Can anyone recommend a good online printing site so I can print off some of my photos? I've seen Photobox but I have no idea if they are any good.
Cheers for any suggestions. Aduk

I have had some 6 x 4s done and they are very good. I don't know about larger sizes, though.

Why do people with expensive cameras say you don't need one to take good photographs

Only got one online printed pic and that was a gift from a friend. It was done by PhotoBox and is a very good representation of what the day was like (as regards colours etc.). Shame the subject isn't as good as the picture deserves. It's about 36" x 24" and is printed on Fujicolor Crystal Archive paper.

I've had an A2 print done by PhotoBox of a sunset in Whitby with a lot of subtle tone changes and though it was a tad dark, I think that was more to do with me not knowing about monitor calibration at the time 
lots of good clear detail in the print as well - more than happy with them

I use PhotoBox regularly for 18"x12" competition prints and am more than happy with their print quality. They are also very fast, with prints generally arriving next day by first class post.
If you don't have a calibrated monitor, then it may also be worth giving Peak Imaging a go. They are a little more expensive than PhotoBox and also sightly slower (typically 2-3 days for delivery), but will correct the print colour by hand if required.

Thanks for that. I see lots of people are using Photoshop
but its just too expensive for me. I'll try some of the other suggestions and see how I get on. I bought a copy of
ToneUp S3 for about £7 and so far it seems great. Does
anyone else use it ? The website is www.ToneUpStudio.com
