What sort of camera? What was the subject? IF a point and shoot camera some can change the ISO setting on the camera, so it may have upped it to a higher number, so increasing the "grain" in the image. Do you know what ISO the image was taken at?

Taking-up the reins of the digital/online printing thread..


I'm looking for a place to store, manage, print and share our faaamily photos.

I tried Photobox and liked it (and the prints too) but I forgot that half the point of doing was so that the faaamily could order prints too. And much of the faaamily lived overseas.


Any ideas?

*Bob* Have a look at Flickr. It's a global service. You can add friends and family as contacts so that they can download pictures directly from your account or order prints via Flickr. It's free for a limited 100mb per month but for a smallish fee you get the premium service with full functionality.

I might let your wife look at them, Keef. She looks like the trustworthy sort.


I did initially think of Flickr, but after an (amittedly cursory) inspection I was put-off by the low freebie photo limit, talk of payments US dollars and general yahoo-ness of it all. As much as anything on the grounds that it if put me off even slightly, Auntie Thingy would lose interest immediately.


I liked Photobox because it's just a case up upload, print, next day BOSH. And their customer services seems small enough to be immediate and personal when I had some queries.


They do deliver overseas for a couple of quid extra.. but with one of our Earth Pounds buying a slap-up feed for 8 in, say, Australia, they might be put-off by the cost.

    • Agree that you have to be so careful dogs in this heat… but please dont judge so quickly.  Its one thing if you see a dog at midday being thrown the ball endlessly, but if you see a dog en route / somewhere - You dont know if that dog was being walked to the vet for an emergency appointment.. or taken to a friend’s house that is cooler etc.  And if they live in a flat, they might desperately need to be taken out for a quick pee / poo ! 
    • I know,  absolutely crazy.  A dog has never died because it didn't have a walk, but dogs do die if walked in this heat. Perhaps the owners should put on a thick fur coat, take their shoes off and jog round the pavements, and see how that feels! 🤬
    • I bought myself a litter picker from Amazon and do go round and pick up . No one else does. I guess they just don't have the time what with job obligations and kids etc. Question. ...should we pay more council tax in return for a better service? This debate could go on forever.
    • Walking around ED at lunchtime shocked at the amount of owners walking their dogs. Do they not realise  they are risking their dogs life by doing this?
