How to buy an image on the APL site:

If this is your first time buying images on the APL website, or you have got stuck, then this step by step guide should help you:

In order to buy an image from APL, you must first set up a personal APL account. This allows APL to keep track of the images you are browsing and also allows you access to a wider range of features on the site, such as the use of lightboxes. To set up an account with APL click here.

Once you have set up an account you will be able to purchase images on-line. To buy an image:

1. Click on the image you require. This will take you to a page with a larger version of the image, the details of the image and image prices. All images on the APL site are royalty free. This means that APL has set prices for every image according to image size. For more information on image sizes and prices click here.

2. If you are happy with the image and image price, then click on the “add to basket” icon.

3. You will then be presented with a drop down menu. You will need to use this menu to select your image size. Then click on the “proceed” button below.

4. This will take you to the final stage of the buying process - your basket - where a total amount for your image will have been calculated including VAT.

You can carry on browsing the site from here and adding images to your basket as you desire.

If you add an image to your basket and then decide you do not want to buy it, all you need to do is to click on the “Del” icon, which appears alongside your image price in the basket.

5. Once you have found all of the images you need and are ready to buy them, click the icon in your basket that says "place order”.

6. Your personal details, as entered in your account membership form will be displayed. Please check that these details are correct and click on the “proceed” icon below.

7. Your personal information will then appear in bold text. You will need to click “proceed” one more time.

8. You will then be asked to enter your card details. Please do so and click “proceed” below.

9. Once you have completed your payment, you will be given two options. You can either:

a) download the images yourself. Click on the appropriate icon if you would like to do this.

b) Your images can be sent to you on a CD. If you would prefer this option then click on the icon for this.


If you are still feeling puzzled, then please feel free to contact a member of the APL team for further assistance.
