So, I'm going to have my first "real" art show at a local place in a few months, and need to figure out how to get prints and frames and mat and everything without taking a horrible kick in the wallet.
I've been consistently disappointed with CafePress and Zazzle prints, since they always seem to turn out a lot darker than they should and don't offer a lot of variety in paper type/quality.
Can anyone recommend a good place to have professional-quality prints made without having to spend a ton?
Does anyone have experience with DeviantArt prints? Do you recommend them?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Our Book on Evolution: Signed Copies Available
Just over a year ago, myself and Agahnim (https://www.deviantart.com/agahnim) reached a major milestone in our long-term goal of evolution education and outreach, which served the basis for starting our DA group Domain-of-Darwin (https://www.deviantart.com/domain-of-darwin) over 11 years ago. We published our first book! Published by Inkwater Press and titled God’s Word or Human Reason?, the book has been available on Amazon since January of last year.
I am now offering direct purchases of signed, inscribed hardcovers that are personalized with a drawing of a bird or dinosaur of your choice. They are $40 (U.S. and Canada) or $50 (everywhere else), shipping included. Thanks to my excellent web developer frie
My book is published!
At long last—it is here!
After nearly a decade of hard work, patience and stubborn perseverance, the book on the evolution/creationism debate that I've been working on with Agahnim (https://www.deviantart.com/agahnim) and colleagues is finally ready for public consumption.
Published by Inkwater Press, 424 pages, you can get the hardcover on Amazon for $36: https://www.amazon.com/Gods-Word-Human-Reason-Perspective/dp/1629013722
Among many other things, this book will feature a handful of totally new full-color pieces of my paleoart, a teaser of which I will upload here soon, so stay tuned.
Dakotaraptor!
Most of my watchers by now will have seen my two illustrations for this new dromaeosaur, but I think the discovery is exciting enough to warrant its own journal entry as well!
Without further ado: meet Dakotaraptor, the first "giant" dromaeosaur from the Hell Creek formation.
I've been sitting on these illustrations for months and can't think of the last time I've been so excited to illustrate a new taxon. At 5.5 meters in length and with magnificently robust ulnar quill knobs, this is not only the first "giant" dromaeosaur from Hell Creek, but it is also the first dromaeosaur in this size range with indisputable evidence of feathers.

I've had good luck with dA prints; just be sure to take the time to examine all the options, especially photo prints. It seems that most prints are to some degree darker than the original image, but 'lustre' will be noticeably darker. The sizes may include some cropping of the image as well, so use the 'edit print' option if that's the case, and you can re - size it to fit the available sizes 
Framed prints may be cheaper here than getting it done elsewhere, but I haven't tried that option here yet.
