we ordered eight by ten prince from ten different web sites and in this video
we're gonna tell you
which ones are the best and which ones were not so Print Services Comparison: Which Website Makes the Best Prints? !!! great this video is made possible by fracture
fracture prints or photos and David colored directly to class
it the picture frame and mount Paul and one
to get your photo printed on bosko to fracture me dot com
and use the coupon code Chelsea or Tony
to get fifteen-percent of but you should use the coupon code
Chelsea because there's a competition
club flyer printing and the guy fractured told me that I'm winning we all might change again
back use the name of the person that you feel like has the most
camera trivia story in their head you should use
the name and the person that is the cutest
or tallest am and earliest
him thank you and now on yeah
something to say regarding conflict of interest fractured does not
make a by
friends like these that were you make glass prints only they're
very specialized they're not included in this competition
that would be biased right but they are making this video possible
and they're good option so
why not print at home we definitely
tried printing at home for an extended period time with model different
printers
but I always found was the different and have been more expensive because
Inc for printers is expensive but also
I with your hit rate on printing at home they had to print everything like two or
three times a year or less thing is I've never had one of those really large
expensive
professional printers but the thousands of dollars yeah
and then take a lot of space I mostly the Internet archival you there so you
make a present if I get a right and then you hang onto onto your letter will be
updated
printing sending out to an Internet service providers also this problems the
prints are higher quality
they last longer and you don't have to pay for your scrubs
so for that reason which is always send out our stuff we gave up on printing at
home
and I that's right how most people do too but about one hour photo services
the terrible writer just just always pretty bad
we didn't include any of those and this review but we have done them before an
appendage
your and they we haven't had I have much luck
right well anyone are printing service has the printer on
site so when you go to Walmart or the pharmacy or whatever there is using the
whole
printer there is being run by whoever happens to work there not some sort
expert so they don't have the big machinery that makes good quality
archival prints a pretty much look like the Prince you get
out of a bubble jet and they to stockholder so we don't recommend those
either
instead we recommend sending out to one of the site yes to the
that we review
today were Bay photo a teenage Color Lab
W HCC Walmart Adorama pics
nations photo lab ampex prodi PI
Shutterfly CG pro print these are on the US but if you're outside the US I hope
you'll
take into consideration the factors that we're looking at
and evaluate another printers in your own country but these do all ship
throughout the US we judged each
photo on a
scale using the following criteria:
color tone exposure clarity the finish in way
and the photo packaging ordering jeans and also the price
so who are the winners well as also add that this was a blind test so when we
were looking at the photos and rating and we didn't know which photo we were
raiding until we were done
we use dem pics for years and we were really surprised to find that they're
the best
we like them we hadn't used a bunch of different printing services so
it was a good surprise so yet ampex 49 and
points
two dollars and nine cents I like the photo so much that
I A put it in a frame so the tap is Ben
but the colors great the papers a good quality
I it sharp and as you look at the picture you can see why we chose this
particular picture it's got a lot of skin tones which are important in a
lottery by
but also has a really rich dynamic range part
the
almost why and then there are just deep deep shadows wanna make sure the printer
got natural skin tones
and cover that complete dynamic range with great contrast
W HC see came in second place
they had great skin tones they're also clear
didn't think they were quite is rich
as and pics but it was Billy a close second
and
points and my cam pics the website was
also pretty easy to use neck India a big factor
to some these web sites had a really difficult the tools
to get your pictures actually up yeah if the downplayed couple
downloading uploading Taylor suffered I'm one thing I liked about wht see is
that they give you samples
have all the different papers luster and metallic and linen texture
so the next time you on order with them if you would like to try something
different
you have a good idea what you're gonna like death knights
to either and Pixar wht CR great choices in the US again
not sponsors here in third place
present strong feelings about the API these were free samples
they do put a watermark on them so you can't use them we got three free samples
their packaging was good and I also came with candy you have candy
they get a little bit they get a little push for the candy
the prints were pretty good became a little more pink
in the skin tones yeah that's why they didn't get a perfect score
I am but I also like that they provided again samples of all the different
finishes like specialty payroll and Matt
and they also gave you samples of cards
so that if you want to get them printed for your clients to yourself you could
see examples
