Had to jump in here and have a good old moan about a photo processing shop I recently went to. I foolishly thought as they made their money developing and printing photos that they might take a little pride in what they were doing. I ordered 9 8x10 prints. Turnaround time was two days. I went to pick them up and the assistant showed them to me. The first thing I said was "they aren't very good are they. Snow isn't pink" followed by "my tri-coloured dog shouldn't be three shades of green". Hubby was with me, asked why the prints where the colour they were. Assistant #1 stared blankly, assistant #2 waffled about turning channels up bla bla. Waited for offer to re-do prints. It wasn't forthcoming. They lost my custom. I went to Blacks and had them re-done.
