Is this for a 1 time use or is this something you are looking to make a business out of? If it is a 1 time thing there are many places you can take your image to and they can print it on a variety of different materials. If this is more then a one time thing, you will have to narrow it down a bit. I work for a print management/services company and would be happy to get you in touch with a sales professional in your area who should be able to find exactly the equipment you are looking for.

this will hopefully be doing this more then once, it will be used from "mass"* producing custom skate decks, to painting random pictures on my walls whenever i feel like it.

for printing on a wall, best to go to your local print shop and make a poster. if you have any art skills you could also get an art projector(also called an opaque projector) to enlarge a design and then paint it by hand. I have no idea how most skateboard designs are done but I think your best bet would be some kind of heat transfer machine, like the kind used to put designs on t-shirts. I have no idea how well heat transfer would work on curved surfaces since boards aren't flat, but it would probably work better than silk screening which requires a flat surface to transfer designs onto.
