DIY Large Format Posters

Have a really large blank wall and a picture that you would love to fill it with – but don’t want to pay to print on a expensive large format printer? Blockposters to the rescue.

Upload an image from your computer and choose how many sheets wide you would like your poster to be once printed…Once you’re happy with your selection, you can download the PDF file containing your newly created images and print each one massively blown up [on your own printer], resulting in a huge pixel poster to stick on your wall.

Or if you’re cheap with your ink cartridges, there’s a free program called Rasterbator that turns your image into a bunch of dots similar to a comic book and then blows it up to wall-size proportions.

Kinda a rip off of Rasterbator.

Not really Rob…Rasterbator turns your picture into the dot art deal while this just blows it up so you can easily print it over multiple sheets. I’ve actually been looking for something like this.

I Rasterbated the other day. I used my school’s laser printer, of course.

You also have PosteRazor (http://posterazor.sourceforge.net/) which does the same, but using a local application (works on Mac, Linux, Windoze).
