... 3 weeks to the day since they were shipped so it's not the sites fault, just our slow as hell mail service. :-/
The size of the box took me by surprise. I certainly can't complain about the packing. Inside were 2 tubes (for a 20x16 and a 36x12), 2 cardboard envelopes (for a bunch of 10x8s and a bunch of 5x4s), and a heck of a lot of polystyrene 'curls' - me and the dog will have fun with those later : ).
The important bit:
Quality ... outstanding.
I have never seen my work at 20x16 before, but Toasty came out as good, if not better than I had hoped for. The colour is perfect and it looks good close up, nevermind just from a distance.
The 36x12 I had printed of this is even better. Absolutely out of this world!
Colour ... vibrant.
The yellow on this and the blue on this almost leap off the print at you : )
Borders ... all perfectly even.
It looks like the borders have been cropped into, but as I had left extra space below the text this was not an issue. The prints are straight and the borders are the same size on each side where they're meant to be.
Will I order again, despite the long wait? Hell yeah! I need a 20x16 of Hotwired to sit alongside my toaster now : )
A big thanks to Drew who resolved the problems I had placing my order (I think I found a bug) very quickly, or at least he would have done if I hadn't gone to bed straight after placing it!
DPCPrints rocks.
Respect. |

I think mine were $16+ but that was on a large order with 2 tubes.
You can check the postage at any time by clicking 'checkout' - this doesn't commit you to the order.
I'd also like to re-iterate that the long wait for the shots was not the sites fault - it was shipped in under 24hrs. I think I was jinxed with this order and it just got lost on the way. |

Yes, they come as they appear on the prints site with a border & text. |

I ordered a print from DPCPrints, and though it is an awesome print, I was very disappointed that the photographer's name was not on it. I bought it as a gift for my mom, and am thinking about printing the photog's name under the photo when I mat and frame it. I wish everyone would sign their stuff. With only a few exceptions, the large majority of the artwork/photography in my home is by someone that I know, and all pieces are signed, or, as with some of the photography, has the name printed on it. I certainly prefer this.
BTW - Toasty just rocks! I love it.
