I was recommended to try out kellards online digital printing versus
my own printer.
They were offering 15 free 4x6 to try them, so I downloaded thier free
software and uploaded my images, they offer sizes from wallets to
12x18, glossy and matte, with white border or without. I chose some
glossy, some matte regular and bordered. Once uploaded I recieved a
email confimation. The next day I recieved an email that the order was
complete and was shipped out. I received the order 3 days later via
usps. I have to tell you I have tried ofoto and shutterfly and was
happy, but these were better looking. First of all they use Kodak
Royal Paper which has a rich feel and is suppose to be vibrant and
colorful. Plus they did some color and density corections and
eliminated red eye on one of the images i had. I think I found someone
to do all my digital work. They are cost effective and good quality
prints.
Just thought i might share my experience with someone and I'm sure you
will be happy with them as well.

If I'm right, it's also extremely stupid spam - the berk forgot the link

Just remember that red eye removal will be almost certain charged in the
future. Always is and it's way better (and cheaper) to do it by yourself.
Second - if those are printouts, they still can't compare with lab made
ones. Prints fade out, while laboratory made pictures doesn't, also if you
look closely, they look better. So, try lab ones, too before you decide.

Looks like this is the only message yanky@bellatlantic.net has
ever shared on Usenet.

If anyone does want to take them up on the 15 free 4x6 prints,
be sure and see their policies.html page, since the offer isn't
noted on their main page. It appears to be good through
2/28/04.

Another quick web-search shows that jakman252@yahoo.com is the

"jake mantel", "Jack Mandle", and "john dell". These identities
plug Kellards on Usenet and web sites, and do essentially
nothing else.

He's been plugging them since August 2002. This month, over a
year later, and he's still reporting "I just signed up with

person. At http://www.photo.net/community/links we read:

I was frightened by the idea of a conspiracy that was
causing it all.
But then I was terrified that maybe there was no plan,
really. Is this unpleasant mess all a mistake?

Hi, SleeperMan,

Can you tell me, or refer me to a site, that describes the primary
difference between 'prints' and laboratory made pictures, with regards to
digital or film?

Is it simply that with labs you can ask for more customization and
corrections, and superior papers, while with prints (i.e. from the
drugstore or online processing) you have to settle for a limited amount
of these?

Sincerely,
Bruce

This is not true - all prints fade eventually. Wilhelm tests Kodak Ektacolor B
prints at 22 years and Fuji Crystal Archive prints at 60 years, while both HP
and Epson have inkjet prints that exceed the photo prints for lightfastness.
See http://www.wilhelm-research.com/pdf/...ineSept_03.pdf for a
specific article and http://www.wilhelm-research.com/ for more details.
