I have been using Snapfish (Jessops) but have been disappointed with the colours, they are not as bright as when I view them on my monitor, be it in Photoshop Elements, My Pictures or ZoomBrowser. Is this normal or am I missing doing something?
Any recommendations for printing elsewhere would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Jeeps:)

Hi Jeeps,
I just tried Photobox (on line) and have been very pleased with the results. Nice bright colours and you get to choose whether to have 'shrink to fit' on your pics so you don't loose any of the edges in cropping. I tried them through the ad that comes up on the amazon uk page where you can sign up and get 60 prints free.
I had a coupon for prints at Jessops store and was disappointed with the colours too.

Thanks Lisa, I will give Photobox a try. Glad it wasn't just me disappointed with Jessops, was beginning to think I was too picky :)

I also use Photobox, their service is excellent and I have had a couple of large prints done as well - the colour was spot on and I am very picky about colours.
Hope you get better results.

I've only just come across this post now and I just wanted to add my vote for Photobox.
I've been using them for several years (they used to have an office here in Dublin) and I have never had any complaint about my photos.
Got prints from Boots once because they are near but I was very disapointed with the quality.
If you order from Photobox you'll never go any where else for prints :-)
