alloverthetown Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 where's a good spot online to get this done? It's a photograph I need printed... never had shit printed on a canvas before. Who got the best pricing... if there's someone on here that does that shit, rather throw my business your way than some of these giants all over the web, nahhhh mean? Looking to go glossy and like 32x60 big... peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pet Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Glossy on canvas? Is it even possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 ^^Exactly what I thought. My aunt does this all the time, but she does it at home. I dunno if she has a special printer or something though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortFuse Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 kinkos and other places do shit like that. I find it rather tacky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alloverthetown Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 does it look like shit? I basically need a big print of something... you guys sugget i just go with glossy and just get it framed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortFuse Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 it doesnt look bad...I just think it tacky to have a canvas that isnt painted...call it the artist in me but it just looks cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alloverthetown Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 I feel you... it's a special request though.... I was thinking going with canvas for the longevity.... long story short... someone close passed, i have a great photo of something pertaining to close friend... his parents saw picture, and loved it, want to give it to them on a bigger scale....

jae999 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 www.myphotopipe.com this place will do what you want at a reasonable price. something you might want to think about is how good will it look when its blown up. was it shot with a digital cam? if so how many megapixels was it? was it shot on film? if it was shot with a low megapixel cam you'll see noise in the photo when its blown up that big. if it was shot on film at a decent ISO like 400 or lower than it'll look alright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alloverthetown Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 5MP on a decent camera, but I am going to go back and get shots at 10MP, with a professional camera, still digital of course... Tricky cause on sunny days the light fucks shit up at this spot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gooch Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 http://www.mpix.com/Products.aspx another tip, always make sure all things you get printed are sized at 300 DPI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
