Hello, If, you log on to Amazon and search the Command Picture Hanging offerings they have a ton of products, complete kits and in the description it will tell you what weight they recommend for your project.Hope this helps, Brenda

The velcro side of the hanging strips is very strong, but unfortunately the glue side is not. I tried them with a 5 lb clock and the strips just fall off the wall because the glue isn't strong enough. Unfortunately I think you're stuck with a nail or something, or at least using some better clue to hang the hangers.

It seems there is nothing on offer that will hold a large frame up to 10 pounds. The highest weight ones that are available (according to 3M) hold up to 8 pounds. These are their "Sticky Nail Wire Back Hangers" which are designed to allow you to hold up a fairly solid frame. The large ones only support up to 4 lbs. Amazon sells the highest capacity ones here:Command Sticky Nail Wire-Back Hanger

Do a Amazon search on "Command Large Picture-Hanging Strips;" they are supposed to handle up to 16lbs. Also, you can always add more strips for extra security.

really?? I don't know of any at this moment.....the weight is the issue...not just the holder but also when it is filled...but in thinking you might try the 3m picture frame stick ons...they are two pieces that adhere to walls. They hold up to several pounds. I think you would have to make sure that the surface of your fridge is absolutely clean where the mounts would go...(alcohol)...its worth a try...

I have enjoyed the 18 x 140. It pretty well stays on my camera for inside pics. I use an 18 x 300 for outdoor use. Would recommend the 18 x 140.

Thank you for your message. Due to the large size of the item, it is very difficult to find any cheap frames at, say, a big box store. I would imagine that the greatest part of the quote from a custom framing place involves the glass or plexi-glass component. I have had no reports from any of our recent customers who have attempted to get the poster framed, so I am not able to offer much advice. All I can suggest is that you do a search online. If you enter a keyword such as "poster frame" and search the available dimensions you may luck out and find something in your price range. Keep in mind also that, when dealing with such a large item, you should always wait to frame it until after you have received it and have had an opportunity to take your own exact measurements. The dimensions can be slightly off from what is stated on Amazon. This way, you will know exactly the size you are dealing with and be able to get a frame that will fit the item properly. One other suggestion that may serve your purposes and your budget: Some places (like Kinkos, for example) may offer lamination services. Laminating the poster should be, I should think, MUCH cheaper than framing and still provide a means to protect the poster from damage for several years. The only drawback obviously is that the lamination does not come off if you should ever need the poster in its original state. However, with the lamination, you can still roll the poster up for storage and moving purposes and easily rehang it. Please let me know if I can answer any further questions. Thanks Matt Bananaroad

Yes one should be fine. I have two - side by side over 48" paintings and they do a splendid job. The one caveat would be that if the frames on your pictures are deep (i.e. extend out a ways from the wall) the top picture frame could block the actual picture on the bottom.

a 60mm I use for flowers and small insect pictures. It would be OK for paintings.

I have several heavy framed prints with glass that probably weigh 5 pounds hanging on these hooks. If I think it what I am hanging is too heavy I use two.

Don't know what the "best" is, but I use this, with 3M positionable mounting adhesive #568 (available on Amazon), to mount photo prints (inkjet) to foam-core and other similar mounts. Works great once you get the hang of it. (I don't put any sort of "laminate" over the mounted prints, however.)

I found this video helpful. It's for a 10x30, but the same principles apply. Good luck! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnvJeRXNsoM

They recommend 2mega pixil or better & crisp, clear photos....I have ordered several over the years, using various quality photos and they have all been truly beautiful ! You can make improvements within the site as you proceed through the design, darker backgrounds for lighter subjects etc., their product is simply gorgeous !

a class 10 card is ideal to take advantage of the high speed movie modes. An 8 GB card will store over 1000 photos, you can use that as a capacity gauge. I think the Extreme cards are overkill for this camera, so I'd $ave with an Ultra.

I would recommend you try the Corel Paintshop Pro X5 Suite. It's affordabe and easy to use. I' ve been using this for 2 years now and it helps me alot in my photo and video works. Good luck.

My black and white negatives were pretty big when converted. I used Windows photo manager (edit button gives you several options for improving your pictures) to compress the file size. Worked great for me!

Unless you are planning to print poster-size photos it is completely useless to go for more than 10MPix (it can still make sense with a limited optical zoom as it allows more "numerical zoom" that consists in cropping the photos to remove the areas surrounding the subject, but with a 20x zoom...). It is even worse than useless: the photos will take a lot more room in your hard drive (and they will also have more electronic noise).

If you can use the four 1.25" screws to secure the bar to a solid wall (it allows you to chose the positions of the screws based on where you have wood behind the dry wall) then it is very sturdy and can easily take 10-15 normally framed pictures, I hung two 20 pound (10kg) heavy pieces with no problem.

Currently holding a 10lb. framed painting. I would not display it on this easel if it were tipsy!
