anybody in south. de have any suggestions for pic frames? i know the shops can be high, not familiar with the local art stuff here. some of the craft shops are cheaper, but can lack selection.

do you ever frame them up? I have seen a lot of people using the canvas over a wood frame look.

Sometimes you can go to Wal-Mart, and just get plain black half inch frames for like 5 bucks or so for an 8x10, not the greatest quality, but gets your pictures on the wall...

Target started selling some nice frames, prices can vary though. When I was in middle/high school I worked at AC Moore. It was nice taking advantage of the employee discount. They almost always have 40% coupons in local papers. just grab a couple of those and you can really cleanup for not a lot of dough.

you guys are great, i found a few on discount and may even stock pile some for the future. i may try and blow one up to poster size. it was high resol. so it looks like it may be good for the expansion.
