Premium Matte
What’s the best paper choice for printing graphic artwork? I’m new to printing my work.?
My choices are “premium luster photo paper” “enhanced matte paper” and “premium semi-gloss” photo paper” (all epson products)
Image I want to print is a higher quality and without watermark version of “Phoenix Rising” viewable at http://www.bloowoda.com/art-gallery/art-gallery.html
Using Photoshop CS3 and an Epson Stylus 2200
Thanks Amy, the premium luster looks fantastic!
Thanks for the site review. Those were all on my “to do” list. Our site was thrown together (including all the content) very very quickly, but I made the changes along with making the graphic into a vector image. You missed that one 
You could see the pixels when it was blown up. Don’t worry we have the trademark symbol on enough other material to protect ourselves.
As far as the art, I use a lot of different things to get the image I want. Fractals are one of them. For instance, the swirling energy in our site background is a fractal that was colorized in photoshop.
Your colors are very rich and deep, and somewhat on the dark side. I would actually experiment with each paper type to see which one you like. I think that the luster or semi-gloss would do best; the matte might darken the print too much.
I looked at your website and it’s rather interesting. I do have a couple of things to point out, one is that you say that “Bloowoda” is trademarked, yet neither the TM nor ® mark appear anywhere that the name appears. (however, the discussion of its meaning was entertaining.) There’s also a few typos here and there (or wrong word choices, like “bare” for “bear” in your logo design info page.)
One last question (please e-mail me a response through my profile, thank you): are you using a Fractal program to generate the images?
