There are places here that I am sure do them. But I was speaking of the drug store I've been using -- that did a fine job until the last roll with the Pentax 50mm. Which was why it was such a shock, and why at first I thought it was the lens. I just... er... revealed that I haven't sat down and restudied your treatise yet, haven't I? Ummm... been busy. (Even though I am writing today, I am still busy, using computer for other things.) When I said yellow ink, I *was* thinking of how my color inkjet here at home works. But the color balance wasn't set right then. I mean a whole range of color, or subtle range of color seems to be missing from the last prints. Their machine is very visible. Big -- about six feet long, but I have no idea what it is. And probably not a big as in a photo lab. Er... Something is wrong with those prints, and I was thinking of how to describe it. Color missing somewhere, in the yellow range. And so revealed my studying tardiness. Doe aka Marnie (Hanging head in shame. Hehehe.)
