Help with online printing services

[Mr Noble]

Hi,

I need to order a print online (a present for an Aunty and I'm worried it'll fade over time if I print in on my printer) but wonder how they do them if you only upload 250kb and 750 px wide imiges?


I want a good high res 10x8" print, but photobucket only lets me order from my uploaded images and thay are all squished to tiny "web" sizes.


How do I do it?


Should I just open an account at another place??

Set up account, uploaded image and ordered prints in about 5 minutes.

They were despatched 20 mins later!!


Fingers crossed they arrive before Friday lunchtime (normal post) and that they are good quality. (went for the matt finish in 7x5's)

They will be there tomorrow. They always are.

[Mr Noble]

You're correct Steve!!



Rather amazingly, they arrived in the 1st post!! How did they do that? More to the point, what would be the effect of paying for either of the 2 more speedy delivery services??





Very impressed! The shots are rather darker than they appeared on my screen. I think I need to get it calibrated properly somehow.. Don't think I've ever done this!

[poah]

did you upload as sRGB rather than RGB. I find if I turn my LCD at an angle I get pritns that match so its easy to adjust them accordingly
