Do you know someone who gets you good deals on printing also? Any idea how much I would be looking at to get a custom poster printed?

Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Heres the best part...Ready...COSTCO.com. They print anything any size anytime all the time and they ship it to your house for CHEAP!. Check them out. All you have to do is upload the file and select what you want. You can even have some of them the same day, just select the nearest costco and pick it up.

TriGem... $10 for a 20x30 poster... Am I reading that correctly? That's a hell of a deal. For Costco members only I assume? For that price I might start getting funny posters of me as gag gifts... lol

Do you think a 6mp Canon will give a decent poster?

6mp should be just fine. The lowest I have every tried was an 8mp and it truned out great. I don't think you will haven any problems.

I was thinking about making t-shirts of my car just to wear to the gym. Everything at those prices are so tempting.

I actually think you can still place an order without being a costco memeber. I know other departments of their online store charge an additional % for non members. Not sure how much more though.

Nice. Any idea what font you used on your poster? I think i'm going to get a good shot of my car and make it look like an official Porsche poster like yours but have it say "Nurburgring sold separately."

Not sure about the font. I know its the same exact one that Porsche uses on their posters. My friend did all the work on it. I can find out if you like.

If you can find out it would help me out. It looks like the correct font and I want mine to look as professional as possible.
