Usually use Peak Imaging for all my printing but their canvas prints are about twice the price of some other online options (£137 for a 30" x 24" versus around £60-80 but they are properly mounted on mdf). Anyone recommend one of the "budget" options? Looking to print a high quality image out of a DSLR at a reasonable size so average quality printing will probably be more obvious?
group on used to do one about once a fortnight
Ive just ordered a load for work from yourprint2canvas who have 3 for 2 on at the moment on all sizes. They were brilliant. Ordered thursday, delivered by courier midday friday for no charge. Cant say fairer than that?!
[url=www.canvasdezign.co.uk]Canvas Dezign[/url] The best value that you will find for a properly mounted canvas. The one I've got is great quality and the frame is proper. I.e. it can be tensioned as the canvas stretched and is made from proper wood. No MDF crap.
I use http://www.tradecanvasprint.co.uk for all my canvas prints.
Excellent quality, loads of options and next day delivery.
I've curently got a 60"*40" version of this;

On my living wall from them which is lovely, perfect edges and the little touches like the hanger and soft feet are great.
I've used [url= http://www.printitoncanvas.co.uk/ ]http://www.printitoncanvas.co.uk/[/url] several times now. Excellent quality and service.
according to their website, they appear to have 20% off for an easter sale today 😉

groupon and wowcher are always offering cut price canvas prints. i want to take em up on one, but am struggling to find a decent resolution pic to give em.
id like the clash 'london calling' pic done as a canvas, but all the pics on the net are crap resolution. any ideas? can you buy it anywhere?
thanks (and sorry for slight hijack) 🙂
I use dscl and have had great results. Just send them the jpeg and what size and medium you want it printing on

I can thoroughly recommend that you don't use [url= http://www.you-frame.com/ ]http://www.you-frame.com/[/url], the product is OK for what I paid on a groupon, but it took around 3 months to arrive!
Just ordered a 140 x 70cm acrylic print of a panoramic from [url= http://www.posterxxl.co.uk/ ]http://www.posterxxl.co.uk/[/url], waiting delivery. They are a german firm. Noticed they were on groupon this week but only for canvas, not acrylic. Also, there is a 15% off voucher code and 25% quidco.
Just waiting to see what the quality is like when it arrives.
Snapmad canvas prints are amazing for the money.

I've used www.digitalcanvasprint.co.uk for very large prints and they seem good value.
What file types and sizes are you guys using with these firms?
A lot of 'online' firms seem to limit to jpg and small, less than say 50MB file sizes.
My buddy got some done at costco. The original photos were taken on his iphone.
I could not believe it ! They were brilliantly crisp
Where as i had some done at snapmad taken on my fuji s 5700 bridge and they were super sharp on screen with great definition and sharp colours and i was a bit disapointed when i recieved back a blurry mess with no definition and incredibly washed out tbh. And id uploaded the original file from the camera taken in super fine. Should have been good for printing to a huge size. Mines prints were certainly smaller than my mates from costco.
Have thought about getting a couple of prints done for hanging on the staircase, I have a decent DSLR but have always wondered what kind of image quality do the printers need (no saying my pics are crap or owt!) but do they need a raw/fine image?

Jpegs are the norm. Canvas is very forgiving. If it looks OK on screen it'll be fine, regardless of size (the bigger the print the bigger the viewing distance).
