Hi David, Can I ask what other photo shops you have used and your experiences. I started with ICD (which is basically Photobox I think) and they print via fuji which gives a very red glow to skin tones (ok for low end cameras that produce a blueish skin tone) so my pictures looked like everyone had ...
