    Re: Two Business Opportunities for me...how to approach them??

    I think creating your composite in PS would be the most inexpensive way to go. I don't remember what our composites looked like, as far as how they were framed. I don't remember if there was a matt board with a cut out for each print, or if it was just one large print designed to look matted... I know the small ones we got were just a print, but I'm not sure about the large one for the chapter house.

    I guess it depends on how much time and money you want to invest in the project. Personally, I think it would be well worth the investment on your part. Once you get your template created, you will just have to stick the photos in and retype some of the text for the next years members and you're done. It would be a great way for you to make a little money for yourself, and to save your fraternity some cash at the same time. And there is always the possibility of expanding your business to other chapters on your campus.

    Good luck and keep up posted.

    Thank you, everyone, for your responses. I'll google Artist's World in Cedarburg and try to get a quote from them, and I think there is a shop in Oshkosh that builds frames and stuff that I will call for a quote as well. I didn't consider doing the layout in Photoshop, but I will look into that a little more.
