Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I always prefer a larger print!. Use 8x10, 11x14 or 16x20!. The reason I suggest these sizes are because they fit the standard size mats and frames!.

I would either send them in a mailing tube or sandwich the prints between pieces of cardboard and mail in a large envelope or box!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

My strongest advice never bend the picture!. It looses its quality!. Try to print a A4 size image or 8 X 11 image and put it in a 8X11 envolpe to post it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
