Buying Prints online.

[Rocket]

I 'am having trouble with my printing and I know its because i need my system calibrated with a good product, however at this point funds are tight.

As i have accounts with both Photobox and Photobucket I was hoping to have some prints done via one of these. I read some where and now cannot find either here or on P/Box or P/Bucket about them calibrating/adjusting the photo,
Can these above calibrate your picture so it comes out as it should i.e not to dark etc.As at the moment my printer is printing to dark.
I don't seem to be able to find it on there websites, iam sure its there but dam if i can see it...

Thanks

Ask them nicely and they'll send you a reference print. I've a call'd monitor and I found the reference was fairly close.

Sounds to me as if you have the brightness of the monitor turned up to high

Thanks Chappers, looking into it now.
I have made some changes with my Adobe Gamma, which has some good results..
