Recently saw that Sears is doing "Big Shots". It is a 10x30 full length photo, very neat. I would like to try some of these myself, but I can't find a photo site that prints this size. Any recommendations????

Smug mug will make 16x20 16x24 20x30 24x36

I haven't seen the 10x30, but that seams like it would be very long and skinny... But if you wanted it, you could duplicate the pic side by side, make a 20x30, and then cut it in half for the size your looking for.

Hope that is helpful

Looks cool to me!

You'd need to resize your image (and crop) to fit into a 10x30 frame. Not all that hard to do.

Do a search (Google or yahoo) for photo enlargements. There are many companies out there that do custom enlargements.

Here are 2 I found a while back when I was looking into enlargements. I haven't used either of them so I don't know about their service. But this will give you a starting point.

Here is a list from mpix.com. I have not used them but I got a sample pack from them this weekend, and there stuff looks great. A lot of the guys on a Nikon board use them, and have nothing but good things to say. I plan on using them, once I find a sutable picture to enlarge.

The sample I have came with that paper. I am very intregued about trying it out. Question, what type of prints do you have printed on that paper?

http://www.ezprints.com/ will do panorama prints, 6 inches or 12 inches tall I think, and however wide you send.

Costco does a 20x30 for $10(mail orders only, no pick up), and I think ELCO color also charges the same.

You can put two of the 10x30 side by side and trim them yourself, you have your 10x30 for $5.

, I had 8x10 pics of the senior girls from our local HS volleyball team printed on the metallic paper,although I later read the recommendation to not use it for people pics..LOL


everyone was asking where I had them printed, because of the different look the paper gave them..

I've also had some portraits printed on it,


since their prices are so low, I occasionally order one print on metallic, just to do a comparison, and for my own portfolio..
