Can anyone recommend an online provider and/or method of canvas printing of photographs? It doesn't need to be wrapped around gallery style stretched canvas, but just a way to remotely have photographs printed from a digital format to stretch canvas. Money, distance, etc are not factors. I'm more interested in process and quality of result.

I don't have a first hand experience with their canvas prints, but BayPhoto did fine on my 20x16 foamcore mounted prints. Their prices seem to be in-line with comparative services and their customer service is very good as well. The submission of files is through a convenient Java applet (BayROES) that you download from their website and through which you manage your account.
There is also RGBdigital in Brisbane Australia. Here are the sizes and prices: http://rgbdigital.com.au/pricelist/canvas.html They also use ROES for electronic orders. They use quality Canson matte cotton canvas, printed on a large format Epson printer with archival inks, every canvas is custom made, frames are cut to size and canvas hand stretched.
We offer great prices for archival certified canvas wraps. Upload any picture to our site and we do all the work for you. Check out our website @ http://www.squareonecanvas.com or on Facebook @ http://www.facebook.com/squareonecanvas
There are several, plus, several blog posts across the web suggesting such services.
