Subject: quick question for printing images

I'd like to have some of my images printed (to mat & frame) for Christmas presents at a reasonable price- my printer sucks ;P Is there a place I can upload them to & have them printed (like 8X10 or larger) & mailed back to me or somewhere I can go if I save them to CD & get quality printing? -Remember I live in TX in the sticks

Almost any printer place should be abvle to help you with that. Just make sure your pics are already formatted the size you want, else they will probably charge you extra to do it for you. I wouldn't turn in anything less than 150 dpi, just to make sure you get a nice tight print. There is also an on-line site called deviantart.com that does printing. I have not tried them myself, but to quote a friend - "They Rock". And the prices are very resonable. Good luck :)

The Epson Photo printers are pretty good, and if you plan on a lot of printing will save you cost. But remember to figure in the cost of the paper and the ink; pretty high. Don't know if there is a Ritz Camera down there (here it merged with Wolf). They can make pretty nice dye sumlimation prints up to 8X12 from 300dpi tiff files. They (and also Insty-Print, BTW) also have large (48in wide rolls) inkjet printers. I've not tried these.

Try: www.ofoto.com www.snapfish.com www.shutterfly.com Just to get you started....I'm pretty sure this is what you are looking for. The site Seven Wolves (deviantart.com) mentioned is an art site. You must be a member.....and it is for those artist who wish to sell their work...not really a place to order re-prints and stuff.

I am, therefore I create.......

the deviantart thing also costws money to join. Its really not worht it, its mainly for selling prints. Better to either send them off somewhere, or make the trip yerself to a photostore. Most do digital printing now.

thanks guys! knew you could face me in the right direction- better get started on it, no telling how long it'll take them mailing them back, might even be worth driving into the "big" city for ..better put that Epson printer on my wishlist
