You can do this yourself, just go here :

http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/

And download the application (for free). Give the program a graphic, tell it the size etc and it will generate a PDF. You print the PDF and sick it up.

If I had this when I was younger, my bedroom would be FILLED!

Damn cool!!!!!!

I just saw the one of your daughter... she is so so cute!!!

But WOW :o ... isnt' that the coolest thing ever...

It doesn't seem to distort the image in any way whatsoever..
Ohhh and the quality looks really good.. maybe it is one of those things you need to see up close to see any flaws....

When you try it - use a value of 2 (the default is 10) - makes for a better picture.

You can experiment a bit - it's fun. Also - you don't need to print the whole thing, write down which pages you need to print and then do it that way.

Ok... will try that.
It would be really interesting to try printing it on different types of papers and stuff.

I am really wanting to try doing this with my nephews.

Noice. If I had a good wall I'd put something good on it.

On another note. You... didn't... put the waterbottle by the side of it to show how big it was did you? A4 sheets of paper are generally the same size ;)

I did actually ... Ondie ... yes...

I sent it to someone as a photo and couldn't tell them what size it was so I put that there for them.
