This desktop photo holder was perfect. It was very affordable. I had seen similar products on line, at the pricier, yuppie stores, for at least three times as much. This was well made, and solidly constructed. Easy to twist together and looks great!

I used this to display pictures at a birthday party. It worked perfectly! I now use it at our computer desk to display photos and a place to clip memos to. It is a sturdy, nice looking product that has a modern feel to it.

This item is great for holiday cards - especially since people often send flat photo cards that do not stand on their own to be displayed. I also liked that it did not require me to hang it on a door or wall - as I already have wall art and there is no space for it.

Timely arrival, in perfect condition, and easy to assemble. I made a display of our granddaughter's ballet photos, glass slippers, cards, etc. Get so many compliments!

I purchased this product for my husband as a gift for him to put on his desk at work and he loves it! This was a wonderful idea and now he has several pictures of us and our children for him to look at and brag about at work. What a great product!

I am very pleased with this product and company. I ordered two 12X18 frames. One broke during shipping. I emailed the company and had 2 replacements with in a week. No problems or questions asked. I will buy from them again when I comes to my framing needs. Thank you!!

The frame is beautiful. The quality was above and beyond what I had expected. The item arrived exactly when they stated it would. I will order from them again.

The two frames I recieved (Imperial Frame brand) were 12x18. They seemed nice enough, well made and solid. But after pulling back the little clips and removing the glass, the glass would not go back in. Now I'm not a clumsy hamfisted guy, and I tried carefully as I could to get it in. With barely a push, the glass from the first frame broke in a corner. Not wanting to make the mistake again with the second, I tried ever ever so delicately to push the glass back in. Not only did this one break even easier, but when trying to get the glass out, the shard CUT my poster. So not only am I out the thirty bucks from both frames, but it cut my 20 dollar poster. It has been a long time since I was so frustrated. Maybe others have better luck than I, but I would not recommend buying these frames.

Product was delivered with no problems, frames were packed with plenty of bubble wrap, pleased with product. Will purchase more in future.

I bought some original posters from a freelance artist while back. Wanting to frame them i went to several local stores. None had frames in the correct size. So, when i found these online, i was very excited. The design is nothing fancy, but it happened to match three other frames i had bought locally. They arrived in prime condition, and very quickly. 10 minutes later, both my original works were hanging on my wall. Definitely recommend seller and product. If i happen across more artwork, i'll buy from here again!

I have this made out of cardboard (like a postcard) and everyone thinks it's too funny!!! Even my super-conservative mother-in-law had to laugh. I ordered this since it is more durable, but I hope it doesn't have the logo on it (like the sample photo), the one I have now does not. I will update this review...poorly, if they add some product name to the front. UPDATE: got this and no, it doesn't have the name printed on it (thank goodness) BUT, the image on my plate is kind of pink, not really black and white, like it looks on the photo for the product. Plus, my old cardboard one is bigger, and the ummm...switch...looks more proportional. Maybe bigger is better, though for some! ha ha

This movie is heartwarming and will have you clapping your hands with belief for the girls glorious fariries! GREAT family entertainment, great for folks who love the "old country" and those who just love a good tale = ) Beautiful scenery, fantastic story...WONDERFUL for young and older or even old alike!!!

I ordered this previously from one of Amazons partners called Supermart. Unfortunately after a MONTH it never arrived, Amazon refunded my money and I ordered it straight though them, not caring about saving a buck anymore. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition as always. Its a very cute movie for fairy lovers.

"Fairy Tale, A True Story" is a fairly accurate, if superficial, re-telling of the events that took place in Yorkshire just after the Great War in the last Century. Did the little girls really photograph fairies? With excellent special effects and high production values, this is a good film for both parents and children, and one that allows you to make up your own mind about the "little people" and their kind. The famous conflict between Conan-Doyle and Houdini is lightly glossed over, but is still credibly presented. The cast is uniformly excellent and believeable and the period re-creation is accurate enough, even for this pernickety viewer.

A wonderful movie about Two young girls who take photos of Fairies down behind their home. The scenery, cinematography and the introduction of famous people of the time round out the movie beautifully. Great for all ages

This movie is awesome. If you were ever a child (which we all were,)this movie reminds me of how it use to be. The innocence of being a child in an adult world. It also reminds you of what can happen when the innocence is taken away. I recommend this movie to anyone of any age.

Except for the obvious scene splices where commercials were removed, this was a good piece of entertainment. The acting was good, the plot good, as was the video effects. The length allowed several sub-plots time to develop. Well worth it.

This was a request for Christmas from a graduating history teacher, he wanted to be able to teach from a more knowledgeable position, being from that era I feel students need to be aware how much we service people gave.

Great use of words, images, and music to help illustrate the change in attitude of the American public on the subject of our involvement in the war in Vietnam. Takes us from sending in "advisors" in 1960, to the Tet Offensive in 1968, to the Fall of Saigon in 1975, to the Vietnam Memorial in the early 1980s. -- Simply the best!

