Hi All
Has anyone used 'Photo Smile' in Croydon for their printing?
Many thanks

ProAm Imaging offer a very quick turn round; submit your images this morning and you should get them back tomorrow (or the following day at the very least). P&P is a bit steep but the more images you send them the cheaper per image it costs.

They are also an advertiser in the Exhibition Catalogue so patronage is not obligatory. Nor do you get a discount!

David A Beard.

Hi
Thank you Sarah and David. I haven't had much success with internet printers. It's probably me.
Anyway, I took my prints into 'Photo Smile' and am quite pleased with the results. The lady proprietor was very helpful and knowledgeable.
Much better than the one in West Wickham or Snappy Snaps in Croydon.
Hope to see you all tonight.

P&P is a bit steep


With ProAM I used their £10 service + £6 postage for 16 A4 sized images 12 x 8 inches; 12 x 9 inches.
That makes it £1 a print compared to £5 a print at your local stores.
Sent some images via WeTransfer, a free service, very late on Thursday night which they had on Friday morning. Every time they have been back by Royal Mail on Saturday, but this time they are still not here today Monday. As long as they are here Wednesday, I can use one or two images in the 5th Print Competition hopefully! They tell me they were posted on Friday.
