OK we can dash of to the local photo lab/supermarket/chemist and get some prints bashed out ...or go online and do the same. But and believe me it's a big but , there is so much more the digital format can do. One of the biggest and most popular photography trends to come of the 'digital explosion' is getting a PHOTO CANVAS, printed of your own photography, great looking modern and classy. Unframed and simple they will fit into nearly all types of décor and look great. Good for your own house or as a special personalised gift.
The vast majority of canvas prints will be PVC coated canvas printed with solvent based inks. The ink can crack on the corners and the whole thing has a 'plasitcy' look and feel. some less 'bothered' printers call this 'giclee' printing ... its not. Giclee is an old fashioned and very smelly varnish they used to seal prints with 'back in the day'. There are some printers who have systems that are excellent. Don't get me wrong, but I'm afraid the vast amount of them are just just jumping on a hot trend to make some fast buck.
Ms. Howell wrestled mightily with the demon that is melasma and the battle is not over yet. Today we--she did a TCA peel; which is a mid-level peel to even out pigment problems as well as other age related infirmities. Don't make me do the interpreting thing again. We--she did a 20% solution which means nothing to me, but in layman's terms burned like Hell fire for about three minutes. I was worried since I still had to grocery shop afterward and didn't want to look like a freak.Then I remembered I was going to Wal-Mart, and I swear I've seen people that look sub-human there. Remember the bar scene in "The Empire Strikes Back"? I've seen some of those life forms shopping at our Wally World. No one took a second look at me while I snatched groceries off the shelves.
According to http://www.plasticsurgery.com/, your doctor may offer pain pills or sedatives during a session. I faced mine like a natural woman, no drugs or anything. Now the first one, I had a nerve block going on since I had just had Restylane injected into the cute, comma like indentations around my mouth. So I really didn't notice anything, and laughed through the whole thing. The rest of the series was performed while I was stone cold sober and it was distinctly uncomfortable. My pain threshold starts with paper cuts, you should clean them well and take a Vicodin. But big girls know that beauty is painful and expensive, just like dating younger men. But at least with IPL you look better when it's all over with.
The other major alternative is 'woven canvas' for transfer ink. This is uncoated canvas
ED Hardy Hats, printed with a water based, heat cured ink, very eco friendly and very, very hardwearing, it's also used for handbags and shoes so it's got to be hardwearing. This type of printing involves some pretty heavy weight machinery to 'cure' the prints into the textile, the big advantage of this is that the inks don't affect the feel of the textile
Adidas Women Shoes, keeping them soft and natural feeling. The overall effect is a much higher quality look to the print, its hard to put into words how classy dye transfer looks, so I won't. It just does OK?
Problem is how do you know that from a website? After all no one is going to put a rubbish print in their shop window are they?
...eeerr and its all about frames....too
Its all about the print as well
This is a tough one to work out online. Your best bet is to look for a quality or satisfaction guarantee, if they are prepared to put their money where their mouth is at least you have some recompense should the quality not be as you expect.
Don't Believe The Hype!
Its all about the canvas
So you've taken a great portrait of your Mum and got it printed onto a canvas, as a gift online.... Why is her face now purple? It didn't look like that on-screen!
Most large format digital inkjet printers are stable machines these days and looked after will offer years of reliable service. The fly in the ointment here is that the owner doesn't look after them or uses cheaper third party inks in them they will be most likely to spit out mile after mile of sub-standard, weak, colour shifted, streaky, PANTS. (and no one wants streaky pants do they....mark?)
If they use wedges in 2007 be careful.
I'll give you some facts and you decide...
You may read on some sites, about 'wedges' on the inside corners of the frame. Here's the heads up on that. If the printer is using poor quality canvas it will stretch over time and need wedges in the frames to re tighten it. This concept came from the days when cotton canvas was stretched and oil painted and the cotton took in moisture from the air and became slack.
"So I can go online, just get one and 'bingo, job done' right? After all
Prada Men Jeans, there are new sites popping up every day claiming to offer stuff better than the last site you checked out" ...
It struck me the other day that, once you've read some of my photo tips and are now taking fantastic photographs (ahem)... you might want to do something with them?
Best on a deep frame, (1.5 or 2 inches is the norm) this will keep it square and true. If a canvas print seems cheap it's a good chance it will be on a ½ inch frames and made of MDF or cheap knotty pine that could warp. Look for at least 1.5 inch deep, kiln dried soft wood .. preferably from managed plantations.
There are so many different types of canvas, it can get a little bit boring ... so does it make any difference? It depends what you want for your money, why is a Mercedes more expensive than a Kia?
