I've used Jessops in store printing several times and found it to be excellent quality with very nicely balanced prints (I'm a wannabe amateur photographer) For bulk prints though that I don't need "spot-on" like for the wifes crafting I use photobox as they seem "ok", the price is especially good as you get 20 free prints for signing up. All you pay for is postage. Register yourself a new gmail, register on photobox, enjoy 20 free prints, other services prolly do a similar offer. For the odd print needed for a journalling page or popping in a frame, I have a HP photoprinter, the A636 I think it is which is excellent, its damned expensive to print photo's yourself, certainly do avail yourself of online services except for the odd one or two here and there. A little tip by the way, when you are looking through photos I use gThumb as my normal everyday image viewer and in the preferences it has hot keys, bind one to do something like: cp %f /home/subbass/data/print/ All the photo's you want to print get copied to a print folder, all ready to upload super easy :] -- John Williams My linux blog of notes and guides http://subbass.blogspot.com/
