I've got some pictures I've taken that I'd like to have printed on a canvas (20x20ish?) or poster photo. Where are some of the best places to have this done?

JW Photolabs on West Street or Southeastern Camera off Atlantic.

JW does really good work, but they are one of the more expensive shops. Southeastern does good work as well, they're just not set-up as well as JW.

Walgreens, Walmart and some grocers offer photo printing and canvas mounts, but I haven't been happy with prints from either of the Wals.

There's also online labs that do good work.http://www.adoramapix.com/ and http://www.mpix.com/
I'm not sure what their quality is like for large format stuff, though the consensus is they do really good work.

Just use Snapfish to print the picture out on matte paper. Buy cheap $5 canvas from somewhere like Hobby Lobby, paint it (or not), and mod podge that shit.

Did that for some old pictures as gifts for Christmas a few years ago and it turned out great. My dad didn't realize until later that I didn't have them made somewhere like Snapfish.



If you're not into that, I can recommend Snapfish for this - http://www1.snapfish.com/snapfish/fe/create-wall-panels - because I have 2 16x20's in my office I got from there right now but I can't speak to their canvas products. I love the photo panels though. The first photo panel I ordered was chipped in the corner so e-mailed to complain and they just sent me another one overnight.

Had a picture in my gallery I forgot about
