Default Photo Printing Questions

This may have been asked before. But where do y'all get your photo prints done. I have heard of WHCC but I can't seem to find if they deliver to Canada.

Right now I use Blacks. The photography place at the mall. I have used Wal-mart (once and never again) , Future Shop (made decent Photocards but not regular pics) & Snapfish.

However Blacks doesn't do the photo cards I am wanting.

I am looking for a professional place that wants the pics in original format. Have any of ye guys use these companies and do you really see a differance? Is it worth to get the pics printed on Metallic Paper?

Default Local Shops

I've found that you get the best results from local printing houses. I've had good luck with a local place in Vancouver called The Print House.

One option is to go to your local camera store and ask the staff. They'll often be able to rattle off a half-dozen good places their customers and they themselves use.

Occassionally I go to Costco, but some people have mentioned mpix. Here's a thread on it.
