Does anyone know, or can anyone recommend a service which allows you to send them a photo, which they then print off on glossy paper and then frame it for you?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Cheers.

if i were you i would get the glossy print in a standard size and just have a look around local shops for a frame you like.

Most photography shops will do this for you in my experience.

Thanks for the tips
I did search via google, but none offered what I wanted, which was basically a photo printed out on glossy paper, then framed in a black frame

Thanks
I was actually after a bigger frame
I ended up using a photo from the web and put it onto 6 coasters and 1 mousemat.
The image in question is the blue marble (Picture of the earth)

The mats are plastic with a glossy coat and look great, the mousemat isn't so great as it's only the fabric type mat, not the plasticy type you sometimes get, but still looks the business.

Should get matt or lustre prints if you're mounting under glass. gloss is too shiny otherwise.
