Which one do you use?

Snapfish
or
shutterfly?
I want to make an account so we can people send their pics of the wedding there.

Re: Which one do you use?

I use snapfish for prints that I order for myself, BUT I am using Flickr for the account for guests to send their photos to. I posted recently my reasoning for this, it may have been here or BHB, I can't remember, but I chose Flickr because it's strictly an album, you can't order prints from there. I didn't want a guest to decide to order and put their cc info in, and have it be logged for anyone to order on their dime, or us for that matter. Not that I don't trust our guests, but I'd rather do a little extra work and right click save as from Flickr and upload directly to my own personal Snapfish account.

When you save the pics from there are they the same size though?

I'm pretty sure...when you're logged in, you have the option of viewing and downloading the higher resolution image, and if you save that one and upload to snapfish, you won't be told that it's not high-res enough to print at a certain size. Sometimes you can't print larger than a 4x6 without it being pixelated if the file isn't high-res enough. I've never had a problem.

Thanks I'll look into it.
