Poster size photo prints are photo enlargements that vary in size from 11x14, 16x20, 20x30 to 24x36. Printed on professional-grade photographic paper by commercial photo lab equipment, these prints have superb colors and sharp whites and surpass in quality anything you could print yourself at home.
You can enlarge just one special photo, or create a photo collage poster with up to 30 photos for a great keepsake.
Pricing is reasonable to the point of being ridiculous!
For only $25, you can order the largest size poster print collaged with several photos!
Our most recent collage poster was of a ski vacation. I created it in literally minutes using Shutterfly Studio (free software downloaded to my PC), and placed my order at the same time as a free shipping promotion.
With collage posters, you can add text to your creations and select from a variety of backgrounds and layouts. For single prints, enlarge them to poster size suitable for framing, or create a canvas print, which comes ready to hang.
Here are some ideas for poster prints:
Vacation Memories - Create a collage of photos from your summer vacation, trip to Hawaii, Disneyland, or camping in the Rockies.
Baby's First Year - A stunning keepsake for the grandparents or yourself, compile images of your baby's first year in a large format collage poster.
Sports Star Certificates - A collage poster for each one of your little leaguers or soccer stars at the end of the season is a great gift.
50th Wedding Anniversary - Mix vintage photos and recent photos to show the history of a couple's life together. A wonderful memento.
Series of Pet Portraits - Have some loveable four-legged friends in the family? Create a gallery or series of pet portraits.
Compare poster print products from Shutterfly and Kodak Gallery.
For more than 30 pictures in your collage, or for a truly personalized collage layout, use Shutterfly Studio, Photoshop Elements, or other photo editing package.
Use the photo editing tools to create your collage, and save as a JPEG file. Then upload the file to Shutterfly or other photo print service as usual.
