Hi all,

my friend and i have a photo of trucks where his dad and my dad drove in the 70's. We want to get it scanned to share, but its proving difficult. Tried Boots/Jessops etc, but their scanners only do upto A4!!
The photo is 48cmx38cm. Anyone know where it could be done?

are the pictures framed or are they rolled up prints

There are some print production shops that will scan large unframed pictures.

Cheers H, know where?

how much you looking to spend and if you dont mind me asking what do you want to do with the scans
ie print, screen save you get the picture (no pun intended)

 

Lol...


Just want 2 prints of original, Snappy snaps said they could do it for £85, apparently they do it 4 stages or somethin!!

Thanks Mof.

 

Try www.photobox.co.uk

 

well it depends on the size picture you want but anything upto 18inx12in i can sort out for you on photographic paper larger and it has to be inkjet, this site helping me studie A+ so I would do it for green membership beat that snappy snaps, But i do live in dartford delivery would be up to you.

 

Photobox is an online service, you have to upload your images, you would need scans first, there great for photobooks though

 

Thanks Mof,

just spoke to me mate and hes gonna try a printers over the ind est today.

But i appreciate the thought and help, i'll let you know what happens!!

Good luck and do let me know

 

You could scan it in 4 sections and join them in photoshop, my skills in that area are not so good, but there is probably one or two folks here who could do a good job.

 

yes this is a good way to go about it and its quite ease to do.
