What methods to people recommend to stick large multi page prints together.

I am using bluetack at the moment as it is forgiving to adjust but overtime it can sag and if you want to move it you have to start all over again putting it back up.

You can glue or tape together of coarse.

Glue could get on the photo and there is the possiblity that the glue drys to oquick while you are making fine adjustments.

Then there is tape. I just see how you can tape up the back while keeping the front align and once it's on it's on and a misalignment is permenant and even if I were prepared to tape up the front, once the tape touches the paper theres no going back on it being in the wrong place et.c

Any ideas?

If so what materials do you tend to use i.e tape type and make, glue type and make

Thanks

The cheap alternative to getting labs to print your large pano photos out is to print out your photo in sections either by calculating the sizes required or using the much easier method of software such as this Proposter (http://www.ronyasoft.com/products/proposter/) to calcluate it all for you.

All you need to do after is stick the prints together for prints of limitless size. I am quite happy with the slightly noticable joins.

It is a fiddly process to stick them together and I wondered if anyone had there own methods.
