Hi all i have a problem and wondered if anyone could help. I have a habit just lately of cropping and editing my shots into really stupid sizes and then wonder why i have problems getting them printed. Someone said stay to normal sizes but i feel the way i take pictures and edit them id lose my fun in photography. So can anyone sugest a place that prints odd sizes for reasonable prices. I dont want to have to buy a printer and print myself as i dont get time to write this topic let alone print my pictures. Hope there is someone out there that can help. Plus if anyone knows a place i can get my odd size shots onto canvas.

there are possibilitys to get rid of this 'problem'. i use somtimes odd sizes too, but it is almost impossible to find a print service who can print those to a resonable price.
my solution is simple but effective: i add a frame who makes the endsize the way printers are acccepting..  then after the print i just cut of the frames i added to make the size and i have the picture just as i want it..

Hi, Johnny!
I was just saying what Bunny advised you . Besides, that way, you have with 2 choices: stay with the odd frame if you like the final result or just crop it as Bunny says!
On the other hand please have a look at a great online shop:

Hope you find your way!

I never print 'standard' formats, because I always crop in a way or another, and I use Pixum (www.pixum.com). You specify the heigth of your pic, and they automatically adjust the length. If you fall outside the specs (too panoramic), they adjust the height as well: i.e. you get the full width, but you have white top/bottom borders, because they reduce the size.
Prices are more than reasonable.

Johnny, I use the same organisation as ortho does, Pixum. I send them cropped images in various sizes and they always return perfect.
