Finding us

Directions to the St Albans office, as published.

The address below is the one the company published on its own site, kept here as part of the record rather than as a current location. Picdar as a software business no longer trades from it.

For anything to do with this publication — corrections, permissions, or an approach about the archive — use the contact page instead. Nothing is delivered to the address below, and letters sent to it will not reach an editor.

The page is kept for two reasons. The first is that other pages in the archive link to it, and an address that answers is better than a dead one. The second is that the location is itself part of the record: it says where a British picture management company sat during the years it was selling to national newspapers, broadcasters and government departments, and that detail disappears from the web faster than almost anything else about a defunct software business.

Contact details in the archived pages should be read the same way. Telephone numbers, fax numbers and email addresses printed on them belonged to a company that no longer trades, and several of those numbers have since been reissued to other subscribers. They are left in place because editing them would falsify the page, not because they are usable.

If you are trying to trace a licence, an invoice or a support agreement signed with the original company, this site cannot help with that directly. It holds the published record and nothing from behind it — no customer files, no contracts and no correspondence.
