PmSonic - to be honest it is difficult for me to make a judgement! I had just got my 20D and it was a handheld shot, no settings changed on the camera and no post processing! but in saying that i was very impressed!! If it was a properly taken shot I am sure it would be excellent! I am definately going to get one done!!

Ahoy all!
Photobox is who I use and also recently Shutterfly.com and on the odd occassion BonusPrint.com.
Either way, you'll get great results in my experience with any of them.

i received 3 30x20 prints today from this offer. all 3 taken on my 350d and 2 had been quite cropped quite a lot to get the image needed/wanted. i used photo shop to resize to the desired 30x20 with 254dpi and saved at maximum quality jpg.
Using CS2's fantastic processing to ensure that i sent the exact number of "dots" to be printed the results are fantastic! i had taken two orders for smaller posters from a recent bike race days before this offer came up so i was able to upgrade the size and increase my profit at the same time -meaning a new 50mm prime courtesy of photobox.
Also every order gives you another 50mg storage on their site, which is nce for hosting event images
(oh and i was using the kit lens, so the original image was average at best)
