    Hi glowgirl,

    I had a photo printed onto canvas from a company on ebay and they were absolutely brilliant. I was worried about ordering it online from ebay and not sure what I'd get but its far better than I expected and I've said that in my feedback.

    The shop is onestop_artshop and I had a 20" x 34" done for £17.49 + £4.99 postage.

    Hope this helps!

    That is REALLY cheap!! Can I ask, did they wrap the photo around the frame or kind of stretch it if you see what I mean so the photo is distorted on the edges?

    It was very well made. It was was stretched over the edges and folded in the corners. The picture went around the edges too if thats any help?

    They send you a proof by email of the picture to make sure the colour and picture is correct before they produce it, and got to say it looked better than the photo they sent through too.

    PS - no the picture wasn't distorted at all. If you want to PM me I can send you the original photo and then a photo of the picture propped up on the headboard ready to be put up :)

    I won a photocanvas with photobox and I have to say I'm really impressed. They have various offers on so look out for those if you don't go with the ebay one.

    Thank you, its OK, I believe you :) Not happy with their customer service at the mo, contacted them yesterday with a couple of questions and they haven't bothered replying :( Maybe I am just impatient!

    oh thats a shame..... I emailed a couple of questions too and they replied the next day. The guy that the other poster pointed out on the otherhand still hasn't replied to an email I sent at the end of November!
    Even when I asked where the delivery was they responded the next day, I'd give them til the end of today before giving them up as a bad job :)
