Select this category for most paper-based printed items, including Posters, Prints, Photographs, Certificates, and so on.

Items in this category will usually be dry-mounted on acid-free Bainbridge Speedmount, giving them a flat, smooth finish, free of bubbles and waving.

This category should be used for Embroidery, Cross-stitch, petit-point, and other needlework where fabric is left exposed around the stitching.

Items in this category are usually stretched and stapled to a board, or dry-mounted using a heat-activated fabric mounting film, depending on the exact nature of the work.

Tapestries, longstitches, and other full-coverage needleworks fit in this category.

In almost all cases, these are stretched and stapled onto a board, to bring the image into square and take up any loose stitching.

Any artwork on a solid board fits into this category. This includes Oil, Acrylic, Poster Paint, and other media on a rigid board such as an artist Canvas Board.

It can also include paintings on Canvas that are already stretched onto an adequate Stretcher Bar.

Paintings on non-rigid canvas, whether they are Oil, Acrylic, or any other paint type.

In most cases, these items are dry-mounted to a backing board with a heat activated fabric mounting film.

This category is for any non-fixed art media, such as pastels, charcoals, pencils, wax crayons, and other artwork which is easily smudged or smeared.

Items in this category are usually fitted with a spacer to keep the artwork away from the glass or matboard, to prevent damage to the artwork.

Any artwork on paper that is not perfectly flat should use this category. Watercolour, Acrylic on Paper, and similar artworks belong here.

Artwork like this is usually not mounted, and is instead hinged in place to the mat or backing board, to allow the artwork to contract and expand without creating harsh creases.

3D Artwork, such as Papertole, requires spacers between the matboards, and a deep frame, to accomodate the depth of the artwork.

Mixed Media, Shell Art, and other non-flat artwork fits in this category.
