Hey all -
I've got some vacation photos that I'd like to blow up (a couple of 8x10s and at least one that I'd like to print really large, like 20x30). They're digital photos, taken with our Canon Rebel XT.

Does anyone have experience with Shutterfly, Snapfish, Ofoto, or any other online developer that they can share? I want to frame these really nicely, and display them in my house, so a top-quality print is essential. The price is right with the online developers, but I would sacrifice my poor, tired Visa card for print quality. :)

Am I better off going to a local developer like Wolf Camera (that's the only one I can think of off the top of my head that's near me)?
Thanks in advance!
Amy

If you really want good quality prints, I would go with mpix.com. It takes forever to upload to their site, but the quality is excellent.

I have some 11x17 prints of my boys that I got from Ofoto. Very nice stuff.

I've had great luck with pics from Shutterfly and Wolf. I have done several enlargements through both and was happy with how they turned out.

Thanks, everyone! Now I just have to decide which ones to print (easier said than done, and I only have so much wall space!).
