Finally got this back from the framers today. I love it...what you guys think?

that is pretty fuckin' killer. Nice job... I like the way the print works with the purple... brings out the colours, but no overbearing...

good work.

Like many I have been collecting posters for years, but have just now got the itch to start framing them. I just picked up my first two from the frame shop this weekend, and dropped off two more in the process.





How did I do?

Hey man.....love the Hampton but not sure about the matte color on the whale...might just be because I have it framed differently but just keeping it real.

No worries, what color combos did you go with?

Did some rearranging on this wall.
Pay no attention to the actual frames (just cheap ones).

Yea, I thought trying to match the blue or purple would take away from the print, since those colors are so dominant. I wish I had gone with a black frame though.

Here are my first two framed prints. More to come once the Hoff runs his framing special.

Haven't had a chance to hang them yet, think they turned out alright. Bought the frames and borders from a framers and mounted the prints at home myself, £130 for all 3.

If anyone can tell me what code to use so I can post the images in the thread that would be great. I use Flickr by the way.

they were never sold by Ames. People who bought a sub got one. Not sure if they even do that anymore.

Agreed.... looks shockingly good for a temp frame... i'd keep it as is (unless you're unhappy with it.... I know how that goes!)

It would save me money...which I could spend on posters...
