I find large photos on google.com and print them myself at a local store. Some stores are strict on copyrights and won't print photos with celebrities in them, but I have found a store that does them with no complaints.

Go to google.com and type in the name of the person you want to find a photo of. Hit search.

At the top there is a tab that says images. Click it.

Under the name you searched are 3 tabs: web> images show options.

Click show images.

Under any size, click large. The photos shown will be the best quality to print, but if you can't find any under that, go to medium. I wouldn't go any smaller than that though.

Click the image you like. If you are still in google, it will have a blue line at the top that says "see full size image Click it.

Right click on the photo and it should give you many options. One is save picture. Click it and save it in a file on your computer.

Now you can put it on a CD to take it to a store to print or upload it to an online printer.

Hope this helped. {up}

I find the highest quality images I can on Google, then upload them to the Walgreen's website and have them printed off at the nearest location. It cost $2.99 per 8x10 photo. They are printed on quality photo paper and you can choose from either glossy or matte finish. They turn out great!

I've been doing the same, except I've been going to Target and printing them out myself on their photo machines. I forget exactly what the cost is, but I like having full control over how my picture comes out. The pictures are printed on Kodak paper. I don't have a cd burner, so I use a flash drive instead.

And if I can't find an image big enough to make an 8x10, I will make a custom 4x6 or 5x7 photo using stuff I find online with Microsoft Paint.

Or....if you don't want to hassle with all that you can try several places that sell the photographs. www.celebrity8x10s.com is one place and they offer a sale section where you can buy photos (on photographic paper) for between US$.89 and US$2.99 and they have a large selection. Their main section sells photos for US$5.99.

www.moviemarket.com and www.moviemarket.uk is another site with both US and UK locations and their inventory seems to be all priced at US$5.99

Once you have the photo you want on a disk, take it to the store and the machine will ask you what size you want it printed.
