Thanks Cynical and triton for your replies. I was looking at buying the Epson Home Cinema 1080 UB. But if what you are saying about the Epson 720 is true maybe i should save my money. The only thing that i wanted was at least 2 HDMI ports in the back and the 720 only has one.

I actually have a soffit above where the screen will go so that should help a lot in blocking some light from the ceiling. And painting the room a darker color would not be a problem at all. Just not sure the wife would want the ceiling anything but white. I wanted to go with a 104inch screen from carada but after seeing your DIY screen i think i will go that route.

Where do you buy the Laminate from? What shade of white would be good? I will actually be sitting 13 feet from the screen with projector mounted on wall behind me at 14ft.

I am definetly going to look into that Epson you have. If you do have screenies i'd love to see them. By the way your screen came out perfect. How much was the end cost for your screen if i may ask?

I'm nervous moving into the front projection scene but everyone tells me the movie experience beats rear projection TV's hands down.

My 56 1080p TV just isn't big enough for me anymore.

I just want to be sure that with HD content from a Blu-Ray player will look as good or better then my current Samsung DLP.
