I am looking for a site to store wedding proofs on... about 200-300 per wedding. I have heard good things about photoreflect.com, and wondered if anyone on here has ever used it. OR.... what sites do you reccomend?

Also, what online photo printing sites offer back printing? I know dotphoto.com does, but the last two times and I used their services I was VERY unpleased with them! All the people in my photos looked like wax figures!! I like snapfish, but they don't offer the back printing. And I like that for when I have big orders, because there are so many prints I have to sign then. Back printing is so much easier!

Thanks,
Lorrie

I use photoreflect and love it but don't know if any of the labtricity labs offer back printing. Never thought about it.

Okay, question sounded stupid... I just never imagined anyone would want to print on the back. So expand my horizons here ... why would you want to do that?

Also to help explain: I imagined "back printing" might have something more to do with the process ... how the prints get made. Or another thought I had was whether it meant that the site merely "takes orders" and you fulfill the orders by printing them yourself (front printing) versus having the site print them (back printing). See how it wasn't so obvious?

You'd want to do that with a studio imprint perhaps -

Don't know what you want to print on the back of your prints. Winkflash puts the file name and about 20 characters of what you put in the remarks section on the back of 8x10s.

AHA! Now that makes a lot of sense. Especially if you were to print a bunch of proofs. Then it would be easy for the customer to tell you which proof to enlarge!

Costco has options for the backprinting with their online service. I think you can choose from combinations of standard info and custom text (e.g. a copyright notice) up to (I think) 30 characters.

Online albums are hosted by Snapfish. Only problem is you can't set prices there if ordering is enabled, so I'm not sure it's good to send a customer there. Also, you have to be a Costco member to order there, but it's very cheap (4x6 = $0.17, 8x10 = $1.99) and excellent quality at the store I go to.
