The ArcadeAid poster Many of you have expressed interest in this.
Image is 1684x2384. Printed at 72DPI that's almost 2'x3'.
Then again, this doesn't need 72DPI; that's the charm of it. Heck, I could probably print this at 30DPI and it still might look good, which would make it almost 5'x7'.
I'd drop it on CafePress, but that might be too pricy for most. I'd be willing to do it there for no markup.
Of course, before we go mass producing this thing, I would love the blessing of its creators (I know you're reading this, guys... ).
So what say you?

It's beautiful artwork, it should be a poster. I would be down for one depending on what the final price was.

Considering it's the property of Disney/42, I would wait until we know what's going on with it... If they plan to release something high quality and awesome with that image, I'd rather go for that. But until then, I'm sure there are loads of free solutions to paste it on whatever we want
ETA: since this is a new dedicated thread, the GIF (and lossless) version of the full sized image can be downloaded from

True, they might have plans on making a poster of this themselves. I would rather pay the artist who created it and buy the poster from him/her if Disney/42E would make that option available.
If whomever made this illustration is reading this, kudos, it's absolutely beautiful.
Also, for what it's worth, it can be blown up to 300 DPI (without quality loss) and falls just two inches short of a standard 24x36 poster. I know because I just did it myself.

Ditto a blessing form the owners would be best.

Obviously I won't be mass producing this without their consent, especially considering how we got the image in the first place (tearing it out of a Flash file).
I posted this because I have the odd feeling that they visit this forum... *wave!*

I don't want to be spamming multiple threads or anything. but anyone who wants to could upload to www.blockposters.com ...it will take that image, ask you how big you want it and what size paper you want it on, then return a multipage PDF that you can have printed anywhere you want (or at home if you've got a few extra ink cartridges lying around). Also, it's free.

Not to brag on multiple threads, but it looks damn nice at that resolution. Going to check into getting it framed this evening.
BTW, should we catalog any weirdness in the poster itself in this thread? (3-42 on tower, DBP and three dots on nearby buildings, etc.)

Nice! I'm going to have to call some printers and see what it will cost me. You guys are all making me jealous!

Did anybody notice the guy with the blacklight flashlight on the Flynn Lives poster a bit to the left of the running house (Homerun)?

Are there any other clickable sites on the poster that are NOT game points?
