So folks..what has worked you in terms for you to take your digital shots to Print and then put them albums.

Am being plain lazy and want to know who has done some research in doing this. I have nearly 300 good pics ( of course they are good) that I want to print and have a great album. Some I want to enlarge to show off on the walls.

Tell me what you have done...any sites you would recommend..or is Walgreens and Costco still cheaper!

Thanks a bunch!!

Hi Madhu,

I did some research on the various printers last August or so, and I was actually very surprised at how few comparisons and decent reviews I could find. Considering how popular digital photography is becoming, and that there are a ton of places to get prints, I expected to find a lot of opinions.

I ended up going with Sony's ImageStation. Not the first name that comes to mind for printing photos, but they did well in the few reviews I could find, and had some very cheap prices at the time. That's one thing to note, there's always a special running at one of the big places, so just look around if cost is an issue. I think I ended up paying like a dime per 3x5 or something really good, and I was very pleased with the quality and delivery time.

That said, next time I'll probably go with Kodak/Ofoto (they're the same company now). They seem to generally elicit good feedback on quality, and it's integrated really slickly into iPhoto (a nice plus for a Mac nerd). I'll be interested to hear what others think, though.
