Good digital prints in Auckland?

[ADMS]

I have used Factory Frames a few times and they do a good job. The last one I had framed they spent quite some time to find a matte colour that worked with the image.

As for printing images I use WOW digital in Meadowlands (South East Ak). They do a great job and I've never had a problem and they are very helpful.

I also use WOW Digital in Meadowlands in Howick and I am always pleased with the results. You can pay $10 to become a Gold Member that reduces your print costs - I just had 3 X 8"X12" prints done for $5 each and they look great!

Factory frames are very good as well - most people hunt through the pre-cut mounts not realizing they will cut one on request if you ask.

Cheers

Any Kodak Express. Ask for prints through their wet lab forget the dye-sub. I work in a Kodak Express up North (interest declared). Croxley/Nutech is the head office phone them if you need address's or a phone number.

For inexpensive but quite good prints I use snapfish (former digitalmax). For best quality I use pcl. Pcl is much more expensive but their quality is great. In december I printed 85x120cm there and was totally happy with it. For framing I use either frames from the warehouse or from factory frames for better quality.

I thought I'd be clever and do a night school course in picture framing. Started two weeks ago, really enjoying it so far, although I should have realised that it'd be a tad expensive with buying all the materials , but hey, it'll still work out cheaper than getting it done professionally and I have chosen to frame three photos I bought in London and they're not exactly small.

But I have been told about a place called Factory Frames (www.factoryframes.co.nz) in Apollo Drive. Apparently they cut the mat board to your requirements and prepare the framing but you put it all together. I'm going to have a look next weekend, should be an interesting shop to look round

Swampy - where are you doing the framing course? Any good? How much was it?
