Is there a maximum of images I can upload to my inbox?

No, there is no limit to the number of images in your inbox. Even the storage capacity for the inbox has no limits. Please note however that single image files cannot be bigger than 50MB for the upload. You can find our file requirements here
