Has anyone here ever ordered from Fractureme.com

the place where they print your photo on glass?
If so, are you happy with the results?

I’m thinking about getting small prints done of my cats and dogs who have passed and making a memorial wall. The images I uploaded to their site look great but, at $20 a pop, I am nervous about the finished product. All the online reviews are overwhelmingly positive, which raises suspicion.

Any input or review from a verified real person (and fellow Dem, lol!) would be appreciated!

I got a couple of small prints from them and was very pleased with their work, I also use Printique (Adorama prints) and Canvas Discount, both of which I like very much.

I was unaware of Canvas Discount. Canvas prints may look better than glass ones for my little project, so that is another option I’ll check out more thoroughly.
Thanks, again!

to decorate our basement TV room's outside wall. Some 3M command strips and good to go along with being a whole lot less expensive than wallboard or paneling. I also have a series of canvas 12x12 inch size of the eclipse from a couple years ago.

From Adorama I had metal prints done for our bathrooms after remodeling them. At that point they had just introduced the hexagon format and had a good intro sale on them so I took advantage of the deal. Also had some larger metal (12x12&quot done for our living room to make an arrangement above the TV set there.

I am at this point kinda running out of wall space to hang prints, hence just getting a couple from the Fracture company. I like to have my own photos from vacations and such hanging in the house as opposed to ones that I have picked up in a store.

Canvas Discount does a good job, are inexpensive and fairly quick I really like them.

The company also prints on glazed tile and other surfaces. I used the tumbled marble print (about 24"x24&quot as the backsplash behind my cooktop. The company screwed up the first time and sent a sent printed on glazed tile. Since it was a custom order, they let me keep the glazed version and sent the tumbled marble version for no additional charge. Someday I will do a project with the glazed tiles, probably in a table top.

The company is: https://www.tileprinting.com/
