Has anyone printed out digital photos on canvas???

[Twiglett]

Can I ask a couple of questions

We have a photo manipulation programme and have turned a photo into a paint effect .. have also given it a 'canvas' background to roughen it up but want to print in on actual canvas ... should we remove the background or not?

photobox seems expensive 60cm x 40cm is £99 plus £10 delivery .. anyone got a better place to do it? (that's for a stretched canvas

thanks all-knowing ones

am interested in answer too - will maybe surf and have a look.

Spooky! I was just reading about canvas prints in my magazine. They mention Snappy Snaps and their prices start from £33 for an A4 canvas. They go up to A1. Hope that helps.

Twiglett - best thing to do is email photobox and ask - they've been quite good in emails when I've asked them stuff. Not sure if there's anyone else better, but I would trust them to do it well as I've been impressed with their quality on other items (their calendars for one).

I have some photographs that were printed out on canvas, but I didn't see the originals. I would guess that you might want to get rid of the canvas effect before printing. Try searching online for cheaper places.

Twiglett, are you going to run the canvas through your own printer or have it done by the experts? Just curious as to whether a home printer would be able to accept canvas.

That is not cheap. True. I have used www.mcanvasprints.co.uk/ and they charge £62 for a 24"x16" stretched canvas print. Delivery is free. Highly recommended I would say as the quality is great...
