Thought I'd do some wallpapering today with some help from the Rasterbator which allows you to blow images to huuuuge sizes by converting them into millions of small dots. So, 40 sheets of A4 later (10x4) and lots of money spent on ink, I have a half covered wall:  It's pretty farkin big, takes up the width of the wall between the door and wardrobe, but whilst I'm pretty pleased, it's not big enough so gonna try and find something else now as well! Orig photo is:  Taken by myself (before camera got nicked  ) of my housemate's bug at Caswell Bay |

hmm, now that's an idea!
at school there's a printer which can print on 1 meter wide paper.
And I still have a bare piece of wall left! ;D

we got a printer at work that prints onto vynil, does stuff HUGE as well.. so no need for dots... this is one of a picture I took on the phone blown up to be a chrimbo pressie for the OH  bear in mind the printer I think is like 2.4 metres wide and can run an endless roll of vynil |

Ive been doing this for a while now. Got this one...  plus a few others round the house just now. This really kills your injet carts. Your best bet is to do it on a laser printer - preferably someone elses! |
