Basically something like 8x10 or something a little better like your 11x15. If I was going to print something I really liked I would want it to be big enough to put on a wall and not have it look too small for the wall. Standard postcard size like what you would get at a 1 hour photo place is not what I want. What type of printer are you using or do you have them done at a shop? I have been debating on if I should get a printer since so far I have not had any pics that I felt deserved to be printed.

It's too easy to look at our images on the monitor at 100%, 200% and 500% and think, "look at all that noise." Very few of us print in those sizes, so you need to not put too much stock in what you see there. The only time I look that big anymore is when I'm making corrections.
