Can this be done?

My SO, well now ex, is a photographer. He took a recent picture that is STUNNING. I was wondering... is there any item/way for me to get a specific picture he took and frame it, but have it be on one of those things that has the picture kind of on a transparency, and it's lit up? He has this awesome sunset picture that I want to frame it but light it up.... does that make sense?

It makes sense. Do you have a sign shop in your area? They may do it or at least be able to tell you who can. Sorry I'm not of much help on specifics.

no clue... but when did you guys break up?

They do it all the time but not sure how. lol Probably as the other person said a sign shop could point you in the right direction.

Quoting snglemama:" no clue... but when did you guys break up?"

A few weeks ago, and I'm smurfing wrecked from it. I am seriously barely, barely holding on. Every time his son messages me on facebook, or I look at pics of us... smurf it kills me.

I am NOT really handling it well at all. He changed since his smurfing roommate moved in. He said he can't tell what the future holds and we may get back together, but at the same time, I smurfing HATE waiting. I do believe we are meant to be. Meanwhile, he knows damn well I won't have sex unless it means something anymore and he.... well he's a smurfing manwhore. So the thought of him hooking up with someone kills me. I have had people want to go out but I just can't do it, I'm way past that hooking up part of my life. Plus, it'd just remind me that all I want is Tony.

Despite us being broken up, I support his photography like crazy and this picture he took is just amazing, it's an AMAZING picture of the sun rising over denver. So it lit up would be awesome! I can post if if people would like to see

That sucks! do you feel kind of like you are being stringed (is that the weird? Lol) along?

No, he just doesnt want to be together, and I want to be. It just hurts

No, he's been pretty blunt with me. Though at times hes all "We will NEVER be together" and I think that's just when he starts to get sick of smurf and is an smurf, but then other times he says he can't tell what the future holds. Then we start talking and he's all "We wouldn't be here if you had just talked to me." Ya know, like he's not 100% about it. Smurf sucks though

If you like being crafty & don't mind the time it takes you *can* do it yourself. You get a reverse image...but maybe on transparency that wouldn't matter...as you could flip it. It involves painting LOTS of layers on the picture of some stuff (I could find the name) and then after many many layers (and drying in between) you get it wet & rub off the paper backing (that takes time too & you have to be careful - then you can glue it to anything - canvas, a clear sheet, whatever - there is special glue for clear & you squeegee it like a glass transfer.

So yeah - unless you are into crafts - like really into it - call a sign shop. I would do it myself, but it's totally up my alley of crap I'm always trying to do & then half the time spend the same amount of money on buy the things I need to do it as I would getting it done for me lol.
