No one is really sure what Thing does.....I'm not so sure he does either :p

Thing is in the printing business if I recall correctly.

[Craker]

I see, so Thing just does his own thing then. :p

[Ronbo]

Yeah pretty much...until Mrs. Thing steps into the picture (Pun intented...AH HAHAHAHAH I crack myself UP!! :D )

[Bax]

haha, geez what a thread.

I'm also looking at getting some prints done. I think I sent thing a PM a while back - I may have to send another.

How do his prices compare with Brilliant Prints?? Around 240 for an A3 framed is a bit steep? Or am I just new to this canvas thing.

I'm not sure what size people get them printed at, but personally I'd be looking at around A2.

Thing, PM sent.

You deserve a hand for that.

does anybody know what dpi you would you need to print on canvas?

[Sammi]

does anybody know what dpi you would you need to print on canvas?

Im assuming it would have to be 300dpi for large prints but hey i dont know...... THING!

[Briancd]

does anybody know what dpi you would you need to print on canvas?

My sister made some enquiries about canvas printing and was told that they print a 6 X 4 or A4 size image and then scan it using a high resolution scanner so that it can be printed at the required size. I imagine that if you scanned a 6 x 4 inch image @ 2400 you would have a resolution of 14400 x 9600 which when printed at 300 dpi would print out @ 48 x 32 inch. Sounds logical. Maybey Thing can enlighten us.

[AzzA]

yeah, each time i send a job away to a printer its 300dpi, just never experienced anything with canvas before...
its a good option

[Bax]

Where is thing these days? I haven't seen any of his posts for a while.

[thing]

LOL Iv'e just replied to Bax & Sammi's pm's 5 minutes ago and after doing so stumbled back over this thread. Somewhere here on the site are all the prices and details. I'll put it in a more obvious place for everyone over the weekend. Along with details of exactly what I do to clear things up (pardon the pun!)

[suemoo]

I am late to reply here, sorry!

I got a canvas on Friday from Brilliant Prints and it is wonderful

[Ronbo]

Hands down I think canvas is the way to go...:p

I have a few shots that I would like printed to go into my sanctum sanctorum...so this might be worth doing some research into a local printer.

[albatross]

Is it possible to get 'glossy canvasses', the ones I have seen have been a matt finish?
