I'm after getting some of my snaps put onto canvas, I've searched the web and it seems a bit pricey. Does anyone know of a shop that will put digi images onto canvas for not a lot of money?

cheers

I've got one from these people waiting for me:
www.photobloc.com/

Cheapest place I found for the size I wanted (20x30) (and I did a lot of looking!!)...

Edit cos I'm a dipstick and pasted the wrong link!!

The image used as the rollover on the front page is very odd!! Why would you take a picture and have the back of your head showing like that??

I've just had my picture of the sky in Skye put onto canvas at photobox (www.photobox.com I think). Some discussion in this thread: www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/topic.asp?t=209855

Not sure they are the cheapest (Cost £60) but it looks great.

Try me !

I'm primarily an automotive photographer, and was fed up with the poor quality of most of the canvas prints I was getting from the high street, so invested in a state-of-the-art Epson 9600 large format printer.

I only use top quality Epson artist gloss canvas & Epson ultrachrome inks : the results are spectacular.

See my site www.fluid-images.co.uk & if anyone off here mentions this site when ordering I'll offer a further 10% off.

One of the very few websites that I've seen that use Flash amd use it well. Whole site is well designed yet remaining simple whilst still providing information about the business and services (so unlike most Flash sites which just try to be, well, flash!)

I should also have mentioned that all of my images are available from www.fluidimages.co.uk for free if printed to canvas. Most marques represented in the 'Classic Vehicles' section !
