Printing question

king of england

I have a customer that wants to have a photo enlarged and sectioned. The sections could be mounted individually a small distance apart, so when you stood close you could see the sections but as you move away it looks like one very large photo. Any help with a printer or company that might print this? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a perfect job for a custom fotoflot job.

Here's a dgrin thread on them.

You'd need to seperate the images so they could be printed. But I'm sure they would help you out in regards to dimentions etc..

Cheers,
-Jon

Hello, Jon was kind enough to make me aware of your query. I'm with sentiam, the company that makes fotoflōts and I thought I'd steer you to an example that might be helpful. Take a look at http://blogs.fotoflot.com/how-fotoflots-are-used/2008/01/13/hide-an-eyesore/ . It summarizes the experience of a SmugMugger using fotoflot to display an image in multiple sections, and points to her dgrin entry. It's a different application from yours, but it'll give you the idea.

Also, take a look at the flash player on the initial screen at www.fotoflot.com. The fifth image that is displayed shows an image of mine that has been split in two and displayed on two fotoflōt panels that are slightly separated.

Let me know if you have any questions about fotoflōts.
