That's pretty awesome! I'm too cheap to buy one. So I decided to make it myself...

Cut the mountboard today, waiting for the frame to dry...

The Illinoisemakers

I have a question for all the poster people. I traded with another board member, vegas for santa barbara. I sent the poster in a UPS tube express mail. When it arrived it had been crushed and the vegas poster now has a big crease down the middle. Is there anything the other person can do to get the creases out? I've seen a picture, the poster isn't ruined, but the crease is visible. What can this person do if anything. I've heard using heat might be able to get the crease out, but that sounds a little risky. Any ideas I can pass on? thanks.

for the guy with the creased up vegas poster, try laying flat for about two weeks with heavy books on top, every 2 days, turn the poster on a different side. then bring poster to a local frame shop and ask them if they put it in there heat press on low heat for a few hours. may help flaten the poster and make the creases less noticable

I would just do this from the start. I wouldn't even bother trying to flatten it myself. And the framer shouldn't charge too much for it. It's not an expensive process.

Man there are some great looking posters on here folks.
I just got my San Diego back from the framer. I like the way it turned out. I am not sure if I should do my Los Angeles 2 next or my Oklahoma City '03.



What do you think?

Awesome:) Truly!
The ONLY thing I'd change, if it were mine, is making the bottom of the matting about an inch thicker, just so there's more border around the tickets. But I really like how you chose to overlap them and slightly skew them, instead of the standard symmetrical cutout.

I like what u did with the tickets... i was wondering what to do with 2 tickets.
The whole thing looks awsome!

I was also gonna try a matting job like nukeboot did (w/ his Randall's Island). But I can't find a match for the green/yellow, anyone know the exact color? Or know how to go about finding a match, my local shops don't have anything close...

Hey, it's worth a try.:)

def first one.

I'm off to get a poster framed tomorrow...something like this I think, with the 2 picks I have, 3 if I can get one off my friend. He doesn't even like PJ! He wouldn't have it if it wasn't for me, the fiend.

Black or white behind the picks? The black looks pretty distinctive. What do you think?

Or this could be good...

Hey, Ad, mind me asking what you paid to get that done? Or is that a do-it-yourself job like I do? If it's a DIYer, that's fantastic times THREE (one multiplier for each mat color)!

i had it done at aaron brothers. although the dudes behind the counters were complete morons,

i'm embarrassed to say how much i spent, it certainly wasn't cheap. i've done a couple and haven't really been happy with the job that i've done picking out colors for matting (mostly because i'm color blind).

here are a couple others that i've done recently.
