My grandson is turning 21 this month and I want to have a canvas print (16 x 20) made of one of his favorite photos. Never had this done before and I would appreciate any recommendation's UH members would have concerning what printer service to use.

I have used Canvas On Demand several times and they do a great job. http://www.canvasondemand.com/?gclid=CPiG7NWI1rQCFYxaMgodbEIAoQ

I just received two 16x20 canvas' from Costco and am very pleased. And while the cost was very low (around $35.00),the quality and service was top notch. I should mention that I investigated other companies but their prices were at least $15 to $20 higher per picture. Also,Costco's software is excellent as is their tech support. I give Costco 5 stars . Www.Costco.com

For the value and quality, Costco has done right with me.

Costco does good work, you have someone to talk to eyeball to eyeball and they stand behind their work-

We don't have a costco in our area. We do have a very nice photography place that sells all kinds of equipment, with a photography studio attached. You might want to check with your local camera shop. Some will provide you with a plethora of ideas.

I am not sure what Costco offers, but there are a multitude of different ways to mount photos, and many kinds of canvas mounts. Our store has a book full of mounting samples to choose from. One is only limited by his pocketbook. So, there are a lot of choices out there.

If you have a friend with a photo printer, they sell canvasses that you can print yourself.

Go to your local Walgreen drug store, most of them do respectable work at a very reasonable prce.

I use Professional Photographic Services (PPS) in Wilkes-Barre, PA. They do great work.

Rather than a drug-store like Walgrens, I prefer to go to a place where "photography" is their only business.

I'm curious then, do you buy your hair care products at a salon, your facial care products at a dermatologist, your clothes at a clothing only store, and on and on? Personally I like Costco for the convenience and their professionalism.