This is a must have movie. Use your surround sound system and jam this movie. It will blow you away. The music along with the spoken letters of the men and women who were on the line will leave chills running through your body. No matter how you think and feel about the war in Vietnam, you will remember this movie forever.

This documentary is one of a few that show us how it truly was during that time period.I would recomend it highly.

This is a great film which goes through the whole Vietnam conflict. It hits the highlights of the conflict with the use of letters from the soldiers, music, and real film footage. My students find this movie to be powerful even though it is one of the last topics that is discussed in class for the year. There are some swear words (I always warn the kids in advance) but in the context of the letters the students understand why they are there. I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants a good overview of Vietnam.

GREAT product! For my photo journalism, I prefer the Epson Presentation Paper 100-SHEET 8.5X11 Matte Premium Presentation Paper. Photos print clearly and the type is bold and crisp.

For the last two or three years I have been using this paper every day with several different Epson printers in a professional design firm. We use it for printing proofs of catalogs and packaging design, and for printing sales sheets and fliers, and have been consistently happy with the results. This lightweight (27 lb.) paper is an extremely bright white, much brighter than standard copy paper, which makes colors appear crisp and vibrant. The color reproduction is both reliable and accurate, with prints matching screen colors every time (make sure you set your printer's color rendering to "perceptual"). Prints on this paper dry quickly and go on without smudging or warping the paper. If you are interested in a stiffer paper I would suggest the Epson Heavyweight Inkjet Paper which is the same quality but roughly twice as thick as this paper. We have been very happy with this paper and our Epson printers, and recommend them to any student or professional working in the design field. PROS: Bright white Quick drying Good color matching Professional matte look Works excellently in Epson printers Great price for a 100-sheet pack of premium paper CONS: None!

I use this paper for personalized calendars that I make for my family for Christmas presents. It is perfect! I use photos on the calendars and they reproduce very well. The paper prints photos and graphics well and is not too heavy or thick when I laminate 2 pages back to back. Typical photo paper is too heavy or thick to use for lamination. I have used it on HP and Xerox printers, and have not noticed any difference in quality. I have never actually used it on an Epson printer! A very good product for a very good price.

I have an Epson printer and am learning that paper and printer made by the same company work best for special projects. I use this paper mainly when printing instructions for digital scrapbooking or how to use PSE because the instructions usually contain screen shots, photos, page layouts etc. and if the color is bad the instructions loose value. I have just begun to learn about creating brochures and am eager to experiment with this paper. It has a good weight so the see through factor is limited.

When I wish to combine photos and print in a letter or poster I use this paper. The photos are outstanding with the details clear and the colors bright. This provides a much better result than ordinary inkjet paper. I have an Epson photo printer, and try to stick to the brand-name paper to get the best results.

Was told book was shipped the day I bought it. 2 1/2 weeks later I had to email the company to get a new book shipped by the end of the week. Still have no idea where the original book went. Very quick to fix the problem and ship me a new book. Product in excellent condition as promised.

I ordered the book right after reading about it in a magazine article. I was delighted to find it at a very good price. It was delivered promptly and in perfect condition. I was very happy and am a satisfied customer. The book itself is simple, yet compelling. As seen in the cover shot, it is a series of photographs that make you look into the souls of its subjects. Beautiful and so interesting. As a photo enthusiast, I found inspiration for my own photography.

This collection of magnificent portraits makes a wonderful gift or coffee-table purchase. Steve McCurry (fellow Penn Stater and my all-time favorite photographer) has such a unique and remarkable gift - he captures the soul of the individual, whether two months old or one hundred years old, in a seemingly effortless manner. His portraits tell a story in the blink of a moment and I find them absolutely compelling and haunting and natural. I can't recommend his works and this book highly enough. If I had to gripe, I would say that I wish the book was larger and that the author had added accompanying text. Although the portraits themselves do not need any written commentary to enable them to be fully understood and appreciated, I was just curious about how he came upon his subjects and what his interactions with them were like.

This is a small book. The pages are 7 1/4 X 4 7/8. The right hand page contains a stunning borderless image. The left page is blank except for a one line label. Each image demands to be studied. While there is no descriptive text the image can tell its own story. Don't rush through this book but sit and ponder. At the price it is a genuine bargain. Highly recommended.

Here's the pocket-sized and pocket-book-sparing edition of the portrait photo-artistry by Steve McCurry, whose opulent "Looking East" I reviewed a few days ago. That book gives you many of the same pictures in a 14"x20" format, with the highest quality of paper and of printing. This book is well printed, but at 5"x7" the portrait faces can scarcely meet your eye. There's another way to get ahold of McCurry's portraits, on the covers of the awesome CDs of the Cantatas of JS Bach, as conducted by John Eliot Gardiner and recorded at churches around the world during Gardiner's epic Bach Year.

This was a major hit for the 5 year old that received this gift...he danced for 3 hrs straight wearing his glove and hat...and tipped his hat to the video just like MR. JACKSON...what talent..but for this 5 year old Michael has just begun to rock.

Not only did Michael Jackson wear a fedora when performing but my own Czechoslovakian grandfather wore his hat everyday and especially to Sunday service. An excellent rendition of the "Fedora"
