Good online printing service
Can anyone recommend a good quality online machine printing service. I have a set of 7x5's from a wedding I need printing up. I can't entrust these to the quality of the local Asda or even Jessops, but neither do I expect each print to be hand printed. Places like Photobox etc?

Well, you know about Photobox - and that's who I use. Other than that, no advice I'm afraid!

I use Photobox but have used Kodak before From memory the Photobox prints were better to me.

Think Moonie did a in depth survey of what was available but I can't find it now, she will no doubt catch up with this thread and let you know.

They are 5 hours behind, so she tells me, but being Sunday she may well be out with her children.

Try these lot:
http://www.dscolourlabs.co.uk/index.cfm
They are cheap, quick and very good quality. 16"x12" for 95p, not easy to beat!

photobox are awesome, Their service is extremely consistent. I've seen less than a 24 hour turn around on many occasions.
