Anyone know where i can bring digital pics and get them printed bigger than 8x10?

8x10 is max size walmart.com will do. was wondering if there was anywhere else (online or storefront) that will make larger enlargements

thanks

Call Staples perhaps?

Of course you know that most digital pics at larger than 8x10 will suck, but if you need it, call them.

yeah wal-mart does it.

but i wouldnt expect them to be very good. Unless you have a darn good camera.

what resolution do you think a camera would need to take pics in to be able to print larger than 8x10?

Any camera COULD have something made up into any size print. The issue is quality. If you are looking for decent (not perfect) quality in an 11x14 then the Canon EOS 10D would be good.

my current camera takes 1600x1200 shots at highest resolution. i've done 8x10's in the past and they look good.

just wondering if 16x12 would cut it for anything a little bigger.

i don't see any options on walmarts site for bigger than 8x10

1600x1200 produces good 8x10s?? LOL! Do you wear glasses?

You'd need at least 4-5mp to get good 8x10's, let alone larger ones......

well they look great to me. must be on the "cusp" of decent looking

i see now. walmart offers "photo posters" that are big....those look interesting

yeah i have a cannon A40 (2mp) and its fine for 5x7's. i have done a few 8x10's but you really have to watch what you are printing and where they are going to be hung (viewed)
