Guessing this is the right forum!

I have hundreds of photo's (snaps) of holidays, family trips etc that I'd like to get printed. So what preferences does everyone have for doing this?

www.photobox.co.uk - 7.5" x 5" very cheap and great quality.

They also print up to 30" x 20" in size

I see you're in the southeast, anywhere near godalming and i could do you a deal at snappysnaps. Not sure i will be able to get as low as somewhere like photobox though.

http://www.dscolourlabs.co.uk/online_photo_printin... have good deals for printing lots of images. Works out at 14p each if you have more than 150 to print at 7.5 x 5

I'd seriously consider putting them all in a Photobook.

May not be as cheap as lots of 6x4's but you will end up with something that you can treasure.

www.blurb.com - 200 page book would allow at least 400 pictures and costs from £24.95 plus postage, costs depend on cover.

Now that looks interesting! However not going to do it for this particular operation as I think I can save the idea for some Christmas presents! So thanks for that as I never knew you could do that!

So of the mass printers is Photobox generally considered the best/cheapest combination? Thanks for the posts so far.

If your editing images in an editor before sending them to photobox be careful! Their printers base the colour/darkness calibration on the EXIF data from the image... if you edit the file it looses the EXIF, so its possible to end up with slightly incorrect or dark prints...

Calibrate your editing software/screen and you wont have issues...

I use them for all my event photos... quick and usually ok
