Which do you guys recommend? I Have a series of large format images to render and was wondering where to look.

Thanks much,
Ron

I'd go for Ranch.
If you submit the rendering at night time (22.00, 24.00 GMT +1) you will easily have success even by choosing the cheapest fare (which is the one with the lowest priority of course). It's 12cent per Ghz/h that's really cheap, indeed.
Just take care to check your mxi size before submitting because when it becomes quite heavy, the merging process would take more than the calculation time (but this occurs on every large renderfarm).
Anyway they have a cost estimator based on mxi size, resolution and desired calculation time that is quite precise.
If you don't strictly need multilight with a dozen of emitters then, keep the light setup as simple as possible.... neglecting to merge two emitters that can be merged into only one could easily cost you 10-20$...or more!

Thanks Mattia...I will look into The Ranch.

I would look into render rocket. That is who i use for all my renderings. They are very flexible. They have many cores and can give you what you need to get the job done at a fair price.

Their web site is..

They are in Cali.

Ask about thier flat rate (low priority renderings) for Maxwell and see if they still offer it. That is what I am on but they gave me that deal awhile ago. They still may be offering it.

Great, thanks Asmithey, I will check them out...
