Hii,
i was wondering where the best place to get photos printed are.
i normally print my own but the ink is getting way to expensive.
i used to print my photos at Wal-Mart but they refused to print them due to copyright so ill never go there again.
has anyone gone to a place and not gotten in trouble for copyright?
if so, where?
thanks

I suggest that you go and print them off of kodakgallery.com THey are proffesional photo printers. they charge you 15 cents for an 4X6 but they charge around 3 bucks or an 8X10. I still think they are cheap, they do not stop you from printing copyrighted photos, and they ship them to you! (shipping is around 1.50 for a few 8X10's and 4X6'S.) Also, they ship and get to you in around a week! If you have any more questions do not be afraid to ask!

Do you get the option of Glossy or Matte type Photo paper? And do you need a special program to be able to upload the photos to the site?

yes, you can choose glossy or matte. and also, you do not need any program! make an account, take pics from the internet, drag them to your home screen and then when you go to the upload page, click on the photo and it will upload! like photobucket!

I get my photos printed at Walgreens. My friend and I know the photo guy that works there so he prints our photos right away, sometimes gives us discounts. But the first Walgreens I went to had problems with copyrights.
There is a store in NYC I used to go to called AdoramaPix (
http://adoramapix.com/). In my experiences, they have always printed quality 8x10s. You can choose between royal glossy, matte, lustre, metallic and endura silk. $1.95 per 8x10, but they have $1 sales sometimes. They also have 16x20 photo sales for $4.95. Shipping is a flat rate no matter how many photos you order. The photo paper is quality paper like cardstock not flimsy paper. The only problem I had with their 8x10s is that the photos attract more fingerprints.
I've been to CVS once, the one I went to didn't care about copyrights and printed our photos.

sorry for the double post but i found photos on google that id like to print and i did right click---> properties---> details and under the copyright and authors section there was nothing so does that mean theres no copyright attached?

it could mean that there is no copyright....or it also could mean it was copied from a copyrighted photo. I still highly suggest kodakgallery.com because you can print ANY photo, it ships quickly for 1.50, you choose between glossy and matte, the photos are only 15 cents, and when you make a new account, you get 50 FREE 4X6 PHOTOS. thats alot of photos for autographs!
