    For as much as I dislike the color of that poster- it looks great how you have it framed. Excellent job!

    Interesting choice. Did you get one of those kits to do this? Or was this professionally done? Just curious.

    I just got my first poster and I'm gonna go the frame w/ the ticket stub. I don't want to laminate because you can't undo it.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    Bump. What did it cost all you guys to do this?

    never ever laminate anything - PARTICULARLY a ticket. Many TM ticket printing is done with a thermal printer - so if you laminate it - it will turn ALL BLACK.
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)

  • Has anyone from Canada (more specifically Southern Ontario) ordered frames from americanframe.com? I'm curious about the cost of the shipping - the website just says for international orders they us USPS International Priority, and I'm assuming it's based on the weight.

    Thanks...

    Pretty nice. I can't believe that you made Toronto 1 look decent. I'm a gonna have to steal your grey matte idea for that one. I'm thinking a teal or blue matte for Toronto 2, although your white one turned out nice too.

    I left it up to the guy at the store...since he's the professional ;)
    He called me in the other day to "ok" everything and when i saw them, i fell in love with what he'd chosen.

    It's a matte...the coloured piece around the poster. There's just a cutout for the ticket :)

    Thanks, I really can't take credit for it. All I do is drop the prints off at my framer's, and he does all the work. He is a little slow, but he hasn't let me down yet.

    On average how much are you spending per framing? Over Christmas break I had an autographed 16x20 picture framed for my dad and it was about $250 to get done, yikes. One of those FastFrame joints, just wondering if theres any better pro framing places, other than Michael's

    That frame job was $115, and that's about the average price I'm paying per print. Acid free linen mat, uv glass, all the archival type quality materials. In the past 18 months I've had about 12 items framed. He gives me a huge discount on his work because I bring in so much stuff, and I let him work at his own pace. If he's busy with other stuff I don't pressure him. I also give him total control over what the frame job looks like. I don't ask him to make it match my couch or anything like that, which gives him the ability to pull out colors from the prints with the frames and mats. He knows to use archival materials on everything he does for me, because that's the only thing I'm really anal about.

    I would suggest finding a "mom and pop" store, talk to them about how many you want done, and see if they'll give you a discount. Most of the time, if they know you're going to be consistently bringing items in, they'll hook you up.

    Has anyone done the ticket stub thing with a frame from americanframe? I want to frame my boston one with the ticket stub but can't justify dropping that kind of coin to get it done professionally. Did anyone just cut the matting, or just position it between the matting and the glass?

    Assuming that most A.C. Moore stores run the same specials each week, here's a tip. I was able to get an 18" x 24" (nice) wood picture frame for my Camden I, back it with a big sheet of black acid-free paper instead of matting it ... for around $12.

    He is alive but feels absolutely nothing.
    So is he?
    When he was six he believed that the moon overhead followed him.
    By nine he had deciphered the illusion trading magic for fact.
    No tradebacks...
    So this is what it's like to be an adult
    If he only knew now what he knew then...
