    they look great. I did the surfin' sasquatch with a green mat....it looks awesome, if I do say so myself :lol: ....but the purple is pretty cool, too.

    Ah, ACL camper truck, that's in my list of "to frames" as well -- nicely done!

    Trying to figure out that inline image process ... like so?

    I ordered the frames and matting from http://www.americanframe.com for all but the PJ20 poster... that one I tried the matting and frame on my own. I think I'll stick with ordering from American Frame. Easy website, lots of color matting... and their double mat looks pretty okay in person. (Can't really tell from my pics).

    I think the Seattle Surfin' Squatch would have looked better with green, but I wanted to try to pull out the background volcano a bit... it's actually a really dark blue, my cell phone camera is just not so great :)

    Nice job! I've always been curious how the Sasquatch looked in blue. When I got it done, I choose red. Really like it though.

    That Star Wars theme and mat job are awesome...that's on the 'to purchase' list for sure.

    Your framing job would look great anywhere too.

    I think next on the list is the Detroit Vedder show with Chelios. Can't decide if it should have a black mat with thin red second mat, or red mat with a black, thin second mat.

    The only tough part I've found so far is picking red mats online is really difficult. Red, no matter how crisp your computer monitor is seems to always look different in person.

    altho I haven't done it, I think american frame will send you mat samples. agreed....red is tough....I had to do my dallas '98 a couple of times to get the right shade.
