Archival = Cibachrome / Ilfochrome paper. One of the highest quality
papers available. An archival quality paper that meets the requirements of museums and is
often used for permanent display. The colors are vibrant, more saturated, almost metallic
in nature. The paper/process is very expensive but is the best choice if you want a print
that will last for many years without fading (according to the manufacturer over 200 years
under proper conditions). The Cibachrome's we're currently offering are signed limited
editions.
Standard = Better than the poster type images you get at most shopping
malls, suitable for framing and home display. This is the paper you get when you have
prints made at reputable photo store. Still holds up well if you protect from UV light and
display under normal home/office conditions.
