When I joined Zazzle, the first thing I tried to do was order a nice framed print of one of my favorite photographs of the Canadian Rockies. I knew that Zazzle has the best printing quality, 7 media/paper options, and tons of great framing choices. But gosh if I got stuck and couldn’t figure out how to create and order my print with our 6 step print design wizard. I actually had to ask for help from another Zazzler. Fast forward to today…
Now, creating an amazing print, poster, or canvas for your wall couldn’t be easier! With our new print design tool, it’s as simple as uploading a great image and choosing the media — 7 choices including card-stock, posters, fine-art prints (gloss or matte) and canvas!
Create a poster, fine-art print, or canvas now!
We’ll suggest the recommended max size for the image(s) you’ve uploaded to print crisply. But you can choose whatever size you want from a small portfolio print (less than 11×17) all the way up to 52×78. Yup, we call our largest sizes “colossal” - over 4-feet x 6.5 feet. On the print tool you can type in any size you want, or just click “Auto Size” to get the recommended max size at any time.
And on top of that, it’s now really easy to add as many images as you want (idea: create an awesome collage!) as well as borders and text on your print.
Check out our handy guide to the new UI:
…and have fun creating your prints!

Hi Ashley-
All of the choices are poster material or even better. Our basic poster paper is just what you are looking for. To get something even better, you can upgrade to our silver gloss or gold matte papers which are even thicker and the print is truly outstanding.
You can read more about our papers here: http://zazzle.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/zazzle.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=181

Matte Canvas “UV” or Gloss Canvas “UV” — Is the quality of “UV” anything like a “gilcee” print ??
