Last fall, Adobe came to campus and gave an all- day seminar about their new CS4 products. I really enjoyed the new functionality of Photoshop including their improved panoramic stitcher. The lecturer mentioned something to the class which blew me away. He said that you could print color photos accurately from Costco.
Costco hired Dry Creek Photo to color profile every one of their photo printers and place those profiles on the web. The benefit of having the color profile of a specific printer is that you can accurately adjust your photograph in Photoshop to show you what the print is going to look like. How many times have you gotten photos back and the seem too dark?
So the question is why spend the money for expensive photo printing when you can go to Costco and get a Polish dog and a Coke for $1.50? Be sure to follow all of the instructions on the Dry Creek site for best results.
