This is a great idea and I just about have it finished for one of my favorite pictures. Dumb question – what is the character between “Kelby” and “Outer” – it looks like an arrow of some sort but I can’t seem to find it. I have seen other people use similar chevrons in their prints but I have no idea if that is part of a font family, etc. I like the way it separates the name out.

I did. Somewhere I found somebody that suggested EL-CO Color Labs: http://www.elcocolor.com/poster_special.htm

I went with 24″ x 30″ for $11.95 each. Ordering was easy, they shipped within 24 hours and arrived yesterday. I am impressed with the look and quality and will definitely use them again.

Did you choose a print place? I need to print 6 poster size prints, too – but I need it to be economical.

Love the posters – a great gallery feel. Speaking of posters, I have some that need to be printed ASAP (24″ x 36″). These are quite pricey though my normal lab (MPIX) and I have looked everywhere for other alternatives. These are zillions, but I have no idea about quality. Can anyone suggest a poster printer that you have had good success with?

Thank you.

Great entry Scott! I’ve visited the Outer Banks many times but have never found rusted boats like that… mind sharing what part of the outer banks they are in? No need for exact location… just generally to help narrow down my search!

Thanks in advance! love your Blog!

Great entry Scott but people would need to resize their landscape image first since you go by inches. Wouldn’t it work better to use percentage instead? I experimented in CS4 using percentage and came very close to your example.

Also, a portrait version would be something I think a lot of people would appreciate. I ended up making two versions, one for landscape and one for portrait. I think a third version, for square format images is something I’ll need to work on next.

Love the tip. Good to see that I’m not alone in spelling accommodation without the double “m”.
