I did some large test prints at Myphotopipe. They are quite reasonable and they turned out quite well. I've got them off for framing right now. Here are 2 of the 3.

Oooh their prices on panoramics are excellent! I use ezprints for panos up to 12"xwhatever, but Myphotopipe has wider sizes for equally great prices.

Two were 16X24 and one was 16X20. They are being framed with 4" mats. These will be the first large ones hanging on my personal walls. I've done bigger prints, but they've been mounted on gatorfoam for display in trade show booths or at the dive shop. With no frame and mat, they actually look small, even at 20X30.

I print lots of 8x10's at home and have done some 13x19 shots on my Epson 2200, but I find the bigger I go on it, the more frustrating it gets. So I stick to 8x10 at home and send out for bigger.

nice work too, you'll enjoy the larger prints. now all you need is a monstrous house 'cause that's alll you'll want from now on.........(ask me how I know...)

try some 36x24 from perfectposters.com. it'll run under $30, and is printed on much, much heavier paper. major wow factor......i ordered 8 prints last Monday, got them yesterday. They can print up to 72" (!)

my only complaint about myphotopipe is they roll the photos to ship them. Mpix does not roll them, they ship them flat.
