I recently went to art show. One of exhibit had huge panoramic canvas pictures of landscape photos (taken with a digital camera). Up close the pictures looked like oil paintings, but they were actually digital photos printed on this canvas as art. These pictures were nice & huge. There were panoramic style and were about 30" x 48" (2.5 ft x 4 ft). The canvas was attached to a wooden stretcher frame for direct hanging on a wall w/o need for a frame. I was wondering if anyone knew any more on this subject. Is there a special name for this process of digital photography onto canvas art? What kind of printer is used? Where do you get the pictures developed? What else is needed for this process? Starting costs? Where can I go for additional information on this subject?

The resulting huge, strapping men would be trained to compete in inter-plantation bare-knuckled boxing matches.
Or is this just one of those semi-pornographic myths taken up by writers like Kyle Onstott?

Something in world history that had a big affect on world history. Nothing on US history. Nothing too broad or vague. I wanted to do the rise and fall of Nazi Germany, but it was too broad.

THANKS!

We use our brain even when we sleep & it seems like the more we think, we are not going to be satisfied at all. Perhaps, if we have the chance not to use our brain, we will feel contented with what we have & will be able to appreciate the people & things around us. That way, we might know how to love (in all kinds of relationships) better & feel happier in our life. But am I correct?

I am astounded with the utter reversal of so many american values, like before we was a brave country that was known to the bad asses as one they admired for its integrity and they did not desire a fight with. Now we are despised as cowards with pre-emptive strike speaches trying to threaten other nations and go about like unchristian busy bodies telling everyone how they have to deal contracts for oil and securities with our industry. We are like a bad player and if we get to many enemies we shall have serious troubles when the underdogs arise with new sources of assistance since it is not by violence against Iraq households we shall make any freindship or deal any culture exchange with a whole lot of people all over this world. We are stupid, here is america our home and it is good, why are we about war everywhere and not healing our own social conflicts and bringing peace into our own lands.
