I wanted to take just a moment and pass along what I think is a great deal to my fellow "hoggers" who might be interested. I recently ran across an internet company who can produce good quality canvas photo prints at a surprisingly low cost. When I first saw their information I had to order one just to see if the product could be any good at that price. I was very pleasantly surprised! I ended up ordering two more! I got 24" X 36" canvas already stretched on the frames for...get this....$63.00 ea. Below is the link...check this out if you do this type of work!

Thanks flyingCrown, I've been doing metallic but I wanted to try a couple of Canvas. Great price. Nations photo will do a Metallic 24X30 Framed between $85 and $105. Depending on the frame. Mahogany is $105. I just ordered one. I have the black framed ones already. Incredible quality. Shipping is free. (Orders over $50). Did you have to pay the shipping cost and what was it?
I just looked at the site, been thinking about prints on canvas myself. $12.90 shipping. I noticed they use HP Latex inks, water based. Is that normal, a good thing or a cheap way to go? Gary
"Pale"...Yes, I did have to pay shipping which, as I recall, was about $12. However, I feel that for the price being charged for the product, they probably can't give shipping and make any money. My second order, however, was for two prints, they shipped packed together, and shipping was free.
Hi Gary....very good question...my research indicated the HP inks are as durable as "solvent-based" inks and still provide minimal environmental impact. The ratings I found were for industrial applications with some ink varieties being partnered with 3M and under 3M's guarantee (the first of its kind). However, I couldn't determine whether the 3M-affiliated inks are the same as those used for these prints. The statistics used for the standard ink indicated them to be rated at 10 years for "industrial applications" in an indoor environment. I figure this would be considerably longer in consumer applications. Hope this is helpful.
