Hi,

I'm looking to make a custom canvas print for a present for my friend's birthday, does anyone know of any cheap websites that provide such a service? Really don't have a clue where to start. Thanks!

Have you thought of buying canvas paper and doing it yourself? Only thing would be restricted with size if using on a home printer.

The traditional photo printers do them at outrageous prices - there's a seller on eBay that does them and has 4000ish +ve feedback search for 'thetimemanltd' either framed or just the canvas.

I had one done for a friend's birthday in June, courtesy of Tesco. Lots of options size wise - stretch it across a few panels, or just have the one panel. They could tell you automatically whether your image was good enough quality for a certain size. My friend was really pleased with the result. I was also rather pleased because the Tesco Direct discount coupons worked and brought the price down!

I think places like Photobox do them, too, but I've only ordered the one from Tesco.

I've emailed thetimeman, his feedback looks great. Says he can use one of my images works out about £22, seems cheap?
