    Go for it ... it's almost impossible to fuck it up in any way that can't be easily fixed. You're not going to damage the poster unless you're outrageously careless and bend it or something.


    i never really got into these posters , i hear there are different ones ,some are small,others are bigger ....how do u know the diff?i may be asking a dumb ? but i dunno

    I spent $570 yesterday on getting my Gorge, Borgota, London, Ottawa and QCity Posters framed. I'll have them in 2 weeks, and they're gonna look awesome. I'll get some pictures posted when they're here.

    I had planned on only trying to spend $300, but the quality and deal I got, I had to take it.

    Damn - that's a lot of cash! Hope they look a whole lot better than my 96's and my Chicago 98. Mine are from americanframe.com done by myself and the most expensive was Amsterdam at $83. :)

    Just spent $113 at Michaels to get my Denver 03 framed. Will be ready in 4 weeks. :( At least I got the 50% off. :)
    No longer overwhelmed it seems so simple now.

    Thanks! - I still don't understand why people are going to Michaels and such and happy to get them framed at 50% off and still pay like $150 each. Mine were mostly $65-75 total including the frame, 2-3 mattes, uv plexiglass and acid free backing. I think that's the way to go for the cheaper posters. Now I might want to check into my Istanbul and Rome for a professional job. Still not sure yet.

    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    <---- Is in grad school and works full time. I don't have time to frame them myself. If I pay a bit more, it's worth the professional job and the time saved for me. I'll try American frame next time after I'm done with school in May and see how it goes.

    Thank you. That's just the beginning, I will be getting a couple 24x36" Daler Rowney presentation cases for the rest of my posters that won't fit in the one posted. I'm also going to be getting a couple framed a week, so I will keep updating my photobucket account. :)

    LOL- yea it's getting there. The 96 is the London, I still need the Ft. Lauderdale ( yea - that's what I need, another poster!). And it is not above the fish tank, so please don't worry, it is in a safe place. Many were worried about it's safety. I love the surfing series, I still need those also. Dammit, this is too addictive, I want them all!!
    I might have a pre-show party before they play Soldiers Field this summer. I will keep you all posted.
