Same applies to pictures from the lab actually. So there's no difference really

Ink.photos will age and fade faster.
As long as you frame them, and keep them away from direct sunlight, you're going to be fine! {up}

Bullcrap. With a good photo printer, good photo paper and good ink you will get great pictures. It's cheaper and easier. I haven't printed any photos at lab for years.

I agree completely. Printing at a photo lab is just a big waste of time and money, when you have a home printer that's made for producing photos. Just look at all of my successes (except Freddie Highmore)... those are all pictures that I printed myself to send out.

This gives me the option to use either, and possibly even change up how I have them displayed as time goes on. If you want to find a picture that's big enough to look good as an 8.5x11 or 8x10, then search for computer wallpaper on Google of the film or TV show that the actor is in. You can also just click "All Sizes", or "Show Similar" once you find a picture you like on Google Images. Eventually a large enough one will come along! 8) Also, if you need help with sizing the photo to the paper perfectly, Copy/Paste it on over to Paint (I find that a .2 inch border works perfectly!).
I've never thought of that before that's a great idea thanks
I'll do some testing out first and I'll try a 5x7. {up}
