    it is a nice looking poster. I know the mystery tubes were disappointing for this one, but still looks sharp to me.

    Yeah when I started framing them me and my framer worked out a couple standard sizes. Then we just as just the mats accordingly. This way all the frames can line up. I am a little OCD about that kind of thing :D

    Wish I'd thought about that a long time ago! The best grouping I have is of my comic commissions... Not the best photo due to the time of day and not sure if this picture will post here (from Facebook), but let's see...

    Think I already posted some pics of these framed, but not yet hung up. Just got them up this past weekend.

    I love this too... I have done something very similar in my stairwell, but it is really dark in there... figuring out a better way to light it will be my next mini-home-improvement project, I think...
    I believe I'm within my rights here to say, "well-hung." :)

    I finally purchased my Holy Grail poster from another member here and just got it back from the framers today.. Words cannot express how much better it looks in person and how pumped I am to finally have the poster I have wanted for years :)

    And congrats on this!! I have my copy of this framed that I got at the show... really wish I'd held out for the sig version - that's gold, right? Looks wonderful! And... double-matted? Really looks good! *thumbs up*

    Just picked up my first framed posters from Michael's, pretty happy with the job they've done. This could become an expensive obsession!

    All very nice, though I find Michaels to be insanely expensive when it comes to getting anything framed and/or matted. If not for a 40% off coupon, the cost of just a double-mat job for a Ray Lewis collage I put together (last game ticket and 2 pics I took) would have been nearly $80 - for the mats ONLY (I bought the frame separately somewhere else). I'd much, much rather buy the framing supplies from americanframe.com and put it together myself for way less than 1/2 the cost.

    There was a 60% discount offer at Michael's - it still cost a fortune. I will definitely be trying americaframe.com for the Isle of Wight poster which is next in line.

    Trust me, you won't be disappointed. And it shouldn't cost more than $75-85 shipped (depending on the matting you want) for a 3-foot long poster...

    After finding out about these prices I think I'm going to buy frames with the good glass and let my friend do it.

    Another vote for American Frame.com. I have done about 15 posters through them. Their prices are great and their kits are easy to put together. Takes about 15 minutes on average.

    I've done about 15-20 as well, but mine definitely take longer, usually 30-45 mins. I always take my time getting the print lined up correctly on the back of the mat. Plus I use acid-free paper and tape over the corners & edges of the print to the mat to keep it from moving in the frame.

    Do you mind if I ask which type of frames you use? The "poster" frames look weird to me, and I'm not sure what the benefit is of wood vs. metal.

    Testing to see if I got this to work, hopefully it can be seen. The frame is a pewter color, it's coming across almost gold in the pic though.

    Just picked this up last week, now to find a good home for it on my wall.
