Does anyone have any experience having their digital photos printed? I have read that Walmart is pretty mediocre, but I don't know about Costco etc.
Any insight is appreciated. I have a photo printer but its not new and the quality isn't up to my standards.
Thanks.

Ive had pretty good results at Target, but i havent printed any photos larger than 5x7. They are as sharp as the resolution you took them at, and once they are in a frame, i cant tell the digital ones from the film ones.
Its Orville's Celica, i just drive it...
My local Costco does a good job. I always get my small 4x6" prints done at a local place called Photohaus though...they do an even better job. But you can't beat 12x18" prints at Costco for $3 a piece.
New Toyota project coming soon...
Unfortunately I don't know of any local, small photo shops that could print them. I will have to look harder because they would probably do a better job. I am trying out Walgreens via Snapfish.com. I will pick them up today, so I will report on how they turn out.

those little kodak stations at CVS do a good job for me. i have a few prints up around my room, they look nice.

I just looked into Costco photo center and it says "from Snapfish by HP" which is what I used. So if they're probably using the same equipment as this Walgreens that Snapfish directed me to.

So I just got them back from Walgreens and I must say I am pretty impressed. The shots look really good and I'm happy with results and I'm a pretty tough critic.
I got 12 4x6 prints done and 3 5x7s and it totaled at $5.63.
Manny I don't know if they make pano-paper that size LOL. You may have to resize the file.

Sexy Printer Itchy.
I assume it's the Epson Pro 9000 series? At least I think it should be with the seven color cartridges.

Is it on photopaper or do you use some weird sort of material?
