New Printer

Following my previous post, Peter sent me details of an on-line print company, DS Colour Labs. I'm not really into on-line shopping but I thought I would have a go. I wanted images 15" x 10" but to get them to go over email, I reduced the image size down to 2mb. I was thinking that they would be grainy, or even pixilated, but, at only 85p a go, well it would be rude not to give them a chance. I filled in all their boxes and pressed send. I was looking to have 5 pics done. This was on the Sunday night. On Wednesday morning, Postman Pat arrived at 10:00 am with my prints. Beautiful. I wasn't happy with one, but that was my fault, not theirs. If I was going to have that one reprinted, then I might as well get them to print the rest of the panel and have them all printed the same way and on the same paper. Again I ordered on Sunday, and this time I had a note shoved through the door from Postman Pat, on TUESDAY at 10:30. They were waiting for me at the sorting office! Now, I know that I was looking for a bit of interest from my printer, or at least a bit of service, this wasn't quite what I had in mind. The speed, the quality, the price. Unbeatable. If, like me, you don't have an A3 printer, and you have yours done retail, I can only suggest that you give this lot a go. Peter recommeded them to me, and I have no hesitation in endorsing his opinion. NOW.............
Do you remember? We had a presentation some time in the early spring and the speaker talked about the guy who did his mounts. This was another internet site.................. but which one? Again, please either leave a comment here, or email me direct.
