What services do you use to get big prints of space pictures? I haven't gotten any yet, but I plan on giving this place a try once I have the funds (or convince my parents to pay for it). I'd like to know what works for other people, though.

Me too! But I think if I got caught making a poster of Europa or something I'd probably have to start cleaning out my desk before it even finished the image. ohmy.gif


That's not to say I haven't been tempted though! Sooo tempted.... my worst fear though, would be having it jam halfway through ant not being able get it out of there! ...Oh...this?...no this is...the...for the new....promotional.....*runs away*

If you'd like a photographers advice :-) then the absolute best online digital printing site right now is www.Mpix.com.

If you want larger than 20x30 you will have to find a poster or large print specialist, I think I know of a couple but I'll have to double check.

If you're willing to wait a little longer and do it via mail, Dale Laboratories (www.dalelabs.com) is fantastic and they do thing such as professional Gatorboard mounting and the like, both digital and film. Those are the two places I use all the time, for both my work and when printing hi-res NASA photos.
