Real quick question

Doctor Duffy · **Real quick question -** 11-22-2005, 11:45 PM

Kinda odd place to ask, but my dad doesn't know, so.....

At Kinkos (I've been inside one three times in my life, so bear with me) do they allow you to make poster-sized-posters? Like wall posters, for your room..?

Do you have to bring in your own paper?
What're the costs?
How do you bring the image (off the internet) to them?
Can they resize the image (its a Google image) until its poster sized without making it blurry?

I really dont know about the whole Kinkos ordeal, and thought I'd go to my best buddies to know... just real quick question, no brrf for discusion.

if the picture doesn't have large dimensions then it won't look good once it's blown up. It'll be too pixelized. Find some 5+MB pics and it should look decent

Ask a Kinkos employee, maybe oOo:

If the pic isn't at least 3000x3000 pixels or so it will look like crap. I made a bunch of 13x19 (smaller than real posters) and ever over 2000x2000 pixels came out pixelated.

Yeah, I went to the website already, didnt have anything there. And yeah I could've gone to Kinkos, but it was 11:00 when I posted this earlier, and I was just curious anywyas...

Its a picture of the movie "Bullitt" with Steve McQueen. You know, the whole San-Fran-and-its-Mustang movie. The thing is, I couldnt find a big image off the internet, so I was kinda stuck.

Biggest image I can find off Google, and it's still not that big:

they ruined a perfectly good Charger in that movie

Doctor Duffy · 11-23-2005, 03:12 PM

lol, there were two of them...

And I was reading in Motor Trend, when the Charger is about to hit the pumps it actually misses, but the crew detonates the explosives right in time to make it seem like nothing happened. But you can see the Charger keep going, if you look real closely between the building to the left and the pumps.
