I'm trying to put together birth announcements, and I really like a lot of the designs on Minted. But I'm having a lot of trouble with the personalization tool. When I click an element to type in my text (like to replace the name on the stock card with M's name), I can't see the changes I'm making as I type. I have to type blindly and then click the "preview" button to update the changes. Some of the cards look like they won't let me enter his first and middle name because the text box isn't big enough? (It's Michael Robert, so nothing crazy long.)
Is this how the webpage is supposed to work, or is there something wrong with my software? It's really annoying and makes me want to look elsewhere for birth announcements. (wilted)
ETA: Tagging SJ because I know you ordered from Minted.
When I order from them I get a final proof emailed to me within a day or so - I don't see it on the website. Their designers will take your info and make it look good, so the preview tool isn't all that accurate in my experience. I haven't ordered in a year though, their process may have changed?
never had that problem on my end - DS' birth announcements came from there. They did a GREAT job of making sure the colors meshed and the alignment was spot on.
I got my wedding invites from there - ditto others that you should try a different browser (or upgrade if it's an old version). If the name is too long you can drop the font size in the personalization tool.
