Where do you purchase your prints to sell?

Mine doesn't. Most of the pro labs I've used do print my name on the back.

Imagekind.com just puts a sticker on the back of their framed/canvas prints. The sticker is easily removable.

Slightly off topic, but for those of you using these various services, how do you make sure their final output looks like the image you have on your computer screen? I have some photos that really seemed to pop, and not only on my screen, pretty much every computer I look on. But then when the came back from the service I used (Inkleys/Ritz Camera online), they seemed a little dull, not to mention slightly cyan.

Do all of you just send a few test shots to various places, then you know what adjustments you need to make in the future?

Well, to get accurate reproduction you need to calibrate your monitor. Check out the Spyder from Color Vision. And good labs will have calibration specs and materials they can send you. And most pro labs will adjust your prints for you if you don't calibrate - for a fee of course.

I have 2 of my shots ordered from them, 1-20"x30"
& 1-12"x18", on the metalic paper

Hope to have them soon

FWIW, most labs (at least the pro labs) have the metalic paper these days.

I have been using MyPhotopipe since I started doing photography. I have been pleased with every single item I have had printed. It's super easy to upload your pictures for printing and I think the prices are great-plus shipping is very reasonable. They are really quick too-orders usually ship within 24 hours.They also have the metallic paper (which is called FujiPearl) and I have ordered a few prints in this paper-it's amazing!

I got my prints back today from MPIX.com, and I can say I really like the fuji pearl paper, the colors do pop and MPIX was quick about it. I uploaded & ordered my prints saturday night, the printed & shipped on Monday.
