Good place to get photos blown up onto canvas

Hi GD

I bought a few pics following an event and the file sizes are huge (17mb) so I guess they'll blow up nicely onto canvas, which is something I've never had done and would like to do.

Any recommendations on where to get a good job done at a reasonable price?

That's great thanks folks there's some great deals to be had with their special offers.

Having looked on these sites I'm not so sure about getting canvas now. What's the pros and cons of these different materials and which one is considered to be the best bang for your buck?

I'll be hanging them on Command strips so weight is my main consideration, a number of people say the acrylic blocks are good but are they much heavier than a canvas or foam?

So if foam looks cheap and acrylic is freestanding, canvas it is then!

@rpstewart thanks for the heads up on groupon deals on your perfect canvas, just bought a few

No, they do an acrylic to hang on the wall... my link above... https://www.my-picture.co.uk/wall-decor/acrylic-photo-prints.jsf

I imagine it's a much thinner layer of acrylic than the freestanding blocks which <gets out measuring tape> are 2.5cm thick.

Ah, there you go, on that linked page...
