Photo clip frames mount? how?

Hi. Ive been willing to fill a space for a plain wall for a while now. At first I wanted a canvas print but found out that was expensive to buy for a size I wanted (about A1 poster).

Anyways. I found a cheaper solution "clip frames" and I can change the prints anytime I like rather than a static canvas. Im thinking of getting 4x A2 clip frames mounting them together seperating an image kinda like the modern look (GTA style...)

the prints il get at photobox and found these frames with different prices. dont the difference between them..

or

lastly.. how would I mount these on the wall....?

I wouldn't recommend mounting photos directly against glass as they tend to stick.
better off getting an A3 frame from Ikea which comes with a 12x8 mount and just change the photo.

IMO

Except the Ikea frames are £7.50. complete with mount, which is an added extra on the linked site.
