Framing Question, by nacional on May 20, 2011 12:56:43 GMT 1, Bit of a dull question for Friday.

When I get my prints framed in the UK always go to top end framers and never have actually looked at how they mount the print within the frame in terms of getting the thing to stay there.

Now I am in Buenos Aires and am getting a couple of Banksy's framed and do not have the same trust in the framers here.

So, my question is...how does the print get put on what might be called the backboard...is it with some type of tape, some type of glue...I am a bit clueless here and would appreciate some help...

cheers all

The backboard should just be giving some stability rather than being attached. Obviously if float mounting its not possible not to use a level of adhesives between the backing board and print

MEMBERS • Please Post & Share Links to New PRINT RELEASES and Auctions below

proffesser • Mr Brainwash in Nottingham on Wednesday 4th December 6-8pm.. a tad too early for me but might appeal to some more local clarendonfineart.com/collections/come-and-meet-mr-brainwash

rparducci • That's a good idea ,have you got any pictures of what exactly you meant? Was thinking of maybe ornate in red too? What are your thoughts

ollie123 • @

Daniel Silk • We are getting some very encouraging stats on the forum this week as I continue with the board and threads changes.

zatarro • Looking for artwork of ROA. If someone has art from this artist to sell, please let me know. Thx

cdot • www.instagram.com/p/DCmJRlct3XV/?img_index=4&igsh=Mmc3MnZmajhkM3Fx

Daniel Silk • The number or Boards and Threads continues to fall as we simplify the layout of the forum.

Daniel Silk • I hear a lot of Artists complaining about Instagram in the past year, how it used to be a good tool for Artists, but it's not good anymore, is that true?

anyaart • For Brett Kern fans, I noticed there is a spinosaurus for sale on E-Bay. It's a limited edition, one of only 60 made. This is the rarest of his dinosaurs. I am not the seller. I already have the same dino purchased in 2016. I've never seen one up for sale

Dive Jedi • Get well soon, Daniel Silk . All the best !

Daniel Silk • Apology • Sorry I have been offline this past few weeks, due to a very bad Fever. I'm slowly getting better, step by step, and catching up with things here on the forum on the days I'm well enough. Thank you for your understanding.

Boy Wonder • I read that they were more or less nicked the same day they went up. Loads of fakes exist.

milou2 • Would love to see any photos of Banksy's first exhibition at the Severnshed in Bristol (2000). Who was there? *

jirr • Hi all, over here in the states. Pandemic put me out of business, need to sell this asap. Please send offers thanks so much

matgab • Steven Harrington - Gotcha first ed for sale.

1nkling • I can't help but think that a more reasonable tier for people who just want to support the work you guys do would raise more income. Then other tiers for those that want specialist benefits.

1nkling • As soon as I saw the heading for the email I thought 'Oh yeah, I use that place a lot. I'd happily support it'. Not at £40 a month though. I have a paid sub for a Formula 1 site I use that is very active. They have a high uptake on subs at £12 a year.

1nkling • Pricing on the new supporters sub seems a bit poorly thought out. £40 a month to have a pinned sale thread being the only listed benefit?

Daniel Silk • The forum now has more than half the number of Boards than it had a year ago! As we work towards simplifying the layout.
