I took a few pics of mine framed and then realized I must be a silly person. How do you attach pics on a post here? I see the Img button but it just adds that as text to my post. Any help? I don't see an add pic icon. What am I missing.

where are you uploading your photos? Flickr, photobucket? For me, I upload them to flickr, once they have loaded I go to said picture and (mac) ctrl click and choose load in new tab. That is the address I use when posting imgs. Hope it helps.

I framed it in a Black frame & set it on an easel. Again, I can't believe how nice of a print this turned out to be.

Quick side-by-side comparison:

edit: The image shrank when I posted it, but it's bigger if you open it in another window.

And I really, really hope to see more of the collage elements appearing in the offset work in future pieces. Very fun.
I just got mine and I agree 100%. This thing is gorgeous and BIG props to Obey for making this so available.

pitviper, skoola, and others getting this print framed already: are you guys just throwing this into a stock frame against the glass? any mattes, spacers, or mylar corners being used? just curious, as I've never bought a cheap stock frame before, but am considering this if you guys are finding it to fit so easily. thanks for the pics!

It doesn't have screenprint ink to stick to the glass or plexi so you should be fine putting it in a prefab frame. The best thing would be to get a sheet of acid free material (paper or mat) and put it between the back of the print and the backing board of the frame. Also, if it'll be getting hit with fluorescent light or sunlight you should consider UV glass (maybe about $35 for a 24 x 36 inch piece at your local framer).

Mine fit just fine in the standard frame. DOH1 did not, and needed to be custom framed. I did take Pat's suggestion about the acid free paper for the backing of War by Numbers. Thanks Pat! Very helpful.
