New printing company after RGB

I used the Brighouse printing service during the last few days and pleased to report the service and quality of prints is rather better than I have been getting elsewhere. They will give us the discounted rate which ammounts to £1.50 for an 18 x 12" prints with Gloss, matte, lustre, pearl and metallic finishes. I have used the lustre type prints and have been very pleased with it (will bring some samples into the club for members to view). They would prefer us to have a club named account that would allow us to transfer large files onto their hard drive and be ready a few days later to collect. All very civilised, and for those who do not have their own printers this may be a very good option. See me at the club if you want further details. Follow the link above to go to their web site. Dave
