The first two options are full photo and color wrap. I could not find what they mean by these two terms.
In general color wrap is the one that presents the full photo on the front (edge on the side is a color you choose). The other is image wrap, where the image wraps around the edges.
You couldn't understand by the description on the website?
I thought I explained this.
They use terms that depart from the meanings generally used. As such, they are confusing.
The link provided by the OP takes you to a page that says "full photo" and "color wrap" for the first two options.
Now, generally it is color wrap that provides "full photo", since with image wrap some of the image is hidden no matter from where you look at the picture.
Once I note such a misnomer I do not trust that I will get the print I am expecting.
Have been burned on this before.
I've done this deal before. Prints come out great as long as you are uploading a high resolution image/photo and you specifically have to set an option in the CVS site when uploading to upload as full quality (I don't remember their exact wording). Prints at my location are usually done same day and ready for pick-up.
I have a canvas print someone gave me and the picture is sentimental so I kept it, but imo every canvas print with your picture on it (includng the one i was given) is nothing compared to an art canvas print-- I'm not saying a museum quality art print-- maybe, say like an art print you'd pick up at marshalls or tj maxx. When you buy a canvas print with your picture on it -- at cvs, walgreens etc keep in mind the picture will be washed out with very muted colors, much of the detail will be gone with the image quite blurry, and the canvas will look cheap with no shine. If you don't believe me go into cvs but keep in mind the display models are probably the best it can get -or get an 8x10 photo along with your canvas print and compare the two. Hang the photo in a frame (using the same $ spent for the canvas) and hang the canvas. You'll get a classy looking photo (walgreens prints are good around me) and a cheap tacky looking canvas that will be out like a thomas kinkade painting from the 1990s that you can't even give away.
Unless the print and canvas paper get better at cvs,walgreens, etc and (as an example) you want to sell your house with potential buyers coming in for a look-see, keep the photo framed on the wall -or else keep the flowery sofa, the giant TV stand that weighs a ton, and the shag carpet in the bathroom with the matching toilet seat cover - along with that photo canvas you're proudly displaying from cvs. I'm sure there's someone out there that'll buy your place.
