[What is the typical photo size do you hang on your wall(s)

around the house clusters of 8x10 matted to 11x14 look reasonable. However, I am also a fan of the printing school that believes in the "bigger is better" adage. For the couple of photos I hang in the office I favor prints around 16-20 inches on the long size. That's when the price that MPIX charges is only the start!

Count your blessings, George. Where I'm at a typical price for an 8.5x11 is, get this ...~$20.0 Without matting! That's why I use MPix (also their paper).

I rarely print lately opting to farm it out. As long as I have my profiles right, online labs are the way to go for me. If I need a quick proof I will print here but normally I go with a place called ProLab Express in Michigan.
