Protect Your Print on Pickup! • No matter where you go, protect your prints from damage • Take a cardboard insert, bag, box, or something to put your prints into. • Look for damage on your prints when you pick them up. • If the lab mishandled them before they even give them to you, ask for them to be reprinted. • If the prints are too dark, or otherwise NOT acceptable, DON’T accept them. You don’t have to pay if you don’t like them. If you bring them to me, and they are unacceptable, it will be harder to get your money back.

Locate where you put your pictures…hopefully in the picture folder.
You may need to “Correct” the brightness or contrast of the image. • But watch out, until you know how your monitor compares to what you will get from a print, you should avoid making to many “Corrections”. • After you have printed a couple of prints, you will know how things look on your monitor compared to what you will get from the store. This is called manually calibrating for color
