    Great thanks guys!

    Ginger - Ive used snapfish for other things, maybe I should check them out.

    Has anyone else had canvas prints done anywhere else??

    My DH sells canvas prints through his photography studio. They are loads more expensive than retail outlets though. There is a difference in quality - but if you can't tell the difference then go for the cheaper one!

    i agree that the resolution of the photo will have a huge bearing on how it appears on your canvas. yes there will be a difference in quality from the exxy studios to the cheaper online ones - but the online ones (big w/snap fish) still look good - provided the quality of the photo is good

    LOL! Don't tell your DH you said that!

    Saw one at a friend's house, was a glamour shot of her pregnant. It looked so classy!

    PMSL, he knows how I feel. He even gives the same advice to people... Occasionally people we know (or who know people we know) think they should book him for their weddings, but they can't see why his photography is more expensive. He tells them that if they can't see why, they should book someone else
    What I mean is, you can get great quality photography with great quality canvasses from a professional studio if you haven't got a good enough quality photograph to do your own decent-looking canvas with.
    The other thing that looks great for enlargements are acrylic prints. They're a very different look to the canvas, but look brilliant.
