If you haven't seen, Court has posted links to a fantastic commemorative Buell Poster that you can download and print. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/17/ 524959.html?1261934288 Check it out if you haven't seen the original thread! | ||

Thanks all, I noticed that this morning, and downloaded. Very cool! | ||
| Buellinachinashop |
It really kicks ass. I'm having one of my vendors print me two. One for the Man Cave, one for the office. | ||

Yes it does! A big thank you to the creator!!! Is there anyone out there that could convert the PDF file to a JPEG? That would make it a lot easier to get a print from places like Snapfish, Shutterfly, Walgreens, Costco, etc. | ||
| Froggy |
JPEGs will reduce the quality. I will see if I can convert it into a TIFF file. | ||
| A_s_r |
Cool, thanks Froggy! | ||
| Buellinachinashop |
If it's a TIFF, be ready for a larger file than the pdf. .ZIP the PDF, that should make it a tad smaller (Message edited by buellinachinashop on January 05, 2010) | ||

It's my bandwidth, I don't care  | ||
| Froggy |
BCS, do you have a program for converting it? I don't think I got anything, I tried some stuff from Download.com, one worked good but put a watermark in it (I am not paying $50 for something I will use only once), and a 30 day demo one I tried ruined the color but no watermark. | ||
| A_s_r |
Froggy, I had about the same luck trying to convert the file with any freeware or trial programs. Thank you for trying  Hopefully someone out there has a professional program that wouldn't mind doing the conversion. | ||

Thanks Court and Froggy .. posters are great .. a high quality print is going up on the wall at the office. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
I'll convert it to a PNG file, with little to no loss when I get home, and post it up to my flickr account for everyone to download. The quality is outstanding BTW.  | ||

Hey Froggy - have you thought about making the poster link a sticky at either the top of each section, or at the top of badweb itself? Just for those users (like myself) who tend to frequent a certain set of boards, but not all.... | ||
| Froggy |
LINK TO THE POSTER IN JPEG FORMAT!!!! http://froggypwns.com/buellpdfs/Buell%20poster%20h igh%20res.jpg Rat, it will get a link somewhere | ||
| A_s_r |
Right on!!! Thanks Froggy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||

for what it's worth, i used the previous (non-high-res version) and printed it on a printer in our engineering section that they use for blueprint type plans and the 24" by whatever version was pretty good. not perfect, but not bad. So if you've got access to such a printer and have an understanding boss and print the high-res version you could save yourself $50 | ||

I compressed it using WIN ZIP, but it only reduced the PDF to about 12mb. | ||

Has anyone had one printed out at a Kinko's or whatnot and have some prices? I just read the post and am wondering what a couple of these are going to cost me. | ||
| A_s_r |
I am having the JPEG done at Costco, and it cost me $8.99 + tax for a 20 x 30 print. Snapfish,Shutterfly, and Walgreens are all in the $20 range. | ||
| Gentleman_jon |
cool beans! Thanks guys. | ||

I'm shopping around to see where to get mine printed. One poster in the original thread (http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/17/ 523773.html?1262805461) paid nearly $50 (!) to get a 24x36 printed at his local Staples. | ||
| Rkc00 |
Just go to Costco. That is where I had the 20x30 printed also. $8.99 + tax + shipping if you have it shipped to you. My local Costco does up to 20x30 in house and I have it in one hour. Mike Long Island, NY 09 XB12X Red/Black 09 1125CR Black/White 06 VRSCR Blue/Silver | ||

No costco near me in western NY... if we can't do a bulk order would anybody print an extra and ship it? | ||
| A_s_r |
Maybe try Walmart's photo center. I haven't looked into prices, but I have heard they are competitive with Costco. | ||
| Lastcyclone |
This biggest Walgreen's can safely do is 12x18 in .jpg format according to the ordering info. A view of a 4"x6" print for comparison This photo is not recommended for the sizes indicated. More info 11x14 ($9.99 ea.) 12x18 ($12.99 ea.) 16x20 ($13.99 ea.) 20x30 ($19.99 ea.) Enter quantity Now what would happen if I select a bigger size? Will Costco print from the .pdf? Anybody in the printing bussiness that wants to take up the project and maybe make a couple of bucks printing full res. copies and mailing them?
