    BTW, did you use non glare glass? In that case it's not exactly like mine. I found the non glare made the print less sharp.

    question: how much do these cost to frame? it would be sweet to get done, but it seems like the framing could cost more than the actual poster.. what is the average price you guys pay??

    Prices can vary greatly. Depends on what you want (i.e. multi mattes), what quality of frame, size of the print, etc.. For a good frame job with archival backing / matting / UV glass you should plan for anywhere from $200 to $400.

    Or you could encourage the wrath of the Poster Gods and ridicule of the Poster Freaks and go buy a $12.99 poster at K-Mart and do it yourself. But that would decrease the value of your print, and likely damage it after a few years up against that acidic paper and non protective glass.

    Peace,

    Wow 200-400$ for frame, that is a lot of money for one frame don't care how it looks.
    I have more than 30 posters framed so far all done by the profesional and payed around 50-80$ with all matting, double frame and glass job.

    come to Croatia for holiday and to make a frame job:D:D

    Actually, if you look close at the Ames Hawaii, there is a dolphin.

    Not a big fan of that frame job on the Klausen Hawaii.

    Mat colors seem pretty bland to me. Matching the colors of the poster isn't always the best route for mat colors.

    The goal is to notice the matting and frame last, not first.

    The blue and orange mats are linen mats, for from bland in person, very rich and bright like the colors in the print. The top mat extends the edge of the piece creating more depth that draws your attention to the piece itself, rather than some mat color that is not in the print.

    There is no "right way" to frame a piece of art, but there are guidelines for the best possible design. Framers are just there so one doesn't make a mistake, like put a bunch of colors in the matting that distract your eye from the focus.
