So, I just moved back to school. I pretty much got the essentials moved into the room but I'm looking for some decent framed photos/posters so I can fill up the walls a bit. I want to get something a little bit "out of the ordinary", any suggestions? (Now would be a good time to possibly sell some of your prints or talk up your favourite artist)
I don't have any specific suggestions, but with that small of a room you are going to need to exercise your eyes a lot. I would suggest a sweeping vista (ocean, mountain, etc.) that has a lot of depth to it so your eyes can roam and at least feel like they are focusing at a distance.
Something colorful would be good too.

Ahh, dorm-life -- oh, how I do not miss it at all!
Yea, that's a good suggestion Britannica. Yeah, the room is small, but it looks even smaller in the pic. Should work out pretty good though, plus it's in a fraternity house so I'll be pretty "convienent". At least I don't have a roommate this year. :)
I have several alaska pics that would look nice in your room.
Yes, ok, it's my own shameless plug, but I see a couple that would look nice in your room and my prints are generally underpriced, since right now I am more interested in seeing what sells than making money.
Ahhh college, what a fun time in a person's life. If I were to decorate your room I would put up a few simple pictures, add some nice throw pillows, maybe a ficus for the corner, and install some exercise equipment so you don't gain the freshman 15.
I don't know that I'd feel comfortable pushing my prints at you just to make a sale.
What are your main interests other than photography? If you're into travel then my prints might suit but if you're into portraits or macros or landscapes or cars then I am sure they wouldn't!
Of course, you'd be more than welcome to browse them! There's no charge for looking!
I like just browsing DPC Prints by artist and selecting names at random.
Sometimes I put in an abitrary word and see what I get.
PS Ben (Konador) has some great stuff up that's being sold for charity!
