Help needed - metal prints: Does anyone use a online company that does metal prints? Walgreens no longer does them. Costco requires a membership number and I am not a member.

Does anyone use a online company that does metal prints? Walgreens no longer does them. Costco requires a membership number and I am not a member. Shutterfly website does not work in spite of offering metal prints.

With the demise of photo stores, on line seems the only option. Just can't find something user friendly to use.

Any success you have had would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Again, Bay Photo. Top lab used by professionals. I've seen some great metal prints from them.

MPIX has beautiful metal prints. I use them direct and through my web company Zenfolio.

I have found a smaller lab in the Northern California area, Laserlight Prints (http://www.laserlightprints.com ) whose prints are of higher quality than either Bay or MPIX - you might want to give them a try.

I have used Bay Photo for years...the best that I have found but expensive. MPIX out of NY does a good job too--more reasonable. I have tried several, but for overall quality you cannot beat Bay Photo, the professional's choice for trade shows. They ship large prints in a wood crate and ship them Fed Ex which makes the transaction more expensive.

Definitely Bay Photo.

Depending on how many prints you do in a year the Costco membership may more than pay for itself. If you have one near you the gas station would make it a slam dunk.
