Printing Photos
Discussion
I've used foto.com and can't fault them.
Their 30" x 20" equivalent is around 1/4 the price of others.
Good deal on 6x4" prints at the moment too (500 for £5)

Not exactly what you've asked for, but if you're after the very highest quality canvas prints, try me !

Am just getting a couple uploaedtotry now, see what they are like
Please keep me posted - I'd be very interested to see what they turn out like.
I've been happy enough with Photobox even for poster-size prints, but I have some serious screen calibration issues with them! With the two printers I've used at home the screen image and printed image come out very much the same, Photobox's prints come out really, really dark (about two stops or more out) so I need to edit my photos and send them versions that look really over-exposed on my screen, they come back fine. I find that a faff. Anyone else suffer this? Some of the shots are straight from an EO20D with little or no editing, so I'm suprised it's so far out.

hmmm... I haven't had this problem with photobox. But I kinda' expected to, so have always been pleasantly surprised.

i have just uploaded an order for 9 12inch pictures with them to see how they come out, so i too will let you know. even if they are mediocre, 9 pictures for under £13 including delivery would still be great value for money.
I've had several of the 12" prints from Pixum when they were previously on offer, and have been seriously impressed. They came out sharp and correctly coloured, even from my crappy 3.2mp camera which I thought would pixelate. Delivery costs a bit as they come from Germany but only takes 3-4 days and they are really well packaged. Big thumbs up from me!
just had my order delivered from pixum.
as stated by others, very well packaged.
they do all seem a bit dark though. i did tick the box saying "dont modify my pics" as it said that it would be unwise if you have spent any time post-processing them, so maybe that is what that option does. but its not too bad, just noticeable to me seeing as i have spent so long fine-tuning them.
overall fairly impressed though. getting christmas presents for just a few pounds each seems like an absolute bargain

I have this too. Got burnt with the first batch I did but I now adjust to compensate whenever I have a batch printed.
