Have you ever done a mock magazine cover

I want to do a mock magazine GQ cover for DH. He jokes that he wishes he could be on the cover. I know some places will do it. I found one place but its not in NYC. From the site it does look great but curious if anybody has done this and can personally recommend a company.

This is what it looks like

awww thats great, what magazine are you going to do?

yeah i am trying to do everything that is about him lol. I remember him always saying the GQ cover thing so thought it'd be funny. I know a long time ago i saw a place in the city that does cakes with your pics on them and the samples i saw also had mock magazine covers and put on the cake, but i cant find it now of course lol. I was thinking of that originally but this would be good. They give it to you on a disk, so i can even bring it to a photo place and blow it up

try the one i posted. I was reading more about it. This lady who writes for a magazine wrote a review on them and she liked it and says alot of nice things about the lady who does it. She said its a 24-48 hour turnaround time, and she will make any changes you want no matter how many times she has to change things and you pay when you are 100% happy. So thats good to know

You should have a side-picture and pretend that there is a preview for music awards and have the song, 'You're so Vain' by Carly Simon there lol That would be funny!

LOL he probably would get mad, plus hes not really vain. I mean he can have his moments sometimes I guess, but he can be quite the opposite actually, sometimes he puts on an act but he is not vain.
