Snapfish is a pretty good service too. It's by HP. You seem to get loads of free printing credits and only ever have to pay a couple of pounds P&P, and at the moment they have a free P&P offer on too! :Smirk:

I think I've used them before and was impressed. If it's the same place, I use their mug-printing service.

Do you know if Snapfish keep the colour profiles that are embedded in an image or do they strip it out?

Correcting Color

Snapfish's color corrector uses a standard, automated formula to adjust brightness, contrast, color balance, and intensity. It can greatly improve the accuracy of your photo's color.

1. From your photo library, an album, or an individual photo page, click 'edit & organize' in the blue menu on the right side of the page.
Tip: If you begin on an individual photo page, you won't have to choose your photo later.
2. Then select 'fix & enhance' from the list below.
3. If you began on an album page or in your photo library, select the photo you'd like to edit.
4. On the following page, you'll see the photo you selected and various icons and tabs next to it.
5. Click on the blue 'fix' tab to the right of your photo.
6. Click on the 'auto correct photo' icon.
7. When you click 'auto correct,' Snapfish's color corrector will adjust your photo for the best possible brightness, color balance, and intensity.
8. When you click 'auto contrast,' Snapfish's contrast corrector will adjust your photo for the best possible color contrast.
9. The corrected color will remain unless you click the 'original' icon to revert to your original photo.


only thing remotely linked that i could find. and its about editing photos using there program or interface or something.
