u2roolz Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Hey, have you tried to contact businesses/websites that can create posters from .jpg or .gif files? I mean, you have the image. All that you have to do is get that image onto a poster. I imagine you could save it onto a Flash Drive or email it to the businesses that do it and they could manipulate the image to make it bigger and print it onto nice poster material paper. Has anyone done this? I'm sure that it can be done. There used to be Prints Plus in malls across this country that took about any image and framed it, laminated it etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Taking a web-sized JPG and blowing it up to poster size often results in a highly pixelated image. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gopokes Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I've been meaning to buy the same poster. It was an awesome show. Anyways, here is a link to the artist's page with a "buy" button underneath the poster. Hope this works! www.garciadesign.ca/store_pages/store-gig-wilco-tulsa.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
borracho Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 let me rephrase what i wrote up earlier and deleted... i'd feel guilty about making a print from a computer image. but if there are no other ways to find this poster, am i still feeling guilty? probably... but anyway, the low-resolution would be a huge issue to blow it up that big. and i like the handcrafted screenprint anyway. yeah, i've already contacted the artist and he doesn't have any in stock, even though it says "buy" on that page.
