Photo Elargement

I took a great picture of my pals sports boat last week and as a gift I would like to get it blown up and mounted.

Can anyone advise a company specialising in the same ? As a point of interest it was snapped utilising 3.2 - 2048x1360.

Meme,

Jessops will do it if you take in a CD, they are cheap like the budgie too. I use Peak Imaging (www.peak-imaging.co.uk) for large prints and stuff and they provide excellent service. Not sure how big you will be able to go with that resolution, but just experiment!

Cheers

Tim

Wow!

Graeme,

Fantastic picture, may be another line of work?

We use www.klick.co.uk for all our digital picture, just open an account up-load your pictures and order your prints, within 2 days (normally) there sat on your door mat, as good as any “proper” photo.

We also use them to share pictures, you can send invitations out to different “albums”, the great thing is that they order and pay for what they want, doesn’t cost you a been. Did this for our wedding and saved a packet

Thanks for that Tim..........

.........however, having just put the phone down from them I feel utterly confussed - worse than when my financial advisor visits. I think they are a little too Professional for me - I'll have to chat with one of my marketing bods and see if they can shed some light on his advise. Don;t you just hate it what that happens ? Plus the bloke has just talked his way out of a a job
