Today after dropping off our dear Maggie and Anan, Mom and us kids went to Walmart so that I would be able to print off the several photographs that I will (hopefully :P) be entering in the county fair. All went well, or so it seemed at first. We used digital photo printers like usual, paid for them and walked out.
On first examination, the photos seemed okay, but after looking at them closely, I really didn't like them. After Walmart we went to several other stores and each time when we got back to the car I would look at the photos hoping that I might like them, but each time I disliked them even more. The color was all off. The once clear photos were blurry (and you probably know by now that I don't like it when my photos are blurry :P) And even worse, there were small horizontal lines runing across the photos.
After sighing over how the photos looked for the millionth time, my dear Mamita decided that we would go back and see if we could try re-printing them. We turned around, and headed back to Walmart to talk to photo developers. Mom wasn't able to see the horizontal lines that were in the photos, and neither could the one employe the was with the photo lab. :P For a while I thought that perhaps I was hulicitaing, or that the lines were and optical illusion, but thankfully the other younger photo assistant could see them. It is a terribly feeling to be able to see something that one one else can see. [insert sigh of relief] Thankfully we were able to reprint the photos.
OK. If you ever print photos at Walmart use the machine that prints your photos in an hour instead of the one that prints them immeadiatly.
1. You save money. The hour prints are much cheaper than the immeadiate ones.
2. The photos are better quality. The ones that are printed immeadiatly are printed. The ones that are done in an hour are actually developed. If you would like to see the differnce, just ask and I can show it to you.
It doesn't always take a whole hour either. If they aren't real busy then they can be done as soon as ten minutes. (and 10 minutes gives you enough time to go and buy a pair of awesome shoes!)
The ten minutes were definately worth it! I really like how they turned out! Thank you so much Mamita for going back! Yay! I feel happy!
And wow this one is long too.
(and please forgive all the gramatical errors and misspellings cause it is kind of past my bed time, and my mind is tired :P)
