I use glossy photo paper and print on my printer at home. I always make sure i click "large" when looking for a picture on Google images. It's pretty easy.

I get my pictures from mainly these sites and then I print mine with a photo printer on photo paper. Hope this helps.

I go to a store/photo lab and have them printed.

There are also websites you can use to print photos and they will ship them to you.

You have to be carefull when you take photos off of the internet though... b/c when you do that you are violating copywrite laws, and some companies won't print those photos for you.

Yeah I went to Walgreens one time and tried printing them. They said they couldn't sell them to me.
