    Obviously bootlegging posters and selling them is not cool, but I don't see the harm in creating your own print to hang up for yourself.

    Its true it wont be a complete set. I for one only like the original thing.

    But in OP's case I cant say its a bootleg if they just want one print to frame, hang and enjoy in the privacy of their own home.

    Seems like we have gone off the main road here a bit on this one. I dont think Bootlegging Posters was the plan here.

    I guess everyone has different definitions of fun.  Chasing down merch being sold wayyyy above face value is not fun.  At all.

    I agree that reproducing someone's artistic work without their permission is not cool; additionally, people reselling this same artwork way above face value is also slimey in my opinion. 

    Another rather obvious perspective is that many people/fans/10C members never want to see the day that Pearl Jam posters and other miscellaneous items start being mass produced due to the fact that this would reduce their materialistic sense of self-worth. What! I can no longer re-sell my $40 concert poster to a fellow fan for a ridiculous mark-up!  ..... I can't come to these boards to re-sell an artist's artwork, at prices that I would shame if the artists chose similar prices at their original point of sale!  Oh, the humanity ;)
    I'll buy your house for what it originally went for!

    Yep. No need to overreact and get into a heated discussion that wasn't intended.  I totally get where the OP is coming from. I've thought about doing this with the Pitt Missing Link quite a bit.  The highest resolution image I can find though would only be good enough for a 5x7.

    That's the issue. If you can get a decent image id suggest doing an 11x17 or 13x19

    I know from past experience the 18x24 just wont turn out the way you want.

    Haha! Be careful...some of are still underwater with our mortgages. I might make a 20K profit if I took you up on that offer.

    Maybe if he's making prints and listing them online for sale. But how can he get in any copyright trouble by making a print for himself at home ? Who is policing this?

    Perhaps with the express written consent of the commissioner's office, it will be ok?

    I do think that if you want to print one for the sole pupose of hanging it on your own wall and for your own pleasure, there is no need to advertise it etc.  Keep that shit to yourself.
