Actually it wasn't that much work, the images were straight back from the lab, and the gallery was generated by PSCS. The real downside is paying for the development and scanning while thinking at the back of my mind it would't be practically free if I had an istD!
Although, you do remind me that I need to fix up some of the shots, mainly contrast masking for shadowed faces. Thanks for looking through them Jens :) Cheers, Ryan PS.
