Help - C3 Photo Needed
I tied to get a photo that I have of my '71 (back in it's better condition younger years) "blown-up" to a 6'x4' print to put on my garage wall for motivation during the soon to start renovation. Unfortunately, the printer says the photo I have (3000x1800 pixels) doesn't have good enough resolution to be blown-up that big.
Is anybody out there willing to send me a digital photo of their 70-72 coupe (preferably a color similar to Mulsanne Blue) that I can use? The printer has requested a file size about 7200x4600 pixels, but anything bigger than the one I've already got should help...
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,
That is an extremely large photo, roughly 32-65 MB, which probably can't be sent through most email servers. Google limits gmail to 25 MB. I'm sure a 6'x4' photo will cost a small fortune as well!

Price for the large pic is about $140, but I had a coupon for one heck of a discount...

Hey Paul, if you know someone who uses Photoshop and has OnOne Genuine Fractals software they should be be able to do it for you. I can do it if you want but wouldn't be able to start it until Friday at the earliest. The file transfer could be done through something like Dropbox to save clogging up e-mail accounts.

'71 Vette Poster
Well, I finally got the poster back from the printer and it came out fairly well considering it was just a scan of an old photo. Here is the result:
And here it is mounted in the garage. Hopefully it'll keep me motivated!
Thanks to all who replied and helped...

Picture looks great! If you want motivation though, you might want to lose the comfy chair!
