Printing advise from fellow Europeans!

[Boscopix]

Hey everyone,
I was wondering if anyone in Europe knows of an online print source that does good prints on metallic paper? I am living in Germany, and I have no idea where to go to find one! I was hoping to find a place online. Thanks in advance for any help!!
Cheers,
Tonya

Hi,

I recently had two large Kodak Endura metallic prints made by http://www.swcl.co.uk/ and can v.highly recommend them. Their service was exceptional and they even hand delivered them to me as one of their people were in the area. Hayley Taylor in particular helped a great deal to get them done.

My tip is to make sure you get the brightness right on metallic prints as they shine wonderfully when the original is rich and vibrant.

Mike.

Thank you guys! I found a company in Austraila as well that delivers all over the world. (Prolab I think its called) Anyhow, I will try some different ones out and see what works out best!
Thanks again

PS- Thanks for the metallic print tips Mike, as its my first go at this! Glad to hear you had nice results!
