Just incase anybody wants some fairly cheap canvasses (Cheap IMO, experts?).

Also, first time using Groupon, so hopefully what I've posted is relevant to everybody and not just my city or whatever!

Sounds good, However how do I select the larger image? It only comes up with the option to buy the little one smile

Sorry I was away playing football.

Hmm it was coming up with the larger one earlier today, I reckon they might have sold out of that one unfortunately.

I have just received a 40x30" canvas from YouFrame, ordered during a previous Groupon promotion.

It arrived a little late, but I am very impressed with the result.
The canvas was delivered rolled with aluminium frame. Assembly only took a few minutes.

That's good to hear! I ordered two of the smaller ones just as a tester, as I don't really feel anything I've taken so far is worthy of going on a wall laugh

snapmad.com do canvas prints for around £20 all year round smile
I'm very happy with my 24" x 16" prints, which took about 3-4 days to arrive smile

(24 x 16 matched the 1.5-1 aspect of the camera - others are available for the same price)

I hope YouFrame have now got their act together. Took them nearly TWO MONTHS to deliver mine.

I could have painted it in bloody oils quicker!

Take my word for it, you get what you pay for in this market.

We sell loads of canvases for the consumer and corporate market and the money is not necessarily in the print, but the preparation, colour matching and type/cost of frame.

I can tell you with insider knowledge cheap canvas producers are cheap for a very good reason.

You pays your money and makes your choice.

Can you recommend a decent place to get them printed?

Call me Tuesday and I'll look after you. (I'm on Holiday currently)

We're not the cheapest, but you will not find a better final product that will last years.

Pm me and we'll go from there if you would like to.

Despite waiting an excessively long time with several emails going unanswered I was very impressed with the YouFrame product. Aluminium locking frame and good thickness of canvas with easy assembly.

For the price I could be tempted to buy another one..........

Just ordered one. I appreciate the quality may not be 100%, but for the kids room I'm not going to be that fussy! I use fluid images for things that matter smile

I've had a look on the site but it doesn't show it (was a very quick 2 minute look) so apologies if it is on there but are you able to do split canvas prints?

Absolutely.

The site is unfortunately a couple of years old and doesn't reflect all of the products we supply.

My work email is Martin@positiveimages.co.uk

Drop me a line with sizes and I'll send over a quote.

Thanks.

Sorry for the delay in replying Martin but I'd forgotten to check back in this thread! I'll be in touch next week as I need to have a chat with my wife over sizes/pictures, etc.. and we're not really going to get a chance to do that this week.
