I framed one I did a while ago that I printed on a machine at Harvey Norman. The Paper was thinner than I print at home and it was faded away within about 7-8 months, even my Epson prints last longer than that.

Took it to Camera House (the McDonalds of photo prints ! :D .

Got a 8" x 10" print which has a really big white border both at top and bottom. However the middle contained the full image. Pretty happy with the result considering the price. Have to decide whether to use the guillotine to take out the border - probably will.

Snapshot is very good, reliable and cheap. However have doubts on what you can achieve with wider landscape shots. Would be very interested in what your outcome is. Look forward to your feedback Nigel !
