Some of you may know I like to take pictures and now I finally want to print some out to put up, but I don't know where to go.

I have never done anything like this and have my photos hosted up on Deviant Art, but the prices are really high but I have NO clue if that's realistic or extremely expensive.

I was hoping you guys could give me some insight on where to shop at....

I don't mind paying a bit more for a better process, in fact, I want the best quality available without dishing out twice as much for 10% better quality (If you know what I mean, this shit isn't going to be hanging in a museum)

They would be 12.4MP photos so I think the 20x30 range is where they will be at (inches)

I'm also located in the United States in case you didn't know...

Here are a few I want done (for you guys to look at for fun)

Since I don't know Phoenix.. I can only suggest having a look at google maps for some direction. Otherwise, good luck

http://www.fotomoto.com/ is a site that allows you to sell your prints on your own site.

This is their pricing.

tbo I wouldn't do it online. If I'm not happy with the results I want to go to the photolab and get my money back.


I've used costco and had good results with enlargements.

I just figured online places would have a bigger operation with better stuff because they would get a lot more action than having a store...

Costco would make large prints well? I know Costco has that whole photo development but would they really be on par with other specialty companies that deal with art?

Maybe I'm just thinking a process like silver screening is way more complicated...

i've not used it (disclaimer up front). an engineer in my firm has. he has a 42"x20" mural in his office, that he took with a nikon d3x.
it's a picture of petroglyphs (so. utah) that are lifelike. i'm told they are life-sized.

My wife works for a large print format company called OSI here in Reno, Nevada. I'll send you a PM with some specific information about it. You can talk to her about pricing and probably Shipping & Handling since you live in Arizona.

Costco will do up to 20X30. Verify that they guarantee satisfaction before you order. I'm pretty sure they do.