but they deal and it's really beautiful and Vikings address the question how
some people are thinking
why would the colors vary from one printing service to another
because after all the colors are embedded in your pictures should be the
same but it doesn't work that way cuz you taking a digital image
and then printing it and it depends on the printer that the use
so these printers will have profiles and you could theoretically go in an
embedded
in my room and try to match up manually on
but for the most part most practical way to do things is to allow the printing
service
to adjust your pictures to get the colors perfect and a good printing
service will look at every single picture and use their knowledge of how
their printer is working
to make sure the colors come on nationalism company that person and
they're making the adjustment so individual printing services can give
you very different result to the same pictures speaking at that
next bisbee a photo and I had a bit of a problem with their color
I don't know if he'll be able to see it here the city is a bit hard to make for
that reason
it's difficult to show the prints
they photo
so the hair has green tones in it instead of golden
or even or in your warm tones as some green cooler towns
and everything else was okay with sharp the
paper quality was good but the colors were off so that's why they lost some
points
but again not terrible
out of 50 points that's dollars
it's a bargain
paper also has a really difficult to use website now
Bay photo uses most the time you have to use a separate
a blur to like a Windows app that runs and they have
an incredible number have different types the printer you can make
which is nice for those of you who want to make some creative printing get it
printed on wood
were like balls are like a hundred different formats in different shapes
and big sizes
and for that reason I do really use paper do I need to make a specialty like
fine art gallery print
they have just great options but the website is a pain to use its way easy to
use ampex I didn't
way I didn't take way too many points for the
finicky uploader just because once you have it it's gonna be a barrier to entry
but the
something that if you like their services Ben it's not gonna be a deal
breaker
yet what you've done it twice you'll have it work yeah so I didn't penalize
them too much for that I really focused more on the politics I think if you get
really good quality than you're willing to
to deal with some other scorekeeping yeah H&H Color Lab also in third place
I had again color problem her skin looks really pink
and it wasn't as clear as the other month see
nations I the paper quality
is thinner noticeably course I can't really show that to you
but I can feel that it's a bit flimsy year
it's pretty sharp the color looks pretty good its noticeably not as good as the
others but I think it's good enough
I think if you've just got this one alone would be happy with that
and now onto are not great I don't wanna column losers
because we just have one sample but in this limited experience
I'm we didn't have a very good experience for them the first one is CG
pro prints
it's a thicker print it's very thick and has more for texture to it
it makes it look very grainy and its pink warm
and not very sharp so awesome points
it's also eight dollars and fifty cents for this one prim
and it is thick and I can feel the difference but
I it's actually not good for the picture in los quality because
that paper texture your Adorama packs
look at that color let me show you let me show you a good one just to show the
difference here
that you can seeing you see that Justin it is so green
it's just awful you wouldn't want to put that
on your wall but the paper quality is good and a sharp
but when the colors that that what do you do with that another one with bad
color
is Walmart its unsharp its grainy
color is terrible
I would not recommend warmer
still better
there one hour Prince and
in last place was Shutterfly a
this one not only was the color of the Spurs
an example good color the the Shutterfly but
her face was blown out details lost
it's really pink they tried to bring up the shadows when they should not have a
fair they had had a person overlooking this photo they would have said
know there were supposed to be deep shadows and not raise them so it's clear
to me that nobody
looked at this and thought that their computer just didn't know what to do
with the print
yeah you can tell had some sort of auto exposure system that's all the dark
background and try to bring it up to gray and as
over expose the most important part maybe a different picture would have
turned a client seems like for the papers a bit then
and it's not the sharpest long but the our experience button to get
this video once again is brought to you by fracture
prices start at eighteen dollars you can get rectangle
or square format their free shipping on orders over $
dollars
and also their happiness guarantee so if you get your fracturing
you don't like it you can write to them and say hey don't like it no
fix it for you or give you your money back I've dealt with them
have been very friendly with me and yeah
you want refractory candor fractionally dot com and use the coupon code
Chelsea become safely packaged are easy to
hand
lower fracture sent us a sample one of our pictures and we hung in our living
room
thank you fracture looks great suggestions
we only reviewed
places we think we're totally wrong
I was Shutterfly actually great but my picture just didn't get printed
in the right way think they could be better let us know in the comments

the other winners
