SecretLeeds - History, culture and architecture in Leeds

Does anyone know where i can get decent prints of pictures that ive taken on holiday.I do have a good printer,but paper and ink is at a premium when you have 250 pics,i only print off the more important ones on this rather than the day to day ones.Trouble is is that ive just come back from Boots and for the second time even the bog standard pictures they have printed are absolutely pants.I dont mind paying a bit more for better qualityAny suggestions?PS will remove this thread when it comes to a conclusion,as it isnt really in the spirit of the site

Try the flickr Leeds group as well Chris.There's over 2000 photographers in there.

ASDA's pretty good and cheap

The finished item will only be as good as the resolution of the file remember, a low quality image looking ok in small format can be disapointing when blown up

I have used the Kodak shop on Vicar Lane at the Markets for 2 or more years now and find that photos printed there have always been fine. It's a beauty of printing digital photos that if they are not satisfactory then having them done elsewhere can be tried (which I had done before using the Kodak shop).

Have a look at Aldi website .5p per print for any amount + £1.33 pp I use them often and you get them back in 2 days. Good quality prints

In the 90's I came back from USA with about 25 x36 35millrolls of film.was able to negotiate something like 10% discount with I thinkProntaprint.Worth shopping around/asking.

many thanks everyone,will take a look

hi cnosnihave you tried to copy the photo's to a cd, the cd image should be the same quality as the original downloaded photo's
