Posteriza
With digital cameras heading toward a standard of 8-10 megapixels in most of the mid-range line, printing photos at large sizes is no longer a luxury limited to the elite group purchasing top-of-the-line SLR digicams. Posteriza takes advantage of photo printing capabilities by turning your digital shots into larger-than-life posters and banners. The software will print several 4x6 or 8x10 sheets as tiles which you can combine to form a full-sized poster. It isn't quite as smooth as using Digital Camera Poster Creator, but Posteriza is free, which makes up for most potential shortcomings. Posteriza automatically creates margins for overlapping sheets to paste them together in larger sizes. A frame option prints a border around the outside edge of the image. If you don't have the budget for a photo printer capable of massive prints, Posteriza is an affordable solution. The software works with virtually any standard paper size. Another option is to create a set of JPG files which may be printed at any print facility to reduce your printing costs. Be sure to consider something like Ink Saver to avoid using more print resources than are absolutely necessary. Make sure you use the highest resolution setting on your digital camera for optimal results when enlarging any image for print. [Windows 2k/XP $0.00]
