Most will take a minimum of 2-3 days for colour printing and black and White 1-2 days. I went to Colour Lab Pro. The printing was fairly good quality and the turn over time was quick for me (B&W printing).

Check out:

I asked a similar question about a month ago. This was the thread: http://www.revscene.net/forums/poste....html?t=589881

What kind of print do you want? Try The Lab.

I dunno, man.... their website looks pretty sketchy. Horrible writing and grammar, not very professional. I can't trust a company that uses a family of bears metaphor to explain differences in printing methods. Haha...

Well, at least it's better than this website:
www.photographertoronto.com

Cool... what did you use to get the fractals look?

Next time try The Lab or G. King. They're going to be more expensive, but the service and quality will be much better.

There's a few print houses in Vancouver that can handle prints that size. Pac Blue, Dominion Blue & Arcprint are the places I've dealt with before. The paper stock you end up choosing will have an effect on the speed they can print to.
