This is a retail site for over 500, 000 posters, prints, and photos, which offers the additional service of custom framing. You can browse images, refining your search categories until you find an image you want to purchase. A toolbar for broad choices, along the top left-hand side, includes fine art, photography, vintage, travel, movies, animals, and movie images. Selecting one of these options sends a drop-down menu down the left-hand side with more refined categories. You may also choose to browse visually, by thumbnails.

Once you have selected an image you can view it in “zoom” and the price, shipping time, dimensions, and viewing options (framed or laminated) appear on the right-hand side of the site. Below the image are designer recommendations for presentation: a steel frame, for example. You can then add it to the cart (the status of which can be checked by clicking on the cart icon in the upper right hand corner). Alternatively, you can choose to custom frame your selection, and can choose whether to trim the edges of the print, and so on. The cost of framing will be added to the cost of the print, and then you may progress to the “checkout” menu. You can fill out information including a shipping address and your email, where a receipt will be sent. You can pay by phone, credit card, or PayPal.

You will be offered discounts such as 20% off on the homepage, which can be attained by entering “Coupon” codes into the "Please Confirm Your Purchase" page. If you have a website, you are also encouraged to sign up for the affiliates program, which offers a high commission and other benefits for featuring links to Allposters products, tailored to the visitors the site receives. Businesses such as hotels and offices can browse for art to suit their establishments.

This site attracts a younger, affluent, college-educated audience.
