$40 to have it done, eh? Where, out of curiousity? Will they do stuff like that for anybody?

Anyone can
You can get wide format printing at many places,
for example Kinkos,
(at least there here on the east coast.)
or if you have any friends that are in Marketing,drafting or Engineering they may have access to a wide format printer.

the only problem is they cannot do as good a job as a professional print shop.
I had a large poster over 50 megs and when it was ripped to the printer the postcript kept erroring out. so i took it to a professional Graphics shop and they were able to take my file make it work.

I'm getting mine done at a copier called Pip Printing. It's like Kinko's...only less evil.

I checked with a professional printer, like montitech just said, but they only did mass production; wouldn't do just a single one for a school project.

Print shops usually charge a high setup fee, and yes many refuse to do a run of only one or two. particularly if they do not have any ink plotters

I did this in the eighth grade. We had to make a cereal type, design a box-- complete with nutritional info!-- and film a commercial. And it all had to be Halloween themed. I don't remember what I got on it,t hough. It was four years ago...

There's your advertising gimmick right there. I love it!

That would also make for a good commercial, they can play Goo's seance from Infernal Slumber, and when Mac opens the door after Cheese says "I like cereal" they could show Cheese holding a box of the cereal.

I know this was posted, like, a year ago, but that, quite simply, is LEGENDARY.

Well, this has been brought back from the depths of burial...

Sparky · 11-08-2007, 09:52 AM

Well, it's pretty neat though.

And thanks Bluebottle F, it looks cool amongst all my "real" collectibles.

I'm planning on redoing this when I find a larger/better source image of the box but...

Some other things I'd like to fix on that too like the tiny text needs to be skewed a bit and stretched out to fill that box.

E: Forgot to mention, thank you BabyElephant for the "stays frightened" line.
