Where are you located? What are you using now to hang the canvases? How big
are the prints you are displaying? What panels are you using - you say you
have solid and mesh...do you use a combination of the 2 or just 1 type at a
time?
I use propanels and their cable hanging system which works very well for me.
For large work (32x48+), I use 2 cable hangers so there there is no problem
with the artwork blowing around and getting crooked. You can also use
velcro on the backs of the images - on the bottom corners, to keep them from
getting crooked.
I would recommend using propanels and their hardware to make the panels
rigid. Also hook them to your canopy with the hardware for added stability
and weight.
Hope that helps!
