from CG Pro Prints and it is beautiful! I had ordered a canvas print from them before and was quite satisfied with it. The metal print I just received looks exactly the same in colour and density as what I see on my screen. I think they did a great job! Just want people to know when something goes right!

I've been wanting to try a metal print for a while, but am unable because of the cost. The ones I've seen are indeed vibrant.

We have done the same things several and been quite pleased with Shutterfly as well.

They are pricey. But once you've seen your work on metal, nothing else quite satisfies!

I didn't try them. I was looking for a particular size, and of all the companies I knew to try, CG PP were the only ones who did that size. I'll look into Shutterfly.

Oh, I guess I should have done that, huh!

If you're pleased, no need to change! None are cheap. We put ours into the shopping basket and wait for a sale. We've done a few Yellowstone books and numerous pics and canvas and been well satisfied.

Here's the print I had done on metal in a 12x18 size. Normally I get larger prints, but I was trying to keep the price down a bit. It was printed without the watermark, but I have signed it. It will be included in an exhibit at the Tubac Center of the Arts from August 10 to September 28. It came with a French cleat for hanging, but I'm required to add a wire for the gallery.

I did some books with Shutterfly some time back. They were OK, but I actually liked Blurb better. Sometimes I can't wait for a sale, 'tho' I'd like to. I have deadlines, usually.

How do you sign a metal print? My mind immediately said there could be smearing, but then again my mind sometimes lies to me.
