Does anyone know if the picture of Jimmy with wings was ever turned into a poster? If not how would I go about making one?

Good one Lusty.

If you can get a jpeg file of it take it to a Kodak photo lab that prints on an A1 or A2 size plotter.

They should be able to help.

Otherwise your local printer might be able to do it for you as they have industrial tpye equipment.

The jpeg file i have of that picture is very tiny and when I inlarge it on the computer it becomes distorted. How do I over come this problem. Or is there a site that would have that picture in a bigger size. I think the pic I have was a picture of a picture. Thanks for your help ;)

You aren't going to get a good resolution print with a small Jpeg file like that, which is probably at most 100dpi. As you enlarge it the pixels are just going to get larger giving a blurry pixelated look. If you really want a nice print you'd have to find someone with a high resolution Tiff or EPS file. Finding one online is next to impossible because Tiff and EPS files in print resolution of about 300 dpi don't work well on the web. A local printer should be able to do something for you as they have loads of image editing software and most likely and inkjet poster proofer for doing one off prints, just don't be surprised if they tell you there isn't much they can do for you and act a bit annoyed, we are so use to dealing with people who don't understand what it takes to print quality images.

Thanks LadyRaven. That was my concern, I tried it once from a negitive and had the same problem. I might have to stick to a 11x15 or something of that size. I wont be happy though until I get a poster size.
