yikes I had that happen too and ended up leaving the picture in the frame.
Maybe you could try that undo stuff?
 
I would try dental floss or use a piece of tape runner backing. If you use tape runner you know the backing that it is stuck too. Slid that between the picture and the glass.
 
OMG I had the same exact problem with an 8x10 and tried the undo and the dental floss to no avail..... I ended up taking the pictue with glass stuck to it to Walgreens and putting it through the Kodak Picture Maker and making a duplicate because I could not think of anything else to do... That is soooo wierd I thought I was the only one with such a goofy problem......
I still have the stuck picture so if anyone can think of anything else I am willing to try it.
 
call your local frame store & see what they suggest - then let us know what you end up doing...
 
I called our local photo restoration shop they told me to soak it in luke warm water for 24-48 hours the gel losen and it will pull off. it wll not hurt the photo. Well I got it off and it is drying on my dining room table looks wrinlked right now I will let you know what it looks like dry. I did get one tear in it but if it dries good I think I can cut it oval and will be fine. thanks for all your concern. I Love this board!:wave:
 
Keep me posted as to how it drys and if it effects the color.... I will try anything!
 
Try freezing the picture - sometimes this works. Also, pictures usually get stuck due to moisture. Either there might have been some moisture left on the glass if you cleaned it before putting the picture in, or else it could have been sprayed with glass cleaner while the picture was in it and some got into the little cracks between the glass and the frame.
This happened to me before, too, and now I always just use a Windex wipe or paper towel with Windex sprayed on it to clean my pictures.
Good Luck!
 
Hey it dried fine and the color is good. Just let it sit and do not pick at it . I'm impressed
 
OK thanks for being the guine pig.... I will do mine tonight!
Thanks:)
