There isn’t a limited to the number of canvasses that can be purchased, the tool will only process one canvas at a time. So people who want more than one canvas need to complete multiple orders.

The information should be on the website today/tomorrow.

Any tips on how to make sure none of the outer edges of the photo get lost being stretched onto a frame? How much space should be left for the wrap?

Do you ship to the US? If so, how much extra?

Sorry, but it isn't obvious to me where you order and upload the files. It mentions your online tool, ookpix, but I can't find a link. The "Send us files" button doesn't seem to have the options I might expect.

I'm using Chrome, if that matters.

Strange, they should have updated the webpage but I think the program will be live Oct 1 or 2.

The tool lets you add a black edge so you cant lose any image on the sides!

US shipping - im not exactly sure how much they would charge

Hey...what about those big heads that we saw last year. Any chance of getting those made? Western Canadian made them last year for that big head photo night and then gave them away at night's end....

This is an awesome deal! I have been waiting to print some of my photos on canvas. I was looking at Costco online. Time to get some photos ready for this! Thanks for sharing!

Can anyone give me some insight on how important picture quality is when printing on a 16x24?

I'm not a great photographer, but have some decent pictures that taken on a point and shoot. Would it be a mistake to blow them up to that size?

Alternatively, if I were to find a picture I really like online, what size/quality should I be looking for if I want to print it to 16x24?

Maybe this has been answered already, but what's the story on delivery? Or we looking at local pick up?

Its pretty important to have a high quality image, if you don't you run the risk of it being pixelated or coming out looking poorly.

You can always blow up the image and see how it looks, its not the best benchmark but it'll give you a idea.

Anything that is 300 DPI - or a large file should scale up to print 16x24.

I don't know when they are doing that again - i'd assume we'll have more promo nights for the flames, you can order them I believe still but they come out to be a bit pricey.

BUMP

It appears the order system is up and running! Promo prices are in effect.

Local pickup or $15 Canada Post.

OK, I just ordered a couple of these since it is such a good deal. Please be aware that you can only do one at a time, so don't think you can add additional pictures and do a bunch at once. You have to do each one separately, which I didn't find out until I got to the payment section after repeatedly trying to add additional picture frames unsuccessfully.
