Upload an image from your computer and choose how many sheets wide you would like your poster to be once printed
Once you're happy with your selection, you can download the PDF file containing your newly created images and print each one massively blown up, resulting in a huge pixel poster to stick on your wall ...
There's a ton more samples in their gallery: http://www.blockposters.com/gallery.aspx
Very cool indeed... I may have to give it a try! | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements. SIGN UP today and help support our community.

Thanks for sharing! | | | |

Has anyone messed with this yet?
I thought I'd give it a try, and the problem I'm running into is the margins. I can't seem to make it print a full borderless 8.5x11.
And to make matters worse, the margins are in a different spot on odd and even pages, making trimming a pain in the ass. | | | |

Man, does anyone know of any program that can print a single image across multiple pages, without having to slice it up into multple images?
Photoshop apparently doesn't do it, and neither does QImage....
Since I had already printed out the 40 pages with margins, I went ahead and manually trimmed each page and put it up on my daughters wall. A lot of work, but she absolutley loves it!!!
It's a little over 7 feet long. | | | |

Yes, this was made with the Block Posters site. But the Margins really gave me grief.
I probably won't do another one of these until I can find a way to do it with borderless 8.5 x 11's. | | | |

Just a little bit of a downer here... you do realize that if you do this with copyrighted material you are more than likely violating the copyright (if you don't own it). Just thought I'd mention that.

But, I won't tell if you don't.  | | | |

Besides, it's from a free downloadable wallpaper.
