All my 11x14's are vintage Cibachromes, one-of-kinds, so not exactly negotiable yet. You could get a current 20x24 Crystal Archive print
cheaper (and I mean a good one, on polyester rather than paper). But I don't know what you're trying to get at. Do you like something that
looks like a damn coffee table book cover that shows the saturation possibilities of current color neg systems, or something more subtle.
There are a limited number of these prints - not like the decades worth of Cibas I have stockpiled. Don't worry. I wouldn't skin you. But if you
give me any more trouble, I will be tempted to buy you an airline ticket to Singapore for a good caning!

Whatever you think is best in terms of image quality that shows your work, I don't need a big print, something at a reasonable price that you printed in the darkroom and not something you ordered from Dwayne's photo that is lambda printed, the fuji archive might be suspicious

Nice to see that your acrid humor is a bit more tolerable on this forum than on the other one at the moment. The whole point of Fuji Archive is that it's current, and since I've already called the bluffs of a few folks lately, it would pretty much set to rest any web nonsense about this being less than a potentially superb print media in an all-analog darkroom. Maybe there is something the cat sprayed on that I can sell affordably. I'll look. (Returning one wisecrack for another). You'd know more about Dwayne's than me, so I cannot comment on that.

When have you ever set the record straight for anyone? Now you're even making that up too? LOL

I have no idea if Drew is a good or mediocre photographer and, to be honest, I don't care. What I know is that your behaviour isn't appropriate.

It is when someone is spreading false made up information because they just make stuff up.

I'll stop but you have to realize how much BS is posted by drew, at least when I say something wrong I admit it, AND I actually show proof I've done or attempted or own the stuff I'm talking about.

I may be inappropriate but at least I'm not a complete liar.

I'll stop now but you'll understand eventually why I react the way I do.

All right all right, the best color negative is Velvia100 cross processed in C-41

Threads like this remind me of "What's the best oil to use?" on motorcycle forums. They are best viewed with something to drink and a good supply of popcorn.

What a coincidence, I just bought a 50 pound bag at a local restaurant supply store today...

Most popcorn is popped in motorcycle oil.
