Reliable Image Production Online
« on: February 02, 2011, 09:09:07 pm »
I'm looking for a trusted and reliable service online where I can upload photos, have them printed in high quality on glossy paper and delivered to my door.

I've only used things like Asda/Boots in-store photo production before.
Is there a secure and reasonably priced service online where I can just click online, select the size of the image and wait for them to arrive through the letter box?

It's only going to be a one off purchase so these "only £xx per month" etc offers won't appeal  :happy2:

Any recommendations from personal experience would be ace, i.e. your photos didn't end up on forums round the world  :grin:
Thanks
Pete

I have always had good experiences of both Snapfish and photobox.

A friend of mine had some done by http://www.theprintspace.co.uk/ on their metallic Kodak paper and I must admit they were stunning.  :happy2:

Google faux film. Always brilliant photos. It's a small company sp they are brilliant. A lot of photographers use them

The gadget show covered this, maybe they still have the episode/review on the website?

Ive only ever used Photobox. The photos ive had from them are very good an their canvas prints are good too. Might give that Faux film a try.

Thanks all - some food for thought there.

I notice hardly any of them give you a quote or price until you've uploaded your images first - is this normal practice or user error?  :laugh:
