    Ok, I need some help framing a poster. I'm trying to do this by myself, and I ordered a kit from americanframes.com which I just got. I noticed that it is missing framers corners or other hinging materials.....what exactly are these? Anybody do it yourself before and can help? Thanks.

    Hey guys. I've been meaning to add my posters to this for quite some time. I just got back AC Borgata from the framing guy and figured i'd put all of mine up. Still have a few I need to frame, but I need to find a damn job first.

    Just framed up one of these handbills, nothing fancy, it was a simple black frame (this is not the pic of it, but, it's kind of what it looks like in the frame), but, it's nice to have the art in my home ... at least until I can get my hands on the poster ...

    Here's two I just framed today. Nothing fancy, just some basic frames and mats from American Frame. These were my first tries with mats. I'm usually on a budget and just buy a basic frame that is close in size. I guess I'll get a few more mats for the other 3 or 4 PJ posters I have. I didn't know the mats were so cheap and they make a hell of a difference.

    The silver frame on the snake looks nice.

    I could never get over that other print alluding to W enough to hang it in my house, but, as long as you like it ... rock on!
