poster photos - where to buy

[CBoysMomLovesDisney]

We just returned from our summer vacation. I took a few black & white photos of the kids by the beach. Using our olympus c7000 camera

I would like to order them in poster size, but not sure where to buy them. I plan to order 3 posters, not sure of the size but at least 16x20

I have used snapfish for other photos, which look good, but what about poster size. How about winkflash? Any other online recommendations?

I just ordered a 20X30 from Mpix.com. Should be here Monday or Tues. I got one done awhile ago at Kodak, and it looked great. Some Ritz/Wolf camera stores have the ability to print posters in an hour, I think they use Epson 7800 or 9800. I have not tried my local store, but I might try one just to see the results.

I use Clark Color Labs, nice work, reasonable pricing, fast turn around. Here is a link to their poster size pricing.

I have used mpix.com for several projects and have been extremely happy with their product. I haven't ordered a poster size photo, but would not hesitate to order one from them when/if I do.

I have had Wal-mart and Meijer both do poster size prints. Walmart had to send it away, but Meijer did it in about an hour. The prints were acceptable, but like I said, next time, I will use mpix.com.

I ordered a 16x24 print of Cinderella's castle about 3 months ago from Winkflash. It turned out fantastic!! I think it was roughly $10 +$3.99 S/H. I know they can do canvas and all of those "extras", but the print itself was perfect!

Some Ritz/Wolf Camera stores offer 1 hour poster printing. I did this for a project I needed immediately and it turned out really nicely. You can probably find it a little cheeper online but being able to see it an approve the results is nice.

What type of camera did you use to take the picture? Do you know if that makes a difference as to how the print comes out.

I use a Canon Digital Rebel XT. I would think as long as your picture is clear it would be okay. ??

I used winkflash to order a 24x36 of this photo for my daughters dorm bedroom. It is a collage of a ton of photos of her dog who died last year. It was an awesome quality and looks great framed and hanging on her wall. We'll be shipping it to Disney in two months as she'll be there for the College Program and 'needs' her Prissy photo.

I just received my order from Mpix.com today. 20X30 B&W of this image.

It is outstanding. I will use Mix for a long time now on my large prints.
The packaging could have help up to a tank. It was boxed flat, which is a huge plus, had padding and more cardboard covering the image. Acid free tape held the print in about 8 places. This puppy was going nowhere.
I highly recommend them.
With shipping it was $29.94, a bargain in my book.

I'm so glad you like your print. The picture is wonderful!!!! I have been really impressed with their packaging too. Everything is VERY secure.

How many megapixels your camera has, will determine how good it looks blown up too. More megapixels makes for a larger picture.

I have used Yorkphoto. From what I can tell York, Clark, and snapfish are all the same company. My pciture came put very nice.
